God d(ead)ammit

I spoke with somebody about my dream idea that I awoke to and she told me it was basically the plot outline to the computer game Diablo III.

Well okay, not entirely, but it was very similar. Still she said it was different enough.

Of course now I’m going to have to do some research on Nephalem and see if my version still has enough of my own spin in comparison to theirs.

I also didn’t get in any real writing today as I had to meet with my daughter’s teachers at her school but I at least got to plot out my dream idea. So I got some words in even if it was futile it was still practice/productivity.

 

-More to come

Ride in on 9th

No writing so far today. I just reread the 3,900 word piece i wrote yesterday and boy that this is one long drawn on emotional mess. Kind of scary seeing it again after spending a good part of yesterday dumping it out of my heart.

Question: can raw emotions truly be edited?

Missing…

Howdy Y’all

I’ve been doing a bit of personal reflecting on the state of my marriage since my 11 year anniversary is coming up soon. I’ve been trying to craft a letter to my wife that is a celebration, admission, desire, and opinion piece that covers where I want to go with her.

I’m still fiddling around with my PK story and got 500 or so words down yesterday but it’s not a primary focus right now.

I got nothing else to say at the moment.

-Love

Today is different

It’s raining this morning. I think I want to look at the wet world instead of write today on my way into work. 

I enjoy winter and have always idealized the sitting next to a window and watching the weather on days like this. Too bad I burned off most of my sick time two weeks ago otherwise today would be a great excuse for a mental vacation day.

It just came to me…I have a plan for America

Okay try this out…

Lets change out election process so that each and every person within a congressional district must fill out a questionnaire filled with various topics that are deemed poignant to the area and to the region. Lets say 33% are Federal questions, 33% are State questions, and 33% are local questions. These questions are created by the aforementioned parties. This then sheet of 100 questions is a requirement that all able bodied people must fill out otherwise they run the risk of losing their citizenship or public services etc…

Now after these are turned in and a computer model* looks at them and the program selects five unique people out of those who selected the box “[yes/no] I would consider a position as a member of congress if one would be offered to me.” These people represent the five strongest models of differing viewpoints given as deemed by those who filled out the questionnaire.

*(The computer model is open source)

Two months later an election is held in which “the people” vote on one of those five candidates who they want to represent them in their government.

There is no guarantee of being reelected and all prior representatives are then tossed back into the pool to be pulled from for the next election following should they click the appropriate [yes/no] box.

This Trump shit has got to go.
