Oh. I wanted to say…

Oh. I wanted to say this. I have a whole lot of friends who are writers. Some of them are working on their first novels, some of them are short-story writers, some are just starting the scary scary process of submitting to agents and publishers, some haven’t gotten that far yet. I have at least one friend who is a multi-published, best-selling author. The writers I know run the gamut. And I think it is just so incredibly cool that I know all of you. That I get to be…

I actually got up at a fairly reasonable hour (er, okay, at what point in my life did SIX FIFTEEN IN THE MORNING become a REASONABLE HOUR?) and got not only my 1100 words written, but also another 450 after that, which caught me up to yesterday’s writing.

I have a *very* lovey Lucy lap cat this morning. I wonder what’s up with her. :) Gym class last night was good. This morning my biceps went *gnrgh*. :) The teacher, after showing me a proper way to do bicep curls, said I was strong.

Although I did a 70 pound bench press, which impressed me! *laugh* And 7 miles on the bike,…

The writing, it went slowly this morning. Not badly, just slowly. But! I got my 1100 words in, albeit no *more* than that, so all is well. Having a splendid talk with Stella about writing. Writers are so cool. I have such awesome friends. *beam* ytd wordcount: 104,000

I had vague plans to go to the gym today, but Saturday I jammed my stupid knee and gymming yesterday made it hurt quite a bit, and it still hurts today, so, well, I didn’t go. I did, however, accomplish everything on my list of thinks to do. And, um. *looks around vaguely* I guess that’s all, then. Oh. We went to Barnes & Noble and Title Wave tonight, and at Title Wave I got a book called Wars of the Irish Kings, because I saw it and thought, “Ooh,…
