Another rare update...I've been reading LiveJournal a bit more lately, although I hear it's on a real downswing, so I don't know if many other people are even reading posts here... But I've been chatting with a couple of friends who have journals recently, so I figured, what the heck, I'll post an update ( Read more... )

I haven't posted for a while, so I'm grabbing a chance today. :-) There's always more work to do, interviews to transcribe, comics to sort, cards to sort, books to sort, online obligations of various kinds to be met, etc. Of course, Hurricane Ivan added to the work recently. This house is near the top of a hill, so it doesn't really flood here, ( Read more... )

The new dentist I saw yesterday took a look at the tooth that's been hurting so badly for a few weeks now. For the last six or eight months, I've been aware of a little cavity at the back of one tooth. Unfortunately, the dentists I've seen opted to ignore it, since it wasn't hurting or anything. I kind of thought that it'd be better to fill it ( Read more... )

Well, my friends listing kicked back in as soon as I posted an update to my journal...since it's frozen again, I guess I'd better post another update. Another editor has sent me some tapes this week...I've also begun work on the book I'll be editing. I'm swamped! A friend told me, "At least you're not getting complaints." Which I suppose is ( Read more... )

Thank you to Amber and Saskya for welcoming me back. :-) I have a question about LJ...I've been logging on to check my friends' recent entries, but was puzzled when everyone stopped updating their journals a few days ago. That didn't seem likely, but even hitting the refresh button for my friends page didn't bring up any more recent entries. I ( Read more... )

Hello, LJ buddies! Sorry I've been absent for so long. I'm still trying to adjust to being constantly busy. My transcription workload continues apace. In addition, I'll be guest-editing an issue of one of the magazines I'm doing transcriptions for, so that will be additional work, although I'll very much enjoy it, and am thankful for the ( Read more... )

Hi, LJ folks...just checking in again, amid the blur of business and transcription that is now my life. I can't say I'm particularly satisfied with this state of affairs, but it seems to have a self-perpetuating momentum...I do feel an urge to break free of it all, though...(shrug) I hope everybody is doing fine and enjoying the summer. And I ( Read more... )

Yes, I still exist...but I've just been way too busy to keep up with LiveJournal. The enormous amount of transcription work combined with my store being busier than typical this year (which, mind you, is a GOOD thing) has kept me too busy for anything extra. Not to mention from having a life, d'oh! You know, I used to be in the "time but no ( Read more... )

Well, it's been quite a while since I last posted to the journal. I've just been totally swamped. I just finished a rush transcription and have another on the way tomorrow, as well as a semi-rush transcription and another of those in the mail as well. Once I finish those, I have another six tapes of non-rush material. I'm also putting a ( Read more... )

Well, I'm going to be quite busy for the next few weeks...my main editor finally sent me ten tapes he needs transcribed (and yay, he's found 100-minute tapes somewhere...grrr...), and one of my other editors really wanted me to do a transcription for him, so I have three more tapes on the way. Meanwhile, a national magazine has expressed an ( Read more... )
