Cleaned the smaller bathroom early today, couldn't stay in bed, much as I wanted to. Wrote over 600 words for this new story last night and have typed them up and saved that draft. Called the prof that I've been emailing and who never got back to me. Now I just need to focus and work of Guardian. My right wrist hurts from leaning it on the wooden ( Read more... )

Feeds on itself--something (usually good) prompts you to act like a dork, you act like a dork, whihc makes good thing even better, whihc improves your mood. Or so I have been observing as I dip into my own foray of dorkitude. (Oh yeah, I looked it up. Dorkitude, geekdom, and nerdhood ( Read more... )

I was thinking of this few days ago, no particular reason ( Read more... )

Blargh. Now I'm tired. I paused in my writing and went job searching. Very disheartening to see so many positions that I might like to try but which require skills or experience I don't have ( Read more... )

Had lots of fun with Cass and Megan last night. Went the pool (and actually went in ~gasp~), saw The Covenant, agreed whole-heartedly that is was awesomely lame ("want to be my wee-otch," oh yes, he said it), had bbq chicken at one of the many nearby korean bbqs, hung out and chatted with Cass, hijacked Megan, bought a cappuccino and hung out with ( Read more... )
