hair fix #3

Going in this afternoon to try for the third time to get my hair fixed. I swear if there’s even the slightest hitch I’m getting it cut off. Tammy apparently scored a Rogue X3 poster for me while she was at Balticon last weekend. I have excellent friends. *beam* is burning through season one of La Femme Nikita at an outrageous rate, and making me cackle with delight. I warned her about eight million times that the first several episodes aren’t any good at all, and then there’s a sudden…

and it’s done.

Rewrites on the end of the book are done. Today, for the first time in … months. *Many* months. I do not hate the book. I don’t ever want to see it again (which is unfortunate, because I still have some detail work to do through the body of the thing), but while writing today was slow, it wasn’t a god-awful struggle.

I will listen to it, er, maybe while I’m writing, but I actually don’t think Nook has any CD-playing software. Hm! I also got what I…

good news, bad news

Good news: I’ve written 4300 words today. Bad news: only 1300 of them have been on HEART OF STONE. The rest have been…I struggle with what to call it. It’d be fanfic if I actually wrote the whole thing, but I’ve RP’d for so long I don’t actually have any particular interest in writing a whole fanfic; someone else has to do the other half. So I guess it’s a ton of introductory scenelets or something. Anyway, it’s all the mutant Kit‘s fault, and it was a lot more fun…
