It’s Saturday. Early in the morning, by my estimate. Of course, early for me involves anytime before 1pm. Right now I’m gathering gear to go get the crap beat out of me in order to build my endurance and fighting technique. It may not sound like much fun, but once you get into that first adrenaline rush, it’s actually quite comfy.
If the thought of me getting black-and-blued doesn’t provide enough entertainment for the day, try this link on for size:

I don’t know who took the time to discover and categorize all this stuff, but you’ve got to admire them for having so much free time.
In other news, I’ve actually finished my latest story’s first draft. It clocked in at 100,501 words, and is my attempt to transplant a more common fantasy element into a modern-day science fiction story. I’m going to let it cool off for a week or so while I turn my revisionist eye to an earlier manuscript, and then I’ll come back and see how much work this one is really going to need. My guess? It won’t be pretty, although I do find revising to be somewhat fun after a point. But hey, I’m someone who apparently enjoys early morning beatings, so don’t take my definition of fun into account.
I see that smile.
Josh,
I saw your cell phone karma video suggestion on another blog. Ha!
Thanks for stopping by. I know we have all wished that exact fate on someone, somewhere. Usually an elevator or restaurant, but unfortunately those locales seem short of squirrel populations.
