EtA: heh, and double-heh
Mar. 30th, 2012 01:01 pmI was going back to the con, but I thought I'd stop off halfway down, go back to the business centre, see if the printer had blown its nose and settled back to work.
For a minute there, it had. It said ooh, I know you! I've got something for you! (I love the internet!) and started printing. A page, a blessed page.
Then it ran out of paper.
Back to the front desk went I, and the nice lady said, "oh dear," and then there was a bit of a battle what with one thing and another but eventually we got the right machine reloaded and resumed, and now I have my chunk of book to read.
And now I totally want to rewrite it, but. That's the name of the game, the rules of the road, what we leave behind is dust beneath our wheels; and besides, I have a con to go to.
*mingles*
