Thud: The Patron Saint of Nothing

January 15, 2007 Progress Notes:

The Patron Saint of Nothing

Words today: 1600.
Words total: 24,600 MS Word.
Reason for stopping: End of scene, and so hungry my hands are shaking.
Liquid Refreshment: Lychee tea. Also not a great idea.
Munchies: Raspberry muffins, some cheese, bananas.
Exercise: N/A.
Mail: Nomail.

Darling du Jour: Lyss turned on one foot precise as only a citizen of the Elisaria could, used to the grace of navigating small spaces on uneven and slippery floors.
Tyop du Jour: N/A
Words MS Word Doesn't Know: overpolished, smartmouthed, waterbird, unembarrassable

Mean Things: Case: Bullied by a charity clinic nurse via the simple expedient of "you let us operate on the leg or you'll lose it".
Lyss: Getting squidgy on the personal boundaries issues. And someone just let slip a secret! Heh heh heh.
Research Roundup: Just dipping back into the Zulu names sites.
Books in progress: Katherine Mansfield, Selected Stories; Catherynne M. Valente, The Orphan's Tales: In the Night Garden; Jay Lake, Trial of Flowers; Textbooks.

The glamour: Soooo I went down to the office today and put in a work order to fix the hot water tap, and they said "soon" so I hung around here all afternoon and into the evening. Whence I went down to the office and said "wtf?" and they said "oh it's in the pile for tomorrow".

I sorta had errands to run today.

Hate.


Day Ten:

Zokutou word meterZokutou word meter
9,000 / 67,500
(13.3%)


So...since I'm away four days this weekend, I only need to do 1250 words a day for the next three days to stay on target for the week. >.<

...maybe I'll catch up when I get home.



Okay, my hands are shaking from the general lack of eating going down around here. Baaaad monkeybrain to abuse the meatpuppet so.

I will be interesting once there's dinner on the table.

Four Days Away

Four days away is a GOOD THING. Especially if it's into a different climate - warm would be nice for this correspondent.
Enjoy your time away.

Oh, it is. And the warm will be lovely.

I am getting myself into a bit of a workaholic streak this month, I suspect. I'm not sure if it's good or bad. But I need to, yes, not angst about words when I'm on the beach. *g*
