Jul. 11th, 2017 02:34 pmOkay, no nightmares last night at least. So for small favors we can be grateful. Did manage Wynonna Earp, which was awesome as per usual and full of WHAT. and UM. and FUCK. Enjoyable! This is how the braintwin and I enjoy things, but there was a lot of swearing and incredulity at the show. Also a lot of fun had.
The new work computer is finally set up and at this point the only reason the old computer is set up at all is file transfer. Which means I need to get all the paperwork cleared up so I can do all the appropriate filing and so on. That stuff gets left around anyway though. Oops. I really am awful about filing things and I need to get better about that. But NEW COMPUTER. Hopefully I won't have to upgrade from Win10 for a good fucking long time after this. The week of software fails was incredibly stressful and annoying.
Did I mention I turned in the Malachy draft? I turned in the Malachy draft. So that's done. I need to figure out when the hell I turned in the TS drafts and when I should contact these people and so on, all that information is in an email filed away somewhere so mostly I just have to look at it and set up alerts on my phone or somewhere. But blegh logistics. I need to set up a Patreon. I need to figure out how that's going to work, what works to put on it (Possibly Starlight and Malachy at this point/rate) aaand I need to redo my web page to take out Imzy and put on Patreon. Poop. Poop on Patreon. And possibly my blog. Which reminds me I should do that other blog entry now that I have a twitter audience of still around 4k. This was, what, last fall/winter that something I typed went viral and I gained 4k new followers? I had 600 to start with, very slowly climbing but 600. Then went up to 4700 and now it's down to 4300 and change so yes, I'm assuming I have a rounded up 3k of people who are not bots and at least interested enough not to stop following me. So, um. I should start blogging again. Possibly instead of clogging people's Twitter feeds.
I'm so excited about my new work computer that I'm cleaning off my home computers too. Heh. I really need to get a better backup hard drive than the clunky one I have right now, but I guess that'll be good enough for another several months. Maybe at Christmas I'll get myself a new one. And in the meantime, all my language books are off the flash drive and onto the desktop, most of the fonts are all backed up in appropriate places, god knows all my writing work is backed up in five places. I think mostly it's just figuring out where all the individual little randomass files go. Over the next few days.
Still surprisingly happy, rested, exercised, moving forward in work and writing and so on and so forth. Getting back into the habit of Habitica, heh. Slowly, very slowly. I might also install a lot of my writing programs on the computer at work, although I feel a bit guilty about installing Scrivener and Gimp and so on when I should mainly keep it for work stuff. Only a little bit. Blergh. I'll figure something out. And Patreon. I definitely need to figure Patreon out.
