I'll be gone five-hundred miles when the day is done

A split second power outage at the office shorted out the router for my section of the building, cutting me off from internet, e-mail, and the server. Unable to get in and update the catalog, I spent the day organizing a recently donated collection of newspaper clippings instead. They covered the fall of the American railroad industry from the 1950s through the 1990s thanks to said industry's refusal to maintain their rails, meet the needs of their customers, or adapt to the changing transportation environment in any way. My city lost passenger rail service back in the 1970s and it's incredibly frustrating because, while I wouldn't kill for rail service to New York City, I would gladly seduce a railroad executive for it. Ended the day with Arlo Guthrie's "The City of New Orleans" in my head because that's my go-to railroad song.

I had yesterday off for MLK day. Spent it finishing my story for the Past Imperfect Future Unknown exchange. Now I just need to do a quick Agent Carter re-watch and get started on my piece for Agent Carter Valentines.

Last week I found a John Mulaney quote sentence starters and solicited writing prompts on tumblr. So far, I have received twelve prompts and filled three of them:

“Whats that? Over there! Don’t do that!” with Obi-Wan (and Anakin) on tumblr or AO3
"I think I'm becoming more like my mom" with Anakin on tumblr or AO3
"My life is a freaking nightmare" with Anakin (and Padme) on tumblr or AO3

 

If you see a quote you like, feel free to drop my a prompt along with the name of any character I've written in the last 3 years in the comments below. Or just hit me up on tumblr, which ever.
