Jurassic Tweets
I’m still working on catching up after the weekend, including an unexpected-but-minor round of edits to the Fable book, incoming guest blog posts to review and edit, and getting back to Revisionary. Plus brainstorming a short story for an anthology project.
So in the meantime, I present you with a short and silly Twitter adventure from last week, also known as How Jim Amuses Himself While Waiting For His Flight:
Flight has been delayed. Heard someone say something about smuggled eggs from some sort of park???

They hauled some dude away. He was shouting he had to make his connecting flight to Isla Nublar. No idea where that is. #badatgeography

Whoa. Those are some intense-looking janitors. Hope they clean up the eggshell mess in the men’s room. — Jim C. Hines (@jimchines) February 12, 2015
Uh oh. Looks like someone’s pet lizard escaped. Just skittered through the boarding gate. — Jim C. Hines (@jimchines) February 12, 2015
There goes another. Wonder what species they are. They’re running upright. A little like those water-walking lizards. — Jim C. Hines (@jimchines) February 12, 2015
And here we go. Sitting next to a guy who says he’s a paleontologist. He seems really nervous, though. Probably a fear of flying. Poor guy. — Jim C. Hines (@jimchines) February 12, 2015
Oh, great. Just a few minutes in the air, and the captain says we’re having “technical problems.” — Jim C. Hines (@jimchines) February 12, 2015
HOLY CRAP!!!!!

Baby lizards everywhere. Paleontologist dude is screaming “They’re hunting in packs! Tiny little packs!”

Guy with an eye patch just jumped out of his seat. “I am sick of these mother——- velociraptors on this mother——- plane!” #badass

This is the last time I book a Valentine’s Day getaway to THAT park!

And in the meantime, my flight has been delayed for real. Hm…
