Darn my muses!  On a day when I have to work later on, they're driving me to write more!  Don't get me wrong, it's a good thing.  It is more than a little annoying, however.  Not only are they driving me to work some more on my mainstream novels (which isn't really a chore, but very time-consuming) but they've also planted this little seed for a new erotica story.  I've tentatively titled it *The Stone Table* and after starting it at 6 a.m. I'm already about 5,000 words into it. 

I need a drink. 

That, too, is a pity because I have to tend bar tonight.  Therefore, no drinks for Isabelle.  instead, i get to watch OTHER people drink.  Damn them anyway.
