Weekend update!

I'm sitting quietly in my office when I hear a big crash. Crashes aren't all that rare in this house. Youthful exuberance, knotheaded kids, however you put it. But this one sounded like a wall fell over. Turns out it almost did. Chris and Nick were… what, wrestling? Jostling? Brawling? Who's to know? Anyway, now there's a nick-torso-sized hole in the basement wall. Nick doesn't have any bruises. The basement is now very ...clean. All is well.

And for the second weekend in a row I've enjoyed playing scrabble. This week I lost most of my games and ten bucks besides. But I had a great time. One more step towards getting my scrabble joy back.

Life is a little tough these days. Taking a break. I will be back with more tales of grasshoppers and compost heaps and scrabble games soon.
Last night was the first meeting of the writing group. It is a quirky group. The other Odyssey grad seems like a good contact to have. He told me about a group led by Ted White near here. I’m thinking about looking into that one, too. I suppose I can’t be gone every evening. Anyway, this group (the one from last night) will force me to produce at least two pieces a month. That alone is worth the price of admission. Well, the price of gasoline, anyway.
It’s January 31. I’m sure you all know what that means! Yes, it’s time to give Marsh some advice. Here’s my little dilemma. I like the way this blog is going. (I know, some of you think it needs a bit more spice, excitement. To quote one reader: “what you need is more scrabble porn.”) But I also want to take advantage of some of the features of livejournal, particularly the community features. So I was thinking about (and actually made) a more scrabble-oriented version at livejournal. Maybe I will take some of my general scrabble posts here and expand upon them over there. I don’t know. I don’t really want to just have two identical blogs. Honestly, though, I don’t want to only post about scrabble over there, either. So. Advise me!
