kittydesadeWell, today makes the first day in a while that I haven't woken up feeling like hammered shit and the first few lines of Shadows in the Rain, so I guess that's progress?
On the amusing side I am so enamored of my Think Geek con-bag of Holding that I might end up turning it to everyday use on the days when I'm not schlepping craft projects to and from work. Which of course I half decide on the day when I'm schlepping a Stitch Fix box to if not from work, but hey. That only happens once a month anyway. And I finally made my decision, which is that if the color is making me make dubious faces it's also a simple top I can always sew anyway, I think I have a pattern or three for the base shape and all I need to do is add a ruffle down the front. Of course, this requires that I get off my ass and sew the damn things. Maybe not this weekend but next weekend. Besides, the jacket is a very Firefly/Killjoys/Cowboys and Aliens aesthetic. And I can't sew pleather, not that well.
Despite the superfluity of phone calls and every phone order needing at least two phone calls and maybe an email (why. what's up with that. why can't you make a list, check it, and THEN call.) I managed to get two out of the remaining three DragonSwag packages out, and the third I just need to make sure I have the right email address and then get the snail mail address because damned if I know where I put it.
I seem to have notes back on Malachy WAY WAY sooner than I had expected, or maybe just that the whole thing is way way more coherent than I thought it was. Needs tightening like all get out and apparently I need to tack on another 10-20k because nothing got resolved oops. (And that's what happens when you try to write a novel in a Nano. You get fatigued and fall over.) At which point I think I need to re-read it... well, no, maybe it is just about the right time. And figure out how to deal with this other than Girls Stomp On Necks. Which might actually be the solution! Pondering. But, on the other hand, now that I'm more upright and functional I might get that and some of the other writing stuff done.
Which I really need to do. Plus cleaning. I need focus, and I'm not getting it, and I'm not doing very good at making myself have it. Time to get back to work on that, especially since I don't think I have any other major deadlines or several days encompassing things. Not till Nanowrimo at any rate, and that's a month and a chunk away.
