I think I might actually have to apply a wall o' Irish tag.

Well, both game and chocolate Cadbury eggs did not happen this weekend. But blogging happened, the Grimm recapalypse got up faster than I think either of us expected, because we are that fucking awesome. And the boy gave me one of his snickers bars to compensate for the lack of cadbury. No, I don't know why I like those atrocious mockeries of confections, I just do. Also, there was more Hobbit. I do love seeing The Hobbit on a big screen.

Today's statement of intent: Two scenes of line edits at least, plus bashing on the outline for White Lightning's main story some. Actually probably bashing on the outline for White Lightning entirely, the side stories are going to be more integrated in this one. Brainstorming and outlining another story for submission to LSQ, something a bit lighter this time, possibly brainstorming and outlining a story for submission to Fireside, and when the hell did I get to doing submissions again? Seriously. I thought I was done with that, but apparently not. Here's hoping my ego can take it. Because that's the biggest reason I quit last time. Oh, and while I'm doing statements of intent, coding up the story I wrote on Twitter on Friday for no real apparent reason. Might as well get that up on the website.

I don't actually know how much of that I'm going to get done. Tonight there is also dinner cooking and Prophecy watching with a crowd on twitter, which ought to be interesting. Anna and I have seen it before, some of the others have seen it before, I'm not sure which other than the new kid's seen it, and in general, this ought to be interesting. That was a bit of a fucked up movie. Of course, the latter were both fucked up and fairly bad, so at least the first won't offend on the bad movie front.

Holy crap, I think I'm ready on time! That never happens!

Well, that was more translating practice than I've done in the last five days or so. Only two questions and the last of the one-word questions from the character-building worksheet, and only in German, but it's a start. Possibly an awkwardly translated start. I'll go over it again tomorrow, but, building habits.

I'm actually making some forward progress on both line edits and all the outlining I meant to be doing, which is a bit of startlement. One more chunk and I'll have finished the line edits I wanted to do today, and I already have ideas for most of the submissions. Tonight might be devoted to working out the rest of the damn outline for White Lightning/Untitled Main Story, so I can get that done, and that won't be too bad with the Prophecy tweetalong. The only trick will be making sure it's White Lightning and not Mad Angel Blues.

Ugh, doing the overclocking thing with my head again. The one where I've got so many things going on it feels like my brain might be about to overheat. I only have to keep this up for another hour, maybe? Sort of. Though technically I shouldn't be keeping this up at all.

Right. Statements of intent for tonight! Go home, put in Prophecy, feed cats, start chopping chicken and mixing sauce. Keep eye on clock to start Prophecy at the appropriate time. Make dinner, sit down with dinner, Prophecy, and first line edits, then outlines to see if I can bang out some text for that. If I can bang out some text for that, sitting down with Sandborn and trying to expand that more better. No line edits on that, self, only extra scenes or extra bits within scenes.

Oi, my brain and the overclocking. Mile a minute, I am.
