FInished the second track of the book today.  Excited about the possibilities of this one.  A hundred pages in.  Hoping I can keep it going strong in the coming weeks.  It's going to be tough because I haven't been able to make my bills very well lately.

Here's the rundown of the week so far.

Saturday- stood out in the bitter cold during the first ( Read more... )

Attention employees and management:

It occurred to me that I don’t smoke, and that the majority of my coworkers do.  One of those little things that started to bother me was the incessant smoke breaks, the kind of breaks I’m not privy to.

I did some math.

2 smoke breaks a day (a truly generous number)

Multiplied by 5 days a week

What's more frustrating than heading to a bowling alley and knowing that the girl you're dating is fiending for a cigarette, in the one place she usually chain smokes? How about when she gets absolutely loaded for the second time in a few weeks? That's a helluva time, I tell you what.

But there's good news. Everybody had a great time at bowling ( Read more... )

I fell asleep today with my socks on
under purple, under grey, under black
and all the colors of three thirty in the afternoon
I perused music today, system of a down, clutch, nine inch nails,
breathed in Houses of the Holy,
she is the sun, I am the east.
I found dryer sheets in my laundry today,
ankle socks amongst the soccer socks
hair on my ( Read more... )

It's been a while since I've been on here with the purpose of telling the planet about my life.  I don't know that my life is significant enough to warrent note here, but whatev.  For the sake of my own memory, and my own ego, I'd like to record a few things.

Lots of financial trouble right now.  Have been in the red twice now with regards to the ( Read more... )

Pleading has not worked.  And my parents' threats have not worked.  They never carry through on the threats. So when I stayed up last night watching 'Four Brothers', which turned out to be an excellent flick, and my little sister wasn't home, I got upset.

My sister got in last night at least 2 hours after curfew ( Read more... )

I finished my book a couple of days ago.  It's a tainted victory because, yes, it was nearly 400 pages in Microsoft Word (or 109,000 words, which is way different in book form).  Sure, I wrote in just over two months.  And yes, it's probably the most solid piece of work i've ever come up with.

But let's do a little math... 8 ( Read more... )

Nearing the end. Track 11 is the climax. Spurted out another 15 pages. Time to wrap up the book.  Time to move on, after a short break.

Nearing 400 pages. Won't get there, most likely. Ah well. High five.

finished track 10.  very short.  One scene really.  Picking up speed.  Need to get ready for the next book.  Two tracks to go.  Probably won't make it to 400 pages.  Ah well.

Low Five.

Did not figure on finishing this track in one day.  wrote/copy-pasted-edited 18 pages today.  Thinking I could use a break before I start on the next track.  I knew it'd be shorter than the rest but whatev.

High five.  Rock out.
