NaMiFiWriMoFo: ideas?

Well, I didn't write anything on the weekend, because I was too busy. I suspected that might happen. In any case, I'm two posts behind so far, and I intend to make them up. Any suggested topics, first lines or characters?

NaMiFiWriMoFo #3

( as prompted by night_watch... )

NaMiFiWriMoFo #4

( more steampunk )

NaMiFiWriMoFo #5

It feels like the Wachowskis have left this particular field a little barren for a while, but...

( Oh, what the hell... )

erk.

Yanno, usually if I said I was allergic to my bed, I'd be making a statement about being too busy to sleep.

In other news, apparently my emergency inhaler has expired since I last used it.

Hopefully, benedryl will do the trick. I gotta get that inhaler replaced...
