I’m blaming the cookies we had left in the house, but jeez, I was just hungry. I still don’t really have good snack foods in the house. Graham crackers are okay. Better if I don’t put butter on ’em, obviously. I have fruits and things, but there’s a limit to how much fruit I can talk myself into eating. I need to remember I can have, like,…

Halfway through PHOENIX edits. Still nothing traumatizing. I’m enjoying this book. I said, as I usually do, in some astonishment, to Ted, “I think this is pretty good,” and he, as usual, snorted at me and expressed Great Surprise, No, Really. (Sometimes, to be fair, I say I think maybe it’s not all that good, and then he doesn’t believe me. I’m so put-upon. I think. Let’s see, what do I know. I got an emailed interview request yesterday, so when that’s posted I’ll point people at it. That made…

Testing your yeast

A second batch of bread utterly failed. Either the bread gods hate me or the yeast is bad. I’ve certainly gone through a lot of flour today, though. :P I’m up to about page 80 on PHOENIX LAW. I’m really enjoying it. o.o There’s nitpicky stuff I’m dealing with, but so far I’m not finding anything huge that has to be redone.

Wow. I totally killed the yeast in this batch of bread. It didn’t rise at *all*. I’ve never done that before. Go team Kit. :P Guess I get to start /that/ over. :P I’m supposed to be editing PHOENIX. Instead I’m writing an introduction for ‘s new art book that is working on. This has, among other things, FORCED me (forced, I tell you) to go tripping merrily through metalandmagic giggling over Ursula’s weird mind. :) O, What Hardship. :) On another topic entirely, I had a small epiphany yesterday.…

back on the wagon. i hope. :p

For the first time in a very long time I measured out my breakfast cereal. They seem to think 3/4ths cup of raisin bran is a serving. It’s not very damned much, I tell you that. I miss my Kashi GoLean Crunch, which is more expensive in points, but buried beneath berries makes a really filling yummy breakfast. They don’t seem to have it here, though. I was able to re-sign up for the WW Online site. Turns out they don’t care (or at least track) where you are as…
