Our World

I have recently posted chapter 7 on The Hex Files. Until tomorrow I'll only have it up there as it's really late and I'm very sleepy, but it is there. When I sent the new chapter to them they had a little problem with my capitalising "Our World" in my story and it made me think about just why I did that. This is what I wrote: I'm doing that in a sort of a reference to Gone With the Wind. There is a part where Rhett speaks about the purpose of war as opposed to the true purpose and he says something like "Cause with a capital "C"" in irony.

Then she came and we went to buy me some new trainers for spring as my old ones walked around Munich, then Scotland last year and a lot during the fall too. Of course, now they look really worn and since I dress really smart most of the time, even my casual clothes, I couldn't let them ruin my ensamble. The next day we bought new jeans. I didn't have any wearable black ones and also bought a pair of dark blues as they were on sale. 20% off and they fit me like a glove! My ass looks nice too. :D I also saw a doctor last week in my home town. Nothing big, but I've had some problems all my life and sometimes I just need to have them checked. After that I ended up
