April 27, 2010 Progress Notes:
"When Your Number Isn't Up"
Words today: 500.
Words total: 5300.
Reason for stopping: Reasonably round number, and I have an early shift at work tomorrow, so I don't want to get too far into it.
Darling du Jour: One shot, two shot, he thought, and closed his eyes. You could maybe stumble it. Maybe jangle the rope before tottering a few steps further, sliding to those white and slender knees—
Mean Things: I finally found out what Jake's problem is. I...well. I'm a bad person and will be promptly going to hell.
Research Roundup: When showers got popular, versus baths.
Books in progress: David Mitchell, The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet.
The glamour: Dayjob, mild errandry of the usual sort.
I have not been blogging a lot. This seems to be symptomatic of spending enough time doing things that by the time I get home, I'm not so inclined to write up what I've been doing. But in case you were wondering, this weekend I went to Scalzi's reading/signing at the Merrill Collection on Friday (and for drinks and snacks afterwards); did a scavenger hunt with
wistling,
ksumnersmith,
dolphin__girl,
thesandtiger, and Stephen Kotowych on Saturday, followed by sushi for dinner and pie and tea late into the night; spent Sunday grossly oversleeping, reading, clearing
ideomancer work and finishing said pie; went out for drinks with a friend I haven't seen in a space of years last night; ran errands tonight. Tomorrow is the Coach House Press launch party, and the day after a panel discussion on paranormal fantasy and vampires again at the Merrill, after which I think there will be coffee with a division of The People. And then Jane's Walk and a possible brunch date this weekend, and then we're back into it for the new workweek. I won't even list the things I skipped or didn't make it to.
This is kind of the reason I haven't been blogging a lot. I, ah, appear to have got busy.
The whole social life thing? Decidedly not bad! I enjoy it! But the work/life balance around the Casa, while historically unhealthily into the work side of things, is recalibrating some this month. This is taking a little adjustment.
I will try to be better about the blogging thing. Promise.
