Separation

Posted by Taylor Valentine in STORY-002 on
Last night, my dad and I were supposed to watch a movie together. However, as we sat down and purchased it, we realized that the movie had to download before we could watch it. I told my dad that we would do it another time; I had a project I needed to work on and had to be at work in the morning. He was visible upset, but I couldn't figure out why. Couldn't it wait? 

He came up to my room about an hour later and explained it to me. 
"Taylor, the last few months, I've felt like I haven't seen you at all.  You're leaving for real in a few months and I don't want that last bit of time I have with you to fly by."

He left, not giving me a chance to respond.  Last night, I cried as I fell asleep.

Feathers and Felines: One Man's Quest to Make His Grandmother's Cat A Star!

For a portion of my capstone I need to create a gang, names and personalities included. I had been making no progress on this front for the three days I had been regularly thinking about it until I sat down to do my Anatomy and Physiology homework. (For those who may have occasion to read this today, have no fear there is no new assignment. You may rest easy.) I was reading when I encountered the term osteoclasts. Osteoclasts, as defined by The Essentials of Anatomy and Physiology- Ninth Edition by Elaine N. Marieb, are large cells that resorb and break down bone matrix.
They bone breakers. (Granted this is an incredibly simplistic description of their role, but I am going to ignore that on the grounds of artistry.) I had found the nickname for my enforcers! Hoorah hoorah! What luck. While I completed my science I happened across this gem of a title, a win for everyone I think.
