This was a particularly hard word to run with. I had assumed I’d do something with the d20 characters again, or anything with Wolfie or alternate versions of her (from the X-Men days or even the stuff with Talia in Colin and Syl) because a werewolf would be a pretty straightforward jumping off point.
This lead me to read through some of my old stuff. Unfinished stuff. Some of it a lot more unfinished than I’d realized. I assumed I’d written a lot more of of the projects than I guess I ever had. But, after opening about a half dozen projects and giving myself an excuse to not write at all, I finally got the better of myself and found a back way into this. Ted Fucking Nugent. I am not proud of this, but at least I got to talk about how much I despise that song. Even ignoring the guy as he’s been for the last ten or more years in a political sense, his music was never really to my tastes. Except for Damn Yankees. And that’s really more about Shaw and Blades. I guess it’s like Vinnie Vincent Invasion. I listened to their second album so much, but it was almost all Mark and Dana and I was more than happy to follow them over to Slaughter and never listen to anything by Vinnie again. Oh, and Bobby Rock I think became the drummer for Nelson. I did really like the hell out of Nelson. One of the best live shows I’ve ever seen.
Washington is right though. Classic Rock stations in general leave a lot to be desired.
I’ve been coughing most of today (as well as my usual sneezing fit that happens when I come up here at night. Don’t know what’s up with that). Erin’s symptoms and mine don’t seem to totally match, but who knows. I’m hopeful that it’s just seasonal allergies. For the both of us, but for me it’s pretty likely. Even a fall cold seems possible. If it’s anything worse, I guess we’ll just deal with it. I’m in pretty horrible shape, I would likely take to this thing in a bad, bad way. But that’s on me. I don’t take care of myself. But had to cancel dinner with the family on Wednesday just to be safe, and that’s one of the only things I look forward to right now. So a little bummed. But an excuse to go cuddle up in bed isn’t anything I’ll complain too loudly about.
I mean… yeah. I’m gonna complain. That’s my thing.
