Hey I made a change to the novel I'm writing. Or should I say, the BESTSELLING novel I'm writing. Am I supposed to put a question mark there? It wasn't really a question, it was more rhetorical. Oh well, I'll leave it and move on tot he update.
The main guy who gets recruited by the CIA is a wizard.
How will it affect the plot and overall theme of the novel? Well I guess you will just have to read it for yourself after I write it. I've already written like the first 5 chapters in my head, but I guess now that I changed the novel with the wizard idea, I'll have to rewrite it in my head.
A journey through the mind of an awesome slacker.

My Novel Idea
I came up with a great idea for a novel, but there is an I Love Lucy marathon on TV, so I will just go over the basic outline.
It starts with this guy who is just like a normal guy, and then this thing happens, and he gets recruited by the CIA to be a spy.
Hold on, the commercial for Lucy is over. Oh man, Lucy just got stuck in a meat locker, and Ethel doesn't have the key to open it. Ok, I'll be right back with the novel idea.
Ok I'm back. So anyway, what was I saying? Oh yeah, so this normal guy gets recruited by the FBI to be a cop or a detective and he has to catch this super serial killer terrorist guy. But then, he needs help from this hot lady who is supposed to train him on all the FBI stuff...oh man, Ricky and Fred can't get Lucy out of that meat locker, that's not good. That crazy Lucy!
Damn, I got distracted again, sorry. So anyway, this lady is training the guy to be a cop or a detective or something, and then the lady gets kidnapped, only we don't see the guy kidnap her, not the good guy, the other guy. Then, the first guy has to ask the guy who rectuited him to go and get the lady so he can rescue her, not the boss guy, the first guy who the bos guy trained.
hold on a second, there's a commercial for the new batman movie, I'll be right back.
So I made a change to the novel: Forget about the guy getting recruited to be a spy, I think I'm going to change it so the guy is a super hero, but he still has to get trained by the lady so he can beat the serial killer terrorist. Only there's a twist, because the lady is really the killer, only she makes it look like the boss, the first guy, not the hero, but the other guy, is the killer, only she is the killer, not him.
I'm going to wrap this up, there's a Who's The Boss episode coming up, and it looke pretty funny. Hey, maybe TOny Danza can play the recruiter guy in the movie adaptation of my novel I'm writing! That would be awesome!
So, to wrap things up, the lady is the murderer and the jewel thief, or wait, was it the boss? I think it ws the lady, and she made it look like it was the boss, and it really does look like it was the boss, only the guy who got recruited figures it out right at the end and acaptures the lady and saves the country from a nuclear bomb and a serial killer maniac.
There was more stuff like plot and emotion and dialogue I was going to mention, but Who's the Boss is on TV and I haven't seen this episode in a few months.
I'll post updates on the novel as they come!

How to Substitute Teach
7:45am Wake up late. There's no reason to show up early or on time for a job when you aren't even the real teacher. Plus, by arriving late, you make the day go quicker, as there is less time left in your day.
8:16am Arrive late to school, argue with yourelf about getting out of your car, or driving back home. Cry out of anger/frustration/self loathing/sorrow.
8:20am check in with snarky, pompous, self-righteous school office staff. Pretend to be nice to them in order to procure more work for yourself in the future. Ignore the sick feeling in your stomach.
8:22am Pretend that you didn't know that the classroom door was locked and the students were knocking to get into the classroom. If you're lucky, they wont send a custodian to open the door for a good 15-20 minutes.
8:30am Take roll, and intentionally mispronounce the names of students. This way they will be too busy making fun of each other to make fun of you for being a substitute teacher/being exhausted/throwing up in your mouth a little/looking like you were crying in your car before school.
8:45am Pass out worksheets or assign vocabulary to keep the asshole kids busy while you wake up. Stare off into space as you wonder if you're too old to learn how to work with computers.
8:49am Stare at your watch and wonder how the hell time is going so slow.
9:14am Scour the internet looking for a new job. Try to decide between getting a forklift certification or learning how to weld.
11:43am Release students to lunch early so you can cry, pray, and question your life decisions leading up to this point.
12:45pm As students come back from lunch, try to repress your rage and self loathing enough to take roll again.
12:47pm Stare blankly at the wall, wondering how your life got to this point.
1:00pm Strongly consider joining the military.
1:22pm Get in text message argument with significant other.
1:45-3:15 Take it easy and relax for the rest of the day.
