I'm stealing my dashnog word from when I was over at Deb's earlier and she was on the blog but didn't post. Here it is: Limon [lime on]-its a dashnog fruit hybrid of lemon and lime and the juice makes a drink that tastes like 7up without the carbonation.<br />And Arlene you rock the wowwie wow wows. I so haven't heard that enough from you lately.<br />Oh yeah and Dashner Hope your back to working on that word count of yours.

It's from the ancient language of Scriptus, spoken by Typor. It's a generally accepted mild expletive, used in moments of delicate frustration.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13342192635635750418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8648274871264107501.post-23728363384291759402009-04-27T21:20:00.000-06:002009-04-27T21:20:00.000-06:00James, there were definitely some good moments, so...James, there were definitely some good moments, some great moments, sprinkled with some moments of hilarity, all adding up to a great weekend.

The best part of the night was how you and Scott announced the awards--my wife couldn't stop talking about how you guys were just naturally funny. She's trying to figure out how to make that kind of humor work in story telling.<br /><br />Dude, I'm looking forward to relaxing with the 13th Reality.

And I really don't need another distraction from my regular household chores--I don't ever want to put the book down, It's that good. Thank you for writing it! What did you say in your acceptance speech? I bet it wasn't that bad. Whitney's are the only thing I didn't do. Oh and boot camp.

It wasn't until today that I FINALLY had the validation of being right- you did win. I thought you would. I wish I could have been there to see the speech. <br />You already know that your wife is awesome enough to forgive you, but it wouldn't hurt to clean the house and take her out to dinner for good measure. You can't be too careful.<br />Next year I'll be at the conference.
