Alrighty, it’s pretty clear that I have some explaining to do. Allow me to address some FAQ

Q: Why has the blog been down? There haven’t been any posts lately.
A: Yes, I know, I’m so sorry. I couldn’t figure out how to post anymore. It was working and then the next time I tried, niente. Admittedly I could have figured it out earlier had I put more effort and time into trying, but the layout was in Italian and I have so little time on the internet that I usually attack it and things like the blog fall into a giant, scary pit of “Things I should be doing, and I’m sure that I will do one day.” However, I have delved into that pit and managed to fish out the blog. Sorry again, and thanks for the welcome back :P


Q: Why are there no posts for November, you horrible, horrible promise -breaking witch of person?
A: Well… you see, the thing about November is that it’s really a demanding month. Not only did the school whisk us away to Umbria for 5 days, but the director took away my computer for a week. Oh and I was trying to write a novel. All these things make for no time to write blog posts. I’m not even sorry about this one, I felt guilty about the first question but I can deal with this one.

Q: Oh, well then, did you write your novel?
A: This certainly is embarrassing, but no, no I did not. I strongly suspect that it is due to the school trip and lack-of-computer, but no, I did not finish my novel. I still have a plot format in my head and I believe I am tossing my draft into aforementioned pit. It is currently at 19,336 words.

Q: When are you coming back to America?
A: :x. I’m afraid I can’t say much on that subject. There’s a chance of around 70% that I’ll be back at the end of May, 2011.

Phew, feels good to get all that off my chest. Carefree as a bee, that’s me. If I weren’t crazily allergic to bees I’d take that as my motto. No. That’s not the reason I’m not adopting it as my motto.
Motto sounds like “matto “
Which means crazy
Bee is “ape”
hee hee, word confusion.

Ciao!
Tally

PS. I totally made up the date on top, I’m not sure what time this was intended for!
