thinks to do today

– finish up HoC edits & post research questions here – laundry – change the kitty litter :p – bake a cake or two – bake bread – walk dog – grin like goddamned idiot over the couple pages of roughs ardian sent me for chance 2 I didn’t swim this morning. I did, however, walk all over hell and breakfast trying to find bittersweet chocolate in Cobh and completely failed. My sister’s birthday cake will have to be semi-sweet chocolate instead of bittersweet. Somehow I think she’ll survive. :)…

WOOT!

Against all expectation, the leisure centre pool is open in the *mornings*! 7:30-9am on MWF. I’m going to arrange for a cab to pick me up at 7am MWF so I have no excuse to not go, and WOOT!

Nngh.

First editing pass is done. I feel like I’ve fixed pathetically little in it, although I think I did manage to fix the problem where I’d written approximately 6 work days and 3 weekend days into the 8 days the novel covers. o.O Tomorrow I’ll transfer back to the other computer and fix the scenes I’ve left notes for myself in, and with any luck I’ll collect all the questions I need to put to the Great Minds Of LiveJournal and get them posted tomorrow night so Thursday I can…
