Not bad. 5 chapters edited and 1100 words added. I’ll be very pleased indeed if I keep that up over the course of the book; it’ll come out to a just about perfect wordcount. And there’s more to add, too, but this is the first pass for adding stuff and I’ll have to do the second pass while attached to the internet, for ease in research. Nrgh. I have no brain. I can’t put together enough coherent thoughts to make an interesting blog posting. How can I write fiction when…
damn
Y’know. I am sick and freezing cold and I have barely enough brain power to focus on doing one thing at a time right now. And yet, it just struck me (again) that in a moment I’m going to go downstairs and work on a story that came out of my own head that people will be able to buy in a bookstore at the end of the year.

thinks
Went over to Wendy’s booksigning, which seemed to have a pretty steady flow of people through it (yay!) and went over to my parents’ to deliver their gym memberships (keys to the house) to them. :) Came home with pea soup and blueberry muffins from Mom, and a ginormous hambone for Chanti, who is deeply enamored of it. :) Stopped and got a hot chocolate to sooth my froat, and bought kleenex and dayquil.

Guess I’ll keep up with the vitamin C and hope I don’t get hit as hard as Ted did. He’s been out all week, poor guy. We went to see the new Will Smith movie, “Hitch”, last night. It was pretty cute. :) I might even go see it again sometime. :) I can tell this is going to be the…
the fools, the fools!
I once more defeated entropy and got up and walked this morning, even though I didn’t get up til late. Must re-adjust my sleep schedule to earlier hours. And then, THEN! I lifted weights. Go ME! *flexes mightily* So I’m very cheerful this morning, ’cause I’ve exercised. Oh. I opened a new bag of cat food this morning. I realize nobody else cares about this, but I want to see how long a bag lasts, and being able to search my website on ‘new bag of cat food’ will be…
