An Extra $1000...

Again, I have been lax about blogging.  I actually have been writing but just not here.  I'm still working on the book idea which is lots of fun and Paul convinced me to write a few short stories to submit on their own so I am doing that as well.  I think one of my big problems is that I rearranged the furniture and now I don't have anywhere comfortable to sit and blog like I used to.  Well, I'm working on it.
So, the extra $1000?  That's today's brilliant idea.  If we can manage to find/earn/win/manufacture an extra $1000 by next month we will spend it not on practical things but on a road trip to visit Southern California again.  I'm sure we could throw caution to the wind and just spend money now but since every penny is pretty much ear-marked for use down the line we decided that we will only go on a road trip if we can manifest the extra $1000.  Now we're exploring ways to suddenly come up with money.  It's an interesting challenge. 
In reality I should just go get a job for the rest of my time in Olympia but that would make the trip a bit tricky and not as much fun as using the old imagination.  Even if I did get a job I would still want to figure out a way to make $1000 over and above salary, just for the heck of it.  Hell, it's only $250/week over 4 weeks... or $100/day for 10 days... or $50/day for 20 days... you get the idea.
Currently taking suggestions of all shapes and sizes (legal, please).
I'll update as warranted!

    seriously though.... see if you can sell some of your stories. Your writing is funny. Someone will pay for it.
