Or something like a whiteboard, so I can write down the next day’s activities on it without forever posting thinks lists to LJ. Perhaps that would help me to remember, say, doing the laundry (which I still haven’t started today). And exercise. And things like that. Or maybe it’d just hang unused, but it’d be an attempt, right? Right. I’m suffering from Chaz’s usual Difficulty With Delivery Men. Having missed yesterday’s delivery, I am now waiting at home obediently for a delivery which might be “a little later” than yesterday’s…

a good day
I unexpectedly got about 4500 words written today. Finished “Don’t Wreck Your Soul” and submitted it (a mere 3 weeks late, cringe), and got probably half of the next “No Dominion” Kickstarter short story reward written.

Did I mention you guys are awesome? Thank you all *so much*. The…
that’s customer service.
This afternoon I posted on Twitter saying I kept checking to see if my nephew’s book had shipped from Lulu.com, not that Lulu was late in shipping them (because they weren’t), but because I was antsy and impatient. A couple hours later I got a notification saying they’d shipped. I said yay! on Twitter. “Total coincidence,” I said, “but yay!” The luludotcom guy there said “Total coincidence my foot! I made some calls!” No idea if that’s actually true, since this afternoon would have been a reasonable window to expect…
