I can has groovy box

I came home to a super obscurely groovy surprise tonight. [livejournal.com profile] willowgreen sent me a box of stuff from her stash of "obscure grooviness." Wee Hob and I were both delighted, he even though he's been under the weather for a couple of days with an odd spring fever (with actual fever. He had to come home from school yesterday, and he came in today and mostly slept tonight, with brief stints of soup eating and a shower.)

Anyway, thanks to [livejournal.com profile] willowgreen for your generosity. Now I have to come up with something equally groovy for [livejournal.com profile] snarkysneak.

But at the moment, bedtime I think. For those of you staying up later, I highly recommend the next chapter in Malora's continuing epic, Never Say Remember. Her dialogue is perfect, understated but full of meaning, and damned funny when it needs to be. She is the poster child for why people should finish a draft before posting anything-- this story is so tightly crafted and beautifully done, so unlike mine. Don't get me wrong, mine has its moments. But it wanders a lot, and I am seeing, reading it to Wee Hob the past couple of nights, how much could and should be cut. Ah well. Information for next time.

I had an idea regarding the groovy package thing, if you haven't already sent it. You mentioned that you don't know me very well and it was going to be tricky. If you want, just send me stuff you find groovy and that way I'll learn about you and I could send you a box of stuff I find groovy for you to learn about me. If you don't like the stuff I send, you could always give it to someone else!

I saw this last night, but LJ was not letting me log in to reply. Yeah, that's kinda what I was thinking, too. Still have to get some time at home to figure out what I find groovy, though. Probably sometime this week. Procrastination, thy name is hobgoblinn....

Hee hee! I am finally getting some ideas of what to send. Looking for a box now that's the right size. I haven't forgotten you, my dear mad scientist.....

Speaking of which, wonder what wee hob's up too? Better go check.
