A sign I was getting tired...

We have a dry-erase board on the side of the fridge where we can write down stuff we might need to buy at Safeway, Target, Trader Joes, etc. The other night I'd written down that we need a new nine-inch (well, 8x8x2) square cake pan, but written as 9" cake pan. So I glanced at that last night, and my brain kicked in:

"I want to cook things like some vegetables... [boom-crunch boom-crunch]...I want to peel and cook their insides.... [boom-crunch boom-crunch]..."

Yeah. I think I needed sleep.

Well, hell.

I never thought that writing a scene where an explosion occurs and showers debris onto the car of the POV character would be such a pain in the royall butt. I'm having a hell of a time trying to write it without making it sound stupid. X(


ETA: And why is it that my work laptop is absolutely flat-out refusing to connect online from home?? I am the ONLY person at my workplace that is having this problem, and no one can figure out why. X(
