Yesterday involved all sorts of things. I actually went on a bike ride! A little one, just 5 miles, but I’m reaaaaaaallllllly trying not to overdo it, so a little ride was good. And I walked another mile with the puppy. And I finished editing my last 60 pages but I didn’t listen to the new Jim Byrnes CD yet, and I watched some Law & Order instead of reading US again. And, um, we gamed, which was fun, and now we all have cool psionic powers, which we didn’t…
chugging along
Chugging along. I have 60 pages left to read/edit in US and then I’ll, um. Re-read it. I’ve walked 4 miles since yesterday’s posting, so I’m ever closer to Rivendell. We went and saw 13 Going On 30 last night, then watched 3 episodes of Alias, so it was a very heavy Jennifer Garner night. 13->30 is very cute. Alias is very good. I had Jennifer Garner dreams last night. (Ted said,”Jeez. I had post apocalyptic alien invasion dreams.”) And oh, Hot Licks opened! A couple of weeks ago, apparently!…
Silkie rocks.
Silkie managed to do what I have not been able to do for months and months: she found IVD Select Care HiFactor cat food online. Apparently by the time-honored method of going to Google and typing in IVD Select Care, which I swear to God has not worked for me. Although I suspect I’ve been more specific, or something, and that’s what’s been kicking my ass. Anyway, there are now two VERY GODDAMNED EXPENSIVE bags of cat food on the way to Alaska, and when I break open the second…
not much to say
Not much to say this morning. I got up for the first time all week and got another 50 pages of editing done. I’ll just be glad when this first pass is through and I can re-read it again and have more of a feel for the book. If I do another 50 pages at lunch… ok, that’s not likely. But if I do my hundred pages tonight I’ll just have 60 left to do tomorrow and then I’ll re-read it again on Sunday. I’m babbling. We watched the first…
oi.
Oi. Did another 100 pages of editing tonight, which went okay, except it’s very weird. I have very little sense of this book, right now. I haven’t read it in a long time and I know things happen in it, but I don’t really know *when* many of them happen. Once I’m done with this edit/read-through I’m going to have to go through it again, to make sure I really do know where to add things in and stuff, and then I’m going to start revising. So far there’s only…
