Well, the Georgia Writers Workshop, aka "The Wrekyl in Jekyl" begins tomorrow and folks are busily preparing to dash off to the cozy resort of Jekyl Island, GA. Acidman, Velocigod, Catfish, the Adorable Zonker, and many, many more will be there.
I, however, will not. *sigh*
Yes, the constraints of work and the gods of responsibility wielded their mighty powers and conspired against me this weekend, so I will instead be trudging off to work Friday, Saturday, and Sunday to eek a meager living and support my little family.
All in all, I'd rather be walking the beach, feeling the sea and sand swirling and sucking between my chubby and pearl-red nailed toes. I'd much rather be shopping the little shops in the company of Catfish, stopping for a moment for a coffee or a diet coke where we could watch the people busily being tourists.
And at night? V-man's infamous "Punch" and Catfish's "home-made wine" and spirited conversation and hyjinks would certainly fit the bill. I'm sure Acidman will end up with bright red toenails again (I'd be disappointed if he didn't), and guitars will be pulled from their cases and coaxed into accompaniment for the laughter and boisterous story telling.
I hope all of you Georgia Bloggers have a great time. Don't forget your Token Hoosier. I sure wish I could have worked the schedule and been there. Raise a glass (or mason jar) for me, and you all kiss Catfish for me. Well, everyone of the female persuasion, anyway. Especially the pretty ones.
Have fun. Wish I were there.
Begin operational planning for Texas now Mama. It wouldn't be the same without you.
