headache.

Too many things to do to keep in my head, so I’d better write them down. Sigh. – borrow Ted’s brain for plotting – read the s&3 – get a beatsheet for chance #6 written …I can’t even think of other thinks I need to do. And now Dwan’s got me singing “Don’t go chasing waterfalls” so I’m infecting all of YOU TOO AHAHAHAHA o.o miles to Minas Tirith: 41.7

up and running

New computer is up and running, thanks be to Myles for providing it and Ted for doing the heavy lifting.
