Heh.

John Scalzi has a book called "You’re Not Fooling Anyone When You Take Your Laptop into a Coffeeshop." It's going into a second printing of 500 copies, and from the looks of it (not having read it), it's about the writing life.

Of course, I'm probably one of those rare exceptions who actually does get writing done when I go to Starbucks. After all, they charge for their internet there--and I'm not distracted by a six-year-old, a cat-humping dog, or the fact that my house is a complete and total disaster area. Plus I have a yummy beverage to enjoy while I'm getting stuff actually written.

So, few distractions + no internet = productivity. At least for me.

Speaking of which. I really need to get something along those lines done today. Really really. Of course, this will happen in between four and a half hours of homeschooling, feeding my child delicious and nutritious meals, and trips to the library and Walmart. Not to mention the fact that "Bones" and "House MD" are on tonight.

AUGH.

Guess I should, um, get dressed. And possibly take a shower. *eyes clock and headdesks* At least I'm caught up with my flist?

Conversations with a six-year-old...

Boy: Does God see me having school?
Me: Yes, honey, God sees everything.
Boy: How?
Me: I don't know, He's God, He sees everything.
Boy: But how?
Me: He's God. He just does.
Boy: Well, maybe you should visit His website. This is why we have the internet.
