I got the chapter done almost despite myself. I really had to cajole myself into hitting 1500 words (from the 1300 I’d had), but after that I sort of finished it by surprise. But being surprised that way is nice! :) If I’m Hideous Cool, I’ll write a couple more chapters for the proposal, but I need to rewrite the first chapter first. By the end of the 3rd chapter, something I wasn’t expecting happened, so I’m looking forward to exploring the consequences of that. Which is probably part of…
walking, writing
The sun came out and the wind warmed up yesterday, so I did walk more. Except it turned out there was a puddle approximately the size and depth of Lake Superior at the end of Wendy Way, so instead of walking the coastal trail like I’ve been doing I was obliged to wander the neighborhood rather than risk drowning in the Ginormous Puddle. Emily sent me this DVD of this funny 70s British tv show called “Two’s Company”, which is about an American writer and her British butler. I’ve watched…

WHOOOOSH! 2300 words today, ch. 2 finished, plan to more or less blow through ch. 3 tomorrow and fix ch. 1 on Sunday and look at the synopsis then too (weekend? what’s a weekend?), and send off the FD proposal. If I am extremely, *extremely*…

shopping :)
Mom and I went shopping. I got 8 new shirts and 2 new bras. I found out the reason all the bras are shaped this year is because they’re making shirts out of very thin semi-sheer spandexy material and it’s so your nipples don’t poke people’s eyes out. That seems reasonable. So I got one of those bras to go with some of my new shirts. And because nearly all of these shirts have some spandex involved, they will continue to fit me as I shrink further, so it’s all…
