Verily, I say I really get myself into some messes. Like, I don’t think about what my own Saturday posts are going to look like. If you’re looking at this post and thinking, “Why the hell would I hire an editor who starts a sentence with an adverb … especially one like ‘verily,'” know that the prompt made me do it!
Yes, it’s my prompt.
I blame it on lack of coffee.
So, would you look at that! It’s Saturday already! The plan at this point is to take Alex to a movie today–either “The Kid Who Would Be King” or “A Dog’s Way Home.” I’m waiting for Alex to decide. I don’t particularly want to see either of them, but you do these sorts of things for your kids. Especially when they let you sleep in ’til 9:30. Aside from when they woke you up just to tell you they’re awake. It was still dark. I have no idea what time it was, but I told him to leave me alone and go downstairs, which he did.
Maybe he’ll sleep through the movie. I might too. We’ll have popcorn, so we’ll be sure to look “into it.”
At the moment I’m dying for my second cup of coffee. The dog is curled up in a ball on the loveseat beside me
and the kid is watching something that’s got him screaming and clapping. His laptop is turned the other way, so I don’t know what it is.
And me? I’m sitting here typing out whatever emerges from my under-caffeinated brain.
Awkwardly.

Oh my gosh, “verily” popped into my head, too! I punted it because I just couldn’t manage to get going with that one, though. Great job!

Today I am creating a sign on my blog that says “if you were sent here by Linda, go back to her blog. She is much nicer and look! A community blog challenge! Join the fun!”
I wouldn’t ask her to run your online bar though. It might go out of business… -OM
