Read the first 20 chapters or so of TBF this afternoon. Gotta finish it tomorrow, though I can see a lot of things that need to be done. Viva la revisions. :) Also walked another 3 miles and am quite sleepy now. :) Oh! Yesterday I was out walking and wearing my ridiculous pompom hat that Angie made me, and a *school bus* pulled up alongside me so all the kids could yell, “I LIKE YOUR HAT!” and so the bus driver could ask me where I’d gotten it. Isn’t…
clear roads = lots of walking
We loves the clear roads, we do, precious. 3 miles yesterday and 2 this morning. We loves setting our own schedule, too, precious. See, this is what I’ve observed: if I get started by 8, I am extremely productive. If I get started by 9, I’m reasonably productive. If I get started at 10, I’m somewhat productive. After that the whole day is shot to hell. So I got up at 7 today and was at the computer by 8, and got 1700 words written on FD by 10 when…
decadant life
I live a decadant life. I’ve just made a loaf of brown oatmeal soda bread which smells stunningly good, and as soon as it’s cooled off a bit I’m going to have a nice big chunk of it with a bowl of homemade ham and bean soup. The only thing that could possibly improve on this meal would be a glass of whole milk, but I’ve only got 2%, so that’ll just have to do. Perhaps to make up for the 2% I’ll have some homemade peach jam on my…
and it’s off
FIREBIRD DECEPTION proposal is done and off. Had a complete failure to communicate with the PR person yesterday. Crossed wires. I sent email Sunday saying, ‘How about you call tomorrow?’ and she got it on Monday and interpreted ‘tomorrow’ as ‘Tuesday’. So she called at the stroke of 9am this morning, but I was in the midst of working on the proposal, and I’m trying *very* hard not to answer the phone when I’m writing. I was nearly done, so I emailed her a couple of minutes later and we…
mileage, mostly
Nice weekend. Walked on the treadmill because it was pouring rain yesterday and again this morning because I have a phone call with Harlequin sometime this morning and I didn’t know what time I’d be, so I wanted to walk early so I wouldn’t totally miss my walk. Turns out it’s at 9, so I wouldn’t have missed walking time anyway, but it’s good to have walked. Besides, I had to watch the second of the Dark Quickening episodes. :) miles to Rauros Falls: 62.5
