very. very. frustrated.

Target points: 22 Points used: 23.5 Activity points earned/swapped: 2/1.5 WPA used/remaining: 35/35 My WW account expired in December or so, when I couldn’t get the damned WW site to accept my overseas billing address. So I’m now trying to renew it with a different credit card, one that still has a US address. This card worked perfectly yesterday when I paid for something else with it. The frelling WW site won’t accept it. Dammit. I can do a reasonable job of estimating points and things, but that’s basically only…

huh!

To my complete astonishment, I ended up with 4700 words today. I figured it’d be a good day if I got to 3K, since I got started so late. Wow. Go me. :) I’m 300 words short of 90K, for heaven’s sake, but I don’t think I’m going to sit down and write those 300 just for the hell of it. I’ll settle for breaking 90K tomorrow. And hopefully charging along to about 95K. I think I have about five chapters left, which would be just exactly perfectly right. Woot.…

good news, bad news

Got up late and got started writing late, but I’m moving along. 1300 or 1500 or something words so far.

It’s probably not more than six or ten pages total, and it’ll smooth the whole story out, but I do wish I’d thought of how to handle this earlier. Oh well. …still have other things to write on the…

not exactly defeated…

I haven’t exactly declared defeat, but I have declared redesign, after spending a bunch of time futzing with embedding LJ and not having it react the way I wanted. (Deborah, when I said, “Fine, I’m REDESIGNING,” said, “Inevitably. How’s your hair?” *laugh* These people, they know me too well.) Anyway, I’ve tested the design on all four browsers I have and it works, so if you have problems, shift-reload. I have things to post about. Adventures At The Movies, and … other stuff. But instead of doing that, I’m going…

on converting to lj

After far, far more trouble than it was worth, I learned how to embed my LJ into mizkit.com. I am now attempting (for some value of now) to make it a seamless integration. None of this is happening on the front page, and for the moment I’m still using MT. If I do a switch, I’ll, I don’t know, announce 24 hours in advance that I’m going to, so people can sign off the mizkit_feed if they’ve got LJ accounts and can just get the updates through friending mizkit. In…
