 | 11:55 pm - Intermittent Pellets and Dumb Things Yeah, so the other day I thought I had done something really dumb, but it turned out I hadn't. Except, I had, because all indications pointed to it being a dumb thing. Not a Dumb Thing, disaster-like, eg putting your Winnebago on cruise control and going to the back to getyourself a sandwich because, hey, it's controlled. Just a minor headachey "Why do I do this to myself?" kind of dumb thing. It turned out OK, though. Which in fact is not too good, because Intermittent Rewards is the best way to train a dumb person or animal to do something. Eg: you show a mouse that when it pushes down a lever, it gets a food pellet. If it gets a food pellet every time, as soon as the pellet is withheld the mouse will quickly cease to perform. If you only reward it every 2-6 times, it will keep performing for long, loooong time, hoping for the pellet. So, in this case, I agreed to do something that's supposed to be nice but almost never turns out nice. And it turned out nice. Setting me up to agree to said thing again, even though I know the odds are I will not get my pellet.
That... didn't clear up anything at all, did it?
Anyway. It wasn't a big deal, trust me. Just a minorly dumb thing. Current Mood: sleepy

The butler husband didn't do it. Police suspect...
*sigh*
I'm going to end up writing this, aren't I? Current Mood: silly

 | 07:25 pm - Other Fish Platitudes. I see pity in every eye, feel the weakness in every touch like it's contagious, a pandemic of heartbreak threatening to rush past my borders and infect their world. They wish the best with oblivious lips, lying without intention or fault. Their words are cacaphonous; I hear only ruin.

 | 02:50 pm - New challenge: Black Friday/Cyber Monday The Thanksgiving/thankful/thanks challenge is now closed...thanks to havers, redwingx, lilbutterflybee, robertgoren, and det_aeames for the drabbles. Also, welcome to lilbutterflybee!
An explanation for the non-US members here: The Friday after Thanksgiving is a crazy day of holiday shopping in the States, with some people lining up at 3:00 am to get great deals. A few years ago many online retailers joined in with deals on the following Monday. So this week's challenge is Black Friday/Cyber Monday. What kind of deals will our heroes be looking for? Or perhaps they're working store security? Drabbles are due next Saturday!

She uncurled her fist, letting her fingers splay across her lap. For a moment, she could almost feel Olivia’s lips, ghostly soft as they kissed each one.
