breathing easier

First of all, I think it's a horrible shame that it's been only recently that chocolate has been found to have beneficial health effects. My maternal grandparents were health nuts (to the point that my grandmother had anorexic tendencies, so we're talking that kind of nut) and subsisted on stuff that was considered very healthy. Yogurt covered raisins were considered healthy. The only chocolate came from small bits inside granola bars. I suspect my childhood would have had a few brighter spots if they knew what a bit o' the dark stuff could do for one. I recently found some dark chocolate covered raisins. Now that's health food.

I spent some time working on the short story in question from yesterday whilst I waited in the doctor's office. I think I've made some progress into what to do to help the story. It's a good feeling, though it involves a great deal of rewriting. But that's not bad. I'm not afraid of rewrites. What I'm afraid of is mediocrity.
