kittydesadeOkay so that was... I'm not sure what that was. Crashed hard at midnight, woke up at a little after 6, stayed in bed because omg tired and I knew I should get some more sleep, but since I ended up staying in bed playing silly phone games it was lapsing in and out of consciousness until showering and getting up at 8 to do the non-exercise portions of my morning routines. Which, the exercise portion is a whole hour, so I didn't miss much. I feel slightly guilty for taking two hours to doze and play phone games, but damn did I need that rest.
So... yeah, I got nothing. Except a faint hope that today is less absurd than yesterday. Not sure how well that's going to go, yesterday I got a phone call that strongly implied that a past debacle (long story, seriously) was about to repeat itself, so we'll see. But. Maybe there will be less running around and hauling of boxes? And less nibbling to death by ducks. Especially geoducks. They don't even nibble properly, it's like being nibbled to death by spoo.
Which is hilarious if you know the Babylon 5 references.
Anyway. Other than that, got up, did a fair amount of Hindi and am slowly improving my comprehension, although it would still help to have all the gloss at the end of the book. Working on things bit by bit. I think today I might revisit my to-do lists and make sure they're up to date, although the bulk of it will, I think, involve finishing edits on Sandborn and Queen and Parliament so those can either be up or almost up by the time I'm at DragonCon. And then the other option is mashing Black Ice into print, which still terrifies me but I should have done that literally months ago. But didnt because it does terrify me. So we'll see how that goes. At the very least I might make up promo postcards to get printed through Vistaprint, I still have time for that I think. Barely.
So. See, self? Things are not terrible. Actually things are pretty fun, I found out one of my capoeira classmates also speaks Russian and enjoys language geeking too, if not necessarily to the same extent I take it I think for not wanting to prioritize it above other things, so there's a strong possibility that I'm going to end up speaking Russian when she gets back from her thing and I get back from DragonCon.
So. Life going somewhat better today than yesterday, no doubt highly motivated by the better sleep.Let's hope the rest of the day follows suit!
