Solitude. Quiet. Forget it! You're not alone any more. Get more what? Not sure I want any, much less more. Is that Pittsburgh for some kind of sausage? Help me here.

Pocky is a kind of candy, from Japan. Some walmarts carry it, but mine doesn't. However, Wegman's does! yay!
It's a very thin biscuit stick covered in chocolate or flavored creme. The Wegman's near me has it in 3 flavors. Strawberry Creme, Choclate, and Chocolate with Almonds.

Oh. That's pocky. Thanks for the info. Guess I could've googled it, but it's more fun this way. Sounds sort of like a low cal version of a KitKat. Have to check for them the next time I'm at Wegman's. I'm still stockpiling coffee pods. Sipping latte turns on my alter ego, the one that thinks she can do this. You know, She that wears leopard print capris and dyes her hair flame red. Yeah, her.
Characters firming up; setting is contemporary so that's not too big a deal; cleaning? nah. A path to the door will suffice.

I have soo much to do before Nov!
I have to create a thesis for a research project, write and edit artices for the newspaper, write all of my college essays, and do my senior project report. And that's only the writing stuff.
For my story, I still need to find every character's name.
And then there's the everyday homework. Ahh!
Does anyone know how to slow down time?!?
