"Project Mimosa" Payday

mimosacheque.jpg

This is me, earlier this morning, clutching my first cheque for "Project Mimosa". As before, I can't really tell you what Project Mimosa is, other than that it has nothing to do with mimosas (as far as I know, anyway). Does involve leading Californian industry--which probably tells you too much. Yeah, I'm gonna be a test subject for new plastic surgery techniques. Dang, you weaselled it out of me.

All here at Chez Bedford are pretty chuffed. Next plan is to take the family out for dinner somewhere nice. Then I'm giving the great bulk of it to Michelle, to put towards next year's LA trip, and whatnot.

And later today, back to the grind on UMBRA.

Ah no, a screwdriver is vodka and orange, not champagne and orange. I must have another drink immediately to clear my mind...

My dictionary tells me that a Mimosa is also a drink containing champagne and orange juice (a screwdriver by another name?) Sounds like just the thing for your family dinner! Congratulations, may many more cheques follow.

So, lemme get this straight... it's called Project Mimosa because it's got nothing to do with mimosas... That reminds me of the well-known impossible game, Don't Think About Pink Rhinoceroses, beloved of excessive beer-drinkers everywhere.

And also... TREMENDOUSLY excited to see the "coming soon" under the spiffy-looking cover art for Eclipse. I'll be placing my order forthwith.

Oooooh! Lotsa zeroes, I hope! *experiencing sympathetic chuffed-ness*

Gosh!

Y'know, if I were a dog, my tail would be wagging so hard I'd take off backwards *pauses to consider image ... falls over laughing in delight*

Way to go, ol'flute!
