Jul. 8th, 2003 07:30 pmI have tiny feet.
So, I was actually somewhat productive today. Went out running since I've been afraid of the heat for the past few days, and with the lion scare it's been pretty much hide in the house. The lion, by the way, has been deemed nonexistant. Damnit. Also did about a hundred situps and a passel of pushups, nearly causing myself to retch from the strain, but hey. Now if I can just keep this up for several weeks I might actually be in shape.
Wish me luck, folks. I have an interview coming up that could be a sure thing, or it could be a sure bust. And this whole not knowing thing is killing me. I kind of wish Blue hadn't said what he had... well, done is done, and there's no undoing. Or unknowing. I just hope something comes out of this. Otherwise.. bleh.
I need to get back into the habit of writing my 10,000 words per day. I'm not sure how and I'm not sure why, but I do. I used to be able to do it... okay, really, I used to be able to do 7,000 words per day. But I need to get back in the damn habit. I've been such a slacker lately. Although the story-finishing spree was quite useful. Gave me at least a bit of a feeling of accomplishment. I think the problem now will be to figure out what to do with half the novels and novellas I've written and never finished. I think I'll start with Maxi.
Pfui. Other than that, life is singularly uneventful. We've got Pirates of the Carribean (yay Johnny and Geoffrey!) tomorrow, LXG on Friday (yay Jason!), and Palladium shortly after that. Business as usual. I need to go grocery shopping, get milk and juice and do something about that lemonade that may or may not still be good.
All these mundane little tasks. Ah well.
Okay. So for today's 10,000 words I need to do:
1. Another chapter (or two) in Understanding
2. Some in Strange New World
3. Some in Ghosts
4. Some in random spaceport fic
That's roughly 2,500 words each story... I think I can manage that
