Hey lovers

Sorry if that last post really upset any of you- I've been having really morbid stories that involve dogs just flowing out of me recently.

The interesting thing about that last story is the way I wrote it. I started it with a sentence pulled from a hat- the very first sentence about the mom being a good cook. I wrote for five minutes or so. Then I received a second sentence, I can't remember which is it but it is somewhere in the middle. I had to tweak and shift the story to make the sentence fit but I couldn't go back and change anything. Then I was given the very last sentence ten minutes after that, about falling towards the fender, and had to end the story around that.

It is a REALLY fun way to write. Granted, the version I posted is the final draft, so it is a bit more impressive than what I initially wrote, but still. I made up that plot on the first try. I want to high five myself.

TO CHANGE TOPICS COMPLETELY
I am going to be staying Utah over the spring. I want to get more school under my belt, I feel like I just moved, I feel really inspired here, and I may or may not have a boyfriend.

All valid reasons to stay, agreed?

And you need roommates! Don't forget that. We need to find people, STAT.
