YAY the Phoenix landed safely! …that was totally not what I was going to write about, but more or less the first thing I do in the mornings is check out the APotD, and YAY the Phoenix landed safely! *beams* Right. Where was I. Last night I was observing to Deborah that I was all out of give-a-shit. She observed in return that actually, what was impressive was that I was all out of grim. I believe she nailed the actual problem there, and it seems that having had it…
Tag: thinks to do
zip zip zip
I actually got a huge amount done on Friday, although out of the four things on the “Must Do Today” list, only 2 of them got done. Still, one of them was the critical one, and I did get a lot done. And IRON MAN *rocked*. I will see it again in the theatre. Possibly twice. And on the off chance you haven’t been told yet, stay through the credits. We also went to “Nim’s Island”, which was cute if not Ted’s cup of tea (I like kids’ movies better…

As posted today/last night/whatever (this time zone thing is a you-know-what in the ass), she defines what constitutes a “good” day’s writing, in her opinion: Marginally Acceptable — 1000 words Fair — 2000 words Good — 3000 words Glorious — 4000+ words I’m beginning to…
this can’t be a good sign
I woke up this morning with “Wheels On The Bus (Go Round and Round)” stuck in my head. I don’t even have any children on whom this can be blamed. This *cannot* be a good sign… Thinks to do this evening if I can hold my brain together enough to do them: – answer matrice mail – answer dabel mail – answer fan mail – watch Torchwood (this, I can do) *sigh* All right, off to a slightly later start than the last couple days. I plead for encouragement today.…
