I did it!
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…
Getting started
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 […]
Monday the 1st, the start of greatness
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. […]
Almost there
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 didn’t forget about this.
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 […]
I’m trying, I swear
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
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, […]
Once Upon a Time
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 […]
Chelsea Fight Borers
This is a series of short stories, detailing the adventures of Chelsea Childling. You can start with her origin story or pick something from the index.*** The badly lit hotel room was dirty. Not in the well-used and loved sense, but in the Chelsea-very-much-didn’t-want-to-take-off-her-shoes sense. She sighed and pulled her feet onto the bed. The […]
Chelsea and the Vampire Bats
Twilight brought twinkling lights and absurdly suggestive slogans at the roadside attraction. The place was famous for its risque name, and fudge, and lived up to the touristy promise of the billboards. All of of four stores and bawdy signage; the sheer over-the-top nature of the “town” overloaded Chelsea’s sense of maturity and she giggled as she contemplated buying a t-shirt.
