My posts were just so sporadic when I started this blog that I decided to let people know on which days they will see them. Since we can now schedule posts to appear in the near future, I can just go into my story archives and set everything up weeks in advance. Then I just sit back and answer comments. <BR/><BR/>BUT I DEFINITELY WILL NOT POST MORE THAN THREE TIMES A WEEK. I PROMISE MYSELF TO GET MY CURRENT PROJECT FINISHED AND THE OTHER FOUR STORY IDEAS SITTING ON THE BACKBURNER STARTED!<BR/><BR/>maybe . . .Michelle H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10117937124348728578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169129998329537448.post-8924515253631428582008-05-30T10:06:00.000-04:002008-05-30T10:06:00.000-04:00Sandra and Adaora,Ah, me.

And sometimes I will just darn-tooting make up a story from scratch. This isn't one of those times.<BR/><BR/>We DID have an electric fence. And the lure of just touching it was the same as knowing you shouldn't eat the three-bean jalepano salad because you know you will get heartburn. But for some reason, your mind shuts down and you just go for it.<BR/><BR/>Understand that the fence was for livestock, so there has to be enough power in the line to shoo the big cows away from going over it. Imagine five people scuffing feet over a thick rug and then all of them touch you at once, in the same spot. I . . . humbly . . . admit it's not as shocking as sending you down to knees. But it would send you going AHHH . . . and having a bit of a funny walk as you try to shake off the shock.<BR/><BR/>@Adaora - I'm getting spam too.
