I haven’t been feeling all that well today (I think I ate too many things that weren’t good for me) and so I spent, well, since the last posting, reading Carol Berg’s SONG OF THE BEAST, which was really a tremendously good story, and very well written. I’m sort of sliding between reading more, watching some Highlander, or doing a little more writing (or maybe TQB editing) for the rest of the evening. Content, sleepy me.
woot!
Got my 1500 words for the day, donno if I’ll do any more. I know where I’m picking up with this chapter, and suddenly as I was writing it I had the idea that I had 10 chapters to go. I don’t know if that’s actually accurate, but I think it’s pretty close. So if I manage 1500 words a day I ought to be done by 20 Feb, and since nothing ever works as planned, I *anticipate* being done by 1 Mar. Which is one year exactly before it’s…
stargate, chiro, & stuff
I decided yesterday afternoon that I needed to go to the chiro, so I made an appointment and went over and my back went CRRRRRRSHT! CRRRRRRRSHT!

I guess Fridays are mostly my mornings off from writing, which is primarily because Ted doesn’t have to get up at 5:30 to go to class, so I feel no guilt about staying in bed. I’ll probably…
*glrrhghgh*
*Glrhrhghgh*. Unreasonable frustration and anger. I use a service called Messagefire to deal with spam on one of my email accounts. It’s extremely good and rarely misses spam. Once in a while, however, it misses a piece, and for some reason or other, my Outlook Express doesn’t have the nifty popup window Messagefire seems to claim will appear if you look in the headers, or something, so that you can send them a message and say “this is junk mail”.
