So, apparently fixing bugs in programs is a lot like being a detective. Or an FBI agent. Funny conversation. Funny funny funny…..

Not that you care. Unless you like programming.

Maybe I should write a story. I think I might just do that. What should it be about?

I’m not so sure. It should be interesting. I have a lot of thoughts in my head. But they’re kind of lame… I mean, they’re not. By they are. Oh, I know!! How about an interpreter that through her interpreting discovers some sort of murder or something?!! Oh wait… that’s already happened in The Interpreter. Gosh! But I could take a twist on that… And a nurse. There should be a nurse. Or an accountant. You see, I would like to be a nurse. Or an interpreter for the deaf/deaf-blind. And Marianne might grow up to be an accountant. And John a software person. My mom is a paralegal. Kaitlyn will be a teacher. Blake, a doctor, I think? Of course, journalism seems kind of like a cool career… Or a detective. Who should the main character be? Or should I have more than one main character? I should have one main character is almost like a second-person. But not. She will be the connection between all of the other characters. There should be a mafia! Or not… that’s kind of over used.

What are some issues that affect me? Well, pre-marital sex. People who do that are really stupid. And they annoy me. Modesty. Education. I like judo. And music. And languages.

I want it to be a mystery. I want a Nancy Drew. But not quite a Nancy Drew. And of course there has to be a hunk of savage manliness. There always must be. A kid get kidnapped. One character knows the single mother of 4 from whom he was kidnapped. One character knows the people that kidnapped the poor kid. Another character teaches the kid? One character’s children play with the kidnapped child. He is deaf, and so can’t communicate well. Not many people in this part of the country know ASL. He learned some before he was kidnapped… but now, where he is, no one knows it. And they’re all kind of ignorant people, so they don’t realize that this kid is a genius, they just think that he’s slow. Or maybe he should be a she. I’m not so sure.

Anyhow, why did these people kidnap the kid? I’m thinking this kid is actually a teenager, now. Or an adult. Yes, an adult that is being held captive? Making that mother of 4 single. So that makes the person a man? I guess so… unless it’s a now-single father of 4…. And the mom is the one being held captive. I think the father will be the one held captive. Yes, the father. And he’s deaf. And really smart.

But why was he kidnapped? (Adultnapped?) Does he know something he shouldn’t? Or is it his genes? When he was little, was he injected with experimental stem cells that caused his deafness? No, no, no… that would put a negative light on the stem cells. Unless that stem cell thing was just a theory. And what actually happened was that the stem cells saved his life, leaving him with just a hearing problem. Yes, indeed. I like that. You see, he’s an orphan. And the stem cells that were used leave a trace behind themselves in someone’s genes. Or something like that. Or maybe he isn’t an orphan. No, jk, he is an orphan. But the people that gave him the stem cells know who he is. And they have kept an eye on him his whole life to see how their experiment turned out. They are like his guardian angels. They are not just concerned about this specimen. They have grown to love him over time. Stem Cell Angels. Just as the people who gave the deaf man his stem cells are about to reveal their work, another company steals their work. And they need to contact the deaf man so they can show him as proof of successful work. The only problem is that he’s been napped and can’t be found anywhere. The other company wants all of the credit. Why? For riches? I suppose so… The head of the company… well, his name could be Laban…. Well, that’ll be it for now.
