argh

hmm, well, my laptop and i had coffee together for about 20 minutes earlier today. i wouldn't say much actual "writing" came out of that towards my story, but i'm thinking really hard about the forgiveness prompt. the whole concept of forgiveness is something that i've been thinking a LOT about lately (as in, months), so i thought it was kind of fateful to see it mentioned there. i wrote a whole facebook blog about it a while back, but i can't figure out how to post a link. so here's a quote about forgiveness, instead:
"Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it."
-Mark Twain

so i've got a few things bubbling and at least another 25 minutes to work on it tonight. i'm thinking about tea and telephone calls right now... but first we're taking my brother to the movies. hope everyone's having a good weekend. and marisa, i'm sure lots of us like coffee-related places, too : )
