Happy birthday to me!
Jun. 10th, 2008 05:07 pmOr in MMO gamer terms, "Reached RL Level 31". Hot one today, but it's not really phasing me much. I'm currently gathering a few things for a small party on the beach in Northampton, N.H. Lots of surprises ahead, no doubt! Never had a party on the beach before, so I'm looking forward to it.
I had to work today, but one of my crasy friends in the courtesy booth got on the PA system and announced to everyone that "one of our baggers is having a birthday today", so for an hour, random customers were coming up to me and wishing me a happy birthday, and all day, random people from the other departments were also doing the same.
Went to the Tewksbury Library last night. I realize most of the books I got out came from the Young Adult/Teen section, including one of L.J. Smith's "Vampire Diaries" books and Ellen Schreiber's "Vampire Kisses". I'll admit, the main character of the last one is a bit aggravating in her attempts at being gothic, but she's well-meaning (at least she's not one of those emo kids, oyyyy). Still, I've got an idea for a crossover fanfiction, featuring some of my own "Spooksville, Mass." characters (ie. the regular cast members of the series of suburban fantasy stories I'm working on). I might even be able to still sell the story, if I file off the serial numbers.

Those vampire stories sound interesting! I'll have to look them up!
Oh, unless it's too much trouble typing them up, I know I'd love to read more of your series of fantasy stories!
