Okay, in addition to drafting last month’s story and getting my desk set up, I contacted a writer friend and scheduled sprints again. And I *just* scheduled a reading with my beta for the draft. All before I finished my coffee. I usually hand over 12 or 16 drafts at a clip, because Chelsea stories […]
So yesterday, I thought my writing blog. I planned it out. And then mentally said to myself, “Good job!”, and promptly forget to actually type any of it out. ANYWAY, I need to edit that next Chelsea story and then check my notes about the next one. See I actually do plan these stories, years […]
I got next month’s story drafted! Yes, it needs more eyes on it, and some serious editing, but the draft is done! This, of course, means I have to worry about March’s story now…
No, I did not do everything on my to-do list yesterday. I was tired and my back pooped out before I could finish my closet.But I did get my desk more or less set up. Still some stuff to work on for maximum comfort, but I can sit down and write easily now.I may even […]
Okay, yes, I am being dramatic here. But my husband had the computer chair set up on Saturday night for me. I still laid in bed and gamed… until literally 4 am.So I was useless yesterday for doing much more than sitting in my new chair and saying, “Comfy.” Surviving Mars is sooo good, y’all. […]
I have one last day of long sitting, but it’s on Tuesday. (I work Tuesday thru Saturday). Tomorrow is a cataloging day, and cataloging can involve a lot of sitting, but there’s also a lot of walking and moving around. Even better it wasn’t freezing today, so existing wasn’t inherently painful. Oh! And the death […]
I just had another full day at work, and I’m not mad about it, but it’s…brain drain and back drain.I can’t focus and my back hurts from sitting in one position for too long, which means I *really* can’t focus. For the sake of honesty, I will likely be a mess tomorrow night too. I […]
Another busy day at the museum, and on top of it, I have a nasty cough. I’m not sick, it’s me acclimating to the desert winter. Last year, was super wet for around here, and I had no problems. This year is a more typical year and I am so dry that my body is […]
Of course, my first day back to writing and I swamped by outside forces. My job is fun and I adore it, but it’s also slow. However, today, of course, I had a ton of running around to do, followed by inventory, and month end reports, etc, etc. And I have stuff to do tonight, […]
This was, originally, a writing blog. By which I mean, to train myself to write, to practice and practice and practice, and frankly, just to talk about my work, I had a daily ritual of writing a blog post. It traveled from Tumblr to here, and I did it for years. Just something every day.And […]
