In case you were wondering, I am still revising The Mirador. My editor, who is merciful, gave me an extension. (A thing I never had to ask for in my career as a student, and am I having over-achiever guilt about it? Three guesses and the first two don't count.) I've caught several embarrassing continuity glitches, rewritten several bad segues, and cut several clunky paragraphs.

I'm also so bored I can't stand myself.

If you'd like to tell me something good, something interesting, something fun or funny or even peculiar, I would be very grateful.

Paddy's been a good boy lately, so he goes to God and he goes, "God, I been a good boy lately, how about you let me win the lottery?"

So God thinks it over like a good thoughtful God does, and he agrees, Paddy's been less troublesome lately, sure doesn't he deserve a bit of a reward? So he nods and off Paddy goes, planning what he's going to do with his winnings.

However, Lottery Day cmes and goes, and then Paddy shows up at God's joint again, pissed off as all get out. "Hey, God, you said I could win the lottery! I didn't win! What happened?"

You know God's god, becuase he didn't take the pool cue he'd just lined up a beautiful shot with and smack the fool right then and there. "Jaysus Feckin' Christ, Paddy, you got to at least give me a little hand, you know? Could you at least buy the feckin' ticket?"
