For Fun Friday

IN THE NEWS: Man hit by lightning dies 48 years after his father died the same way. Read more HERE. (What are the odds?)

Well, the hubby is playing hooky from work this afternoon (he can do that since he's the boss) and we're heading to the beach!

I deserve the break too. I've been really working hard on my edits this week. Really hard. So hard I feel like my eyes are going crossed.

So if you haven't seen me around much on the blogosphere... um, that's why. :-)

Before I go back to my edits this morning, I'll leave you with a funny I saw in our local paper this week:

Dilbert.com

Have a great weekend!

Have fun and the beach and enjoy the time away from edits. The sun is a great way to recharge your writing batteries.
Great comic! Harsh, ha ha.

See what happens when I get behind on blog reading/commenting. I'm reading old news.

Instead of saying I hope you HAVE a fun day at the beach, I will instead say that I hope you HAD a fun day at the beach!
