More writing...

Monday I started Creative Writing class at PCC! I expected skinny girls with long soft sweaters and interesting hair. There were like 5 of them! What's with interesting hair and long sweaters? There was also the hard-edged t-shirt boy (who probably writes EXCELLENTLY from a little girl's perspective), a bunch of asians (its PCC!), some older folks taking the course for fun and a few "against-type" types.

Our first assignment was to take an object from a box and write what it led us to write... I ended up writing some drivel about Chinatown in Boston (I had some Chinesey curtain tassel) and that 24 hour diner that lived somewhere around there. (Though I considered writing something about T.)

Class 2 was Wednesday and the teacher lectured on whether or not there was a line between memoir and fiction which SO tied-in to my diner story-memoir-thing. The universe was aligned in that direction. I figure that whenever the universe aligns you know you're on the right path!

However - the universe was NOT aligned in my favor today as none of my alarms went off (OK so I apparently forgot to set 3 of them and the 4th "didn't take") and then I went and drove to work with my lunch sitting on the roof. I was looking forward to that lasagna!!!

Since I'm writing about writing... here's more of wot I writ:

I got TWO mentions this time 'round and may I comment that yes indeed I would make an excellent first lady but I enjoy your own take on Chinesy things; afterall it is your writing. Congrats on the education venture, I am going to sign up to make glass globes, not so much educational as downright dangerous ;)
