On the off chance that you check my blog, Emily, I misremembered your room number and the hotel can’t put me through to you because the room’s in somebody else’s name and I don’t know the name. Call me!
EEEEEEEEE!
From Erica this morning: Guess what *I* saw last night?!?!?!? I was paging through my newest issue of /Realms of Fantasy/, when what should I see but . . . A GORGEOUS, FULL-PAGE COLOR AD FOR URBAN SHAMAN!!!!!! Yea, and verily, there was much ado, and squeeeing, and I almost called you to tell you except that I didn’t have your phone number handy. Yay, yay, yay. I cannot tell you how much that thrilled me. :) EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! MUST. GET. REALMS OF FANTASY. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW! *falls over*

weigh in
This morning’s weigh-in puts me at 25 pounds lost since October 7th. Um. Anything else? I decided my book was boring and I’m writing a new chapter or two to spice it up. Fundamental of storytelling: when in doubt, have things go wrong. I got my salwar kameez set, but I don’t get to open it until I hit 40K words, which is about 10K away. Rewards good. :) And it looks like we’ll be going to Oahu for our vacation! And I think that’s all. Time to go back…
