A girl of some sort, who I suspect was also my cousin's ex (though no official statement has been released) arrived today. She was very short, even compared to me, and spoke Japanese fluently despite having been born in the US. Astonishing! She was awesome, and had tartan pants...
also they brought me potato cakes. Though en-route to coldness, they were still very tasty. I love it when people bring me food unannounced - no matter how not-hungry I might be.
I... also know exactly what I'm going to write next. It's an indescribable feeling, and if I could just now bring my vocabulary to bear: it's 'nice'. I've never really done anything longer than around 10k words, so this is going to be a real test on whether I can slow down plot progression and let some depth of character creep in. Story of my life
(For the record, it won't be a story of my life. That would be boring).
Ah, and a note for my... two or three loyal readers. NEVER underestimate the heat capacity of stir-through pasta sauce that's been in the fridge. It can easily cool an entire bowl of pasta to non-cheese-melting levels.
(as I said, the potato cakes were MOST WELCOME).

Potato cakes are rock. I had a deep-fried mars bar yesterday, it was full of heart attack and tasty goo.

Yes, any more than one of those per year, and I don't think I would!
