Tad Williams' Message Board

Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies -- 'God damn it, you've got to be kind.'
-    Kurt Vonnegut, 1922-2007

Welcome to the message board for tadwilliams.com. All comments are welcome, whether kudos or brickbats. However, please bear in mind that Tad would like this to be a friendly, civil message board, at least in the relations between users. We reserve the right to remove postings, or even ban postings, from anyone who crosses the boundary of reasonable taste. Basically, you can argue vigorously with someone, but watch your language, okay? We have a lot of young readers as well as grown-ups, so please show them some respect.

But the main requirement here is: have fun.

Re: QM - Bar de Doom

Back from school once again.
Journal has been handed in, project-thingy is becoming clearer, I'm beginning to have ideas about what I could do/would want to do.

My brain is being weird. For a moment I thought you were feeling like you were soup - even though I know perfectly well what this sentence means!

I wonder what type of soup Gen feels like? Minestrone? Tomato Bisque? Vichyssoise?

Or maybe a nice clam chowder?

I still have an hour and a half to work and then I have to visit the supermarket before I can have dinner.

Re: QM - Bar de Doom

He's had some problems with his bladder/urethra earlier this year already. And this morning, he was puking and miaowing quite loudly, but we just thought he'd chewed some plant again. When we came home, he was still/again screaming, and moving very slowly and carefully, so Mama took him to the vet. Turns out his urethra is blocked again. He's going to get an operation, but he might not survive it, or his bladder might be so badly damaged that the vet won't let him wake up again.

Re: QM - Bar de Doom

Thanks.
The vet's going to call later, but she'll have to wait for Mama to get back. I don't want to answer the phone.
