Progress notes for 30 March 2008
Chill:
New words: 1750. There may be a second sitting later tonight, when the gang shows up in chat. The live of the working artist is pretty much ceaseless toil.
Microsoft wordcount: 49844
Manuscript wordcount: 58750
Deadline: May 1
Mammalian assistance: Mebd mugged her catnip banana and beat it brutally
Reason for stopping: quota, needed food badly, caffeine-deprivation headache from failure to stop working long enough to get tea
http://meter.writertopia.com/words=58750&target=100000&mood=3
Darling du jour: he could have had wings, if he wanted them badly enough to put up with the nuisance value
Jury-rigging: arbitrarily closed off an avenue of exploration
There's always one more quirk in the character: Chelsea is now humming the Hawaii 5-O theme...
Today's words Word don't know: hyperoxygenated,
Sustenance: I just walked down and got a Subway meatball grinder. That was kind of exceptionally bland and way too sweet. Why did I think I wanted that?
Mean Things: still more carnivorous plants
Other writing-related work: none
Exercise: walked to Subway. ;-) Should try to yoga later, maybe, though not too much, as today is technically a recovery day.
Miles to Lothlorien: 248.5
Guitar practice: Just about to start
Mail: nomail
