Oof. Well. I cooked. I cleaned. I wrote a fair bit, including a piece I posted yesterday that was way more depressing than I wanted to write, but hey. I watched shittons of Boston Legal while I did both of these. I'm probably about as prepared for the sale today as I'm going to get, and I still don't know how bad it's going to be. Last time, it wasn't that bad. The times before that, oh dear lord. There's just no way of telling.

I had way more to post here over the weekend and I've completely forgotten what most of it was. I did, however, get my Western novel outline halfway done. Which is good! I got an artist for Holmes Big Bang, which is also good; apparently for the last couple of days my summary just hadn't gotten struck out, which was somewhat confusing, but hey. That's done with, now I just have to finish writing the damn thing. And work on the other frillion projects I have to work on. Which, given their due dates, shouldn't be too hard. I just can't take on any major new projects? Ugh, need to re-organize my writing schedule.

Need to do laundry. That's the one thing that didn't get done this weekend. Maybe I can convince the boy to do it today. The beatings will continue until the laundry is done.

Ugh. Don't want to do stuff today. Want to write some more. Sadly, that probably won't happen till around lunch, at which point it will be writing in Japanese, and then back to the grindstone. And ... well, something. I'll see how much stuff I can get done in general.

HAH. Gotcha, you little shit. This makes three damn starfield eggs and one of the other. Not so bad. Looks like Beast Boy went into egg form.

First day of the mail order sale was not as bad as it could have been. In either sense, both not as bad as in nobody ordered and not as bad as in I didn't go crazy. Tomorrow promises to be somewhat crazymaking, but today was all right.

Still need to make some Japanese language icons. Actually, I need to make some more language icons in general. And possibly go through and tag my language learning posts with grammar points so I can reference if I need to. Oh my god I am such a dork.

I did fix up my writing schedule, so there's that. I might clean up the kitchen from this morning's mess tonight, but more likely I'll curl up with a big slab of spinach lasagna (omg so good) and do some writing and editing. Mostly editing. I'm actually kind of enthused about all the big projects I have to do, which is something of a first. And I kind of think I can actually finish it. God knows what I'll do when I do finish it and put it up for sale, or what have you, but we'll see? I am kind of sad that I'm doing... not so much that I'm doing Martine for my Big Bang, but the Western world one. Although the way things have been going with my attempts to pitch books to people, might be just as well that I'd have to sell this one on my own. Stupid bloody rejection letters. Which reminds me, I should make time to send out submissions this month, too. Ugh.

This is your note to self, self. Book all your reservations and tickets and shit tonight. Seriously.
