wonders of wonders

Wonders of unending wonders, I have actually sent my passport paperwork. Well. Money for it, actually, since I sent the paperwork ages ago. Woo. We got some grapes that have a certain kick the them. Woo. My. Woo. *blinkblink* They’re good, just, woo. And I wear my geek hat at a cocky angle, for I have picked up the Smallville soundtrack. :) And NOW I have put all of DEIRDRE’S stuff in an envelope! If she would only tell me her address, I could PUT IT IN THE MAIL! *gasp*

Elektra

Elektra is all right. It’s not good, it’s not bad, it’s just (nice!) all right. There was too much introspection (“We don’t care about her tortured past, we just want to see her kick ass!”, said Ted), but there were some nice bits, and generally, yeah, it was all right.

2359 words, and I might still write some more later. Not sure yet. My brain’s starting to get a little chewy. There are a couple people reading the rough draft for this book, and I’d imagine their brains have gone right out the window, because I’m dropping things and coming up with new things and having unsubstantiated things arrive out of nowhere and, you know, all the rot that goes along with a first draft. I’ve got pages of notes of things to fix, and some other things that need…

glee!

Glee! I shouldn’t have turned the desktop computer on yet this morning, as I haven’t written yet, but I had to, ’cause glee! First, the official weigh-in this morning was down another pound, so I’ve lost 17 pounds since Oct. 7th. And second, I took my second pair of size 14s out of the closet and discovered they were more badly thrashed than I thought they were, so I veeeery nervously tried on the new 12s I got for Christmas, which I hadn’t been going to do until I’d lost…
