tired brain

My brain’s tired. Holding this jigsaw together in my mind is hard. I just hit 300 pages on the rewrite, and I’ve got 9 more chapters of stuff that’s actually written to rewrite, plus the whole other plotline I’m putting in, and while I’ve hit a kind of critical mass, my brain is /still/ tired. I feel like my head is floating around with all the pieces of the story as the helium to keep it up. I didn’t order pizza, though. ytd wordcount: 231,100 miles to Lothlorien: 249

whinge.

Hungry. Sleepy. Frustrated by work; a page that wasn’t working turned out to be not working because it really, really doesn’t have the support it needs on this site I’m developing. It didn’t get speced out properly and I didn’t know that, and couldn’t figure out why it wasn’t working, and asked Barb who got frustrated about it, and… blah.

For hours and hours. And hours. And hours. o.o cemurphy redesign is up and more or less functional. It’s got some problems in Netscape/Mozilla that I’m trying to figure out, but not with a lot of effort. :) Lots and lots and…

good stuff

Good stuff, good stuff, life is just full of good stuff. Like pot roast. We went to Mom & Dad’s for dinner last night and it was really, really good pot roast and biscuits which I think we all ate too many of because there were so many kinds of very, very good homemade jam to put on them. :) Terry Brooks is doing a book signing at Title Wave tonight, and there is a Sisters in Crime meeting at, um. Barnes & Noble. I should go to both of…
