I know, I know…Right now you must be mad at me for posting an author's note!

I'm sorry, I'm kinda tired, I'm posting this at about 2:00 am here!  If I can actually get on the computer today before 12:00 midnight, it shall be up before the ringing of the midnight chime!

And b/c FF.net doesn't let authors notes go lightly…here's a little blurb I thought up while writing TP My Style, hopefully it will be posted separately later!

FETCH!

            Amelia was wrestling her four children to bed, the circles beneath her eyes showed how much sleep she had gotten in the last forty-eight hours.  None.

            Jim walked in and slung his jacket on one of the chairs, "Hey Mrs. A!"

            She glared, "Honestly Jim, how many times do I have to tell you that I detest that name?!"

            Jim grinned, "At least once more Mrs. A, as always!"

            Amelia scowled, "I wouldn't mind…if Delbert would just help out once in a while!"

            The boy shook his bangs out of his eyes, "You know…Delbert does have thins thing where you can make him do anything you want…even the laundry."

            The Captain's ears perked and she dropped one of the children, "I'm listening."

            Jim whispered into the Captain's ears.

            Amelia waited for her husband who was clomping down the stairs to the astronomy tower, in her right hand she held a piece of dried venison, that was also the hand behind her back.  Delbert grinned, he was full and rested, not to mention happy.

            "Oh dear?"  Amelia held up the venison and Delbert started drooling, she feinted a couple of times before throwing the meat into the laundry closet while yelling, "FETCH!"

            Delbert scrambled off into the closet, not noticing that the door locked behind him until he had eaten the meat.  Amelia giggled outside, and she spoke through the crack in the door.

            "Have fun!"

            Delbert growled and started to sort through the piles of soiled diapers while Amelia retired to some well earned sleep!
