Soggy Updates

Since the rain has closed HACC for the third day in a row I finally have some time to update my blog.  The ONLY good thing to come out of the flooding (I'm currently drying out about 40 books that got saturated when our basement flooded but at least it wasn't as bad as some people have).

I have been busy, busy with the start of school.  I'm taking five classes this semester and I'm in various stages of three different research projects (why did I think this was a good idea?).  Truly though, I'm enjoying all of my classes and learning a lot.

The other big thing that has been eatting all of my time is Faire.  As I mentioned in an earlier blog, I have had the joy of exploring a new character this year- Barbara (Babs) Norris the Fishmonger.  As I suspected, she is a little crazy.  She likes to say she can catch anything- including husbands (why stop at fish?).  Currently she is under the employ of no fewer than 10 people, all looking for husbands, including the greatly feared Duchess of Sussex (who has had seven husbands already).  She is also trying to catch a giant squid which she intends to turn into a scarf and deeply believes that this will be the latest fashion craze.  Like I said, she's a little nuts :)

My alter-ego, Babs Norris.
Despite being busy I'm having a wonderful time.  I'm even looking forward to join my writing friends in just a month and half for NaNoWriMo.  Though how I will fit that in I have no idea!

With greetings from Mount Hope England,
