leahbobetJanuary 27, 2007 Progress Notes:
The Patron Saint of Nothing
Words today: 1300.
Words total: 28,200 MS Word.
Reason for stopping: It's a nice round number.
Liquid Refreshment: Water.
Munchies: Lasagna for dinner, then some toast with lime marmalade for snack.
Exercise: N/A.
Mail: Nomail.
Darling du Jour: She lifted her head a little: they'd not given her a lot of rope to work with. She could only lift halfway, like a fight dog all tied up before they let it into the pits. Case looked away from her. It was embarrassing, watching a grown lady like that.
Tyop du Jour: --it was full of all the stories about what Izinduna did to the kids who pissed them off – burning and washtubs full of fresh-caught singers on the back--
Words MS Word Doesn't Know: N/A
Mean Things: Case: When they drug you for surgery and you wake up tied to the bed, well, the bad thoughts show up.
Zithembe: Being pwned by his four-year-old daughter, his pregnant debate-master sister, and a small kitten.
Lyss: Here, have two rambunctious, homocidal gang children. We don't want them anymore.
Catherine: Well, now that all the dead people are bloating around our house, well we'll just have to go out forvictims dinner now. Fine. Be that way.
Research Roundup: African rug patterns, birds of Venice, coral.
Books in progress: Flannery O'Connor, The Complete Stories; Catherynne M. Valente, The Orphan's Tales: In the Night Garden; Jay Lake, Trial of Flowers; Textbooks.
The glamour: I actually got a buttload of stuff done today: slush, reading for three classes, making lasagna, kitchen-cleaning, words, miscellany, and a bath. And was weirdly tired throughout.
Day Twenty-Two:
Not much to say tonight; mostly to myself today, reading and so forth.
I used one of my Lush bath bombs tonight, the one with the sunflower petals and citrus and such in it that's supposed to wake you up (I was feeling decidedly unawake). I was sitting in the bath playing with the soaked petals, picked up the centre bit and idly shredded it, spilling the little things that would become sunflower seeds into the water.
It felt like I'd wasted food. I had to get out of the bath shortly after.

I do like the bath bombs, though. They explode nice. *g*
