Jul. 12th, 2018 07:38 pmUgh. Just, ugh everything. Not even anything new in the news, I'm just having a day of ugh everything and I'm fed up with politics, politicians, and everything. But woodchucks did eat Paul Ryan's truck. Car. Whatever it was. That's worthy of a laugh.
I got my laptop battery today but ugh by the time I got everything else done it had turned midnight and I'm too tired to deal with it now. Tomorrow. Or over the weekend. Oddly, I think I actually feel more tired now that I'm on a new thyroid medication than I did before. Or maybe I'm just more conscious of feeling tired, which is more likely since even if it was a too-strong medication, unless my thyroid's collapsing at an extreme rate of knots, exhaustion shouldn't be a side effect.
On the relative upside, all three projects I'm drafting in writing are coming along swimmingly. I took all my notes on the damn railroad for that story and it kind of fits with what I have in mind, I may have to tweak some things. I need to rename John bloody Constantine in the other story but Pilot of Seville is also managing pretty well. I'm still not sure what I'm going to do if I submit that, what, Monday at this rate, and it gets accepted? I have no idea what I'll do if any of these get accepted, I realized today that I'm running on the premise that all of these projects are going to get rejected, which is admittedly the likelier proposition. But I still don't know for certain. Anything could happen. And it often does, to be fair.
Well, at least I'm submitting. I also do need to come up with a haunted house story over the weekend for that one market. Pfui.
Other than that. What other than that. I'm not sure anything interesting is really going on. I have a dentist appointment next week that I'm not looking forward to. I've added way too much to my credit card in the last couple of months with DragonCon looming, but I don't think there will be any future emergencies that require a credit card so I can pay that down again. Or off. Off would be nice. It could happen with one but not the one I put the vet bills on, ugh. Still, I'll settle for down. Which means this year should be scarce on the autographs and merch at DragonCon, but a lot of the guests are people whose autographs I've gotten in years past. I'm really okay with that becoming a trend, and moving on to panels and hanging out with friends and occasionally standing in line to meet people and taking pictures of costumes. Is this what old con going is like? Though to be fair, I never went to many of the huge fan panels in the past anyway, it was more about meeting friends, wearing costumes, and meeting celebrities.
Thankfully this year I have so much walking to do I'm just reusing old costumes, easy costumes, costumes that are mostly street clothes. Easy peasy no money spending. Well, not much. Socks. Secondhand sweater shopping.
