Day 16...ant carrying watermelon
I've been very busy making up new business cards for myself since I gave all of my old (and boring) ones away. I wanted my new cards to convey a bit of my personality. So I could go with a dinner-menu sized business card, which would be okay with me, except I'd have to fold it up to fit in my purse, and get creases all over it. Or I coud stick with a regular sized business card and do something punchy. I decided to add an icon. Of an ant with little stick legs. And he's carrying a wedge of pink and green watermelon ten times his size. Yep. That has 'me' written all over it.
In writing news....nothing exciting to report. It is raining here in Toronto, so of course it is raining in my story today, which takes place in Toronto. I also got accosted by a guy in front of the Four Seasons hotel who, (this is absolutely true) asked me if I could spare $50,000. I asked him if he had change for a million, but he was too busy accosting another pedestrian. You know it. And I know it. Let's not pretend. I put the whole thing directly into my story, even the part about the guy in the Bentley who raced through the traffic light to catch the yellow, and splashed about 20 people including me and the accoster guy. But I didn't feel too bad for the accoster guy. He can get his clothing looking good as new at the cleaners. You can do quite a bit with $50,000 and a dry cleaner these days. At least that's how it works in my story.
Things I learned today:
-decaf espresso is an oxymoron
-riboflavin deficiency is not pleasant
-food eaten while standing up over the sink ***contains*** calories :(
