A whole chapter so far today. Break time for a while, then back to the grindstone. And, having reached more than 20K for my YTD wordcount, I have broken out of the Dire Ones, which is always emotionally satisfying. :) I also hit 250 pages with the manuscript, which means 70-90 more to go. I have this bit I like at the end of this chapter and I hope it’ll all work out. :) Will be VERY glad to be done with the rough draft so I can fix everything.…
“I’m only fast compared to most people.”
So I had a great swim today. The girl in the lane next to me was right about my speed, so I was working to keep up with her (and kept thinking, *damn*, but she’s really got me on the flip turns), and she started working to stay ahead of me, so we both got a good swim in, and after I was done I said, “Man, you really kicked my butt on the flip turns,” and she said, “I was thinking the same thing about you!” *laugh* We had…
horrible sleepies
Horrible sleepies. Slogged my way through a chapter, not because the chapter was boring but because I was v. sleepy myself. Obliged to take a nap halfway through the chapter. Hoping right now that Ted comes home in time to bring me to swimming, as promised, because I so need the exercise. It’s largely that that’s making me sleepy, I think, so I’m hoping that exercise will revitalize me enough to write more afterwards. It’s still cold and slippery out. *sigh* And to add insult, it’s windy, too. Poor Chanti…
making book
1250 v. slow words so far today. Borrowed Ted’s brain, figured out the widget I needed, and will carry on in a few minutes here after I’m…well. Technically I’m now done with lunch, but I’m taking a few more minutes to hang out and listen to the Smallville soundtrack and geek with Deborah over the lovely brokenness that is the Luthor family. :) Frozenated. *brr* Ok, I guess I have to go write more. Ted’s going over to Christopher’s to make up a character for a new game later, but…
better :)
Managed to see Jai today. Didn’t blow her off. Go me. :) We had a nice hour and a half or so of hanging out and talking, and have proposed the novel idea of doing this *weekly*. *gasp*! Plus we’re gonna go see House of Flying Daggers as soon as we figure out when we can both make it. :) Ted and I shopped and Ted got his hairs cut and … that’s about it, really, but it’s been a nice day. And if I’m a good Kit I shall…
