mandarin painting and other good stuff :)

August 9, 2004

Got my act together this morning and sent Ursula some more money toward the Mandarin painting (if any of you were trying *desperately* to figure out how you could spend some money on me, you could send Ursula some money toward the painting; that’d be splendid :)), and it’s a good thing I managed to do /that/, at least, ’cause I utterly failed to get up and write this morning. But I did get about three and a half chapters rewritten this weekend, and cut a chapter entirely, so now my timeline in the book is somewhat different (actually, now it’s like, more different, because it’d been different already), but I think the rewrite is going reasonably well. I’ll finish the ch. 15 rewrite tonight. And I’ll try to be a good human and get up tomorrow morning to rewrite 16.

Let’s see. Yesterday I was out of the house ALL DAY. It was splendid. I went berry picking with Dad (I think we got about another gallon of blueberries) and I completely forgot I was supposed to go see Spider-Man with Jai at 1, so we ended up going at 3:40 instead, and I like that movie better every time I see it. :) Then we went to Borders and had drinks and hung out and talked for an hour or so, and then I got to see her new condo before heading home to clean berries and watch some of the Hellboy DVD commentary stuff.

Hokay, to woik now.

  1. My husband and I watched Hellboy last night, and I enjoyed it a lot more than I expected. I never read the comics and didn’t know much about it, so for some reason I just wasn’t all that interested in it.

    I wish I had enjoyed such a productive weekend, writing-wise! Instead I got about 1,000 words written, cleaned up a storm, and slacked on my book the rest of the weekend. Eep!

  2. Brain…melting…Kaitiana…not read…Hellboy…must…stop..the…pain…send…all…issues…to her…NOW!!!!

  4. I never really got into the whole comic thing as a youngster. I’ve only read a few random comics from various runs. My husband had to sell his collection in college (oh the horror!) so I doubt I’ll ever “catch up” so to speak. Poor me! ;)
