Editing a Novel and Financial Aid

I have been working on editing my novel to get it ready to go to a publisher. It is tedious work and I am ready to start writing a NEW novel, rather than concentrating on the old one.

Ah, well.

In other news:

At work, it is my job to help students (at a local culinary school) find the money to go to school through government grants, student loans, private loans, etc. If a student is under 24, they have to have their parent's information available to get the money from the government.

On the phone with a prospective new student:

Student: I'm not eleibigle for grants?
Me: No. Your parents made too much money.
S: But, I can get student loans?
Me: Yes, but they won't cover all your tuition.
S: So what do I need?
Me: You need your parents to sign for a parent's loan. Unless they have bad credit, then you may be eligible for additional student loan money.
S: I think my parents have great credit.
Me: Well, you will have to use them to get a parent's loan.
S: But, they don't want to take out a loan for me.
Me: You will have to see about getting a private loan, then. I have a couple of suggestions.
S: Can I use my sister instead of my parents? She has terrible credit?

If only that were possible...

What's a Girl to do?

OK. I confess. I joined a dating site with the hope of finally (a long last) meeting the love of my life. I have to admit. The bastards won. I was in contact with a man who seemed to be very interested and exchanged several emails with me...he was educated, an art dealer, seemed classy from his emails. Then, he asked me to send him money. LOTS of money. We had not even reached the stage of talking on the phone when he asked me for money. I don't mean to get on a rant here and most people who read my blog know that I do not rant very often, but... I am thoroughly cheesed off by this character for a number of reasons. First, how could someone actually attempt to take advantage of someone like this? Worse, how could he assume that I was stupid enough to fall for his crap? What does this say about our world that a person (presumably a man) could be so greedy they would try to scam someone. Obviously, if I had sent him the money he asked for, he would do one of two things... hang on to ...

How to Effectively Argue

This is the funniest thing I have read recently and it is extremely valuable information, as in, I wish I had known about this when I was a teenager. Or even better, I wish I had known this when my kids were teenagers. How to argue effectively By Dave Barry And not by Stuart J. Williams, Attorney at Law I argue very well. Ask any of my remaining friends. I can win an argument on any topic, against any opponent. People know this and steer clear of me at parties. Often, as a sign of their great respect, they don't even invite me. You too can win arguments. Simply follow these rules: Drink liquor. Suppose you are at a party and some hotshot intellectual is expounding on the economy of Peru, a subject you know nothing about. If you're drinking some health-fanatic drink like grapefruit juice, you'll hang back, afraid to display your ignorance, while the hotshot enthralls your date. But if you drink several large martinis, you'll discover you have STRONG VIEWS about the Peruv...
