    Daily: Early Edition
    Scene 131/184
    Ending Word Count: 491

    I woke up early (for me, anyway) and decided to get my writing done before work so I can go and hang out with my friends in good conscience. Today's job was weaving in the character Meti, who is a late edition, to the scene. Which has the salutary effect of putting some CONFLICT in it, yay!

    Jecine's POV today; she adjusts the armor and gets ready and goes down to face a duel wearing Morjay's armor. I put Temsyn in the scene and had Jecine imagine she is going to fighting for her because in that long walk to the ring, it's easier to risk her life for a person than an ideal.

    Bad Dream
    Not quite a nightmare but really? Close enough for gov't work.

    And I have to leave for work in 26 minutes. Bleargh.

    and school
    So I signed up for classes. Or rather, class. Since I'd waited so long (until I got paid) a lot of my choices were gone. But I got into Sculpting 1 (which hadn't been on my radar but was OPEN) and my teacher from last semester, which I had to drop due to my TMJ, said that even though the class is closed, I can take it.

    So it's gonna be an all-art semester. Which I think is a good thing. (And hey, it IS my major.)

    Fighting to keep my head above water.
    I'm not depressed, really; I'm just burned out. (My friend Ceece says that the government's finally recognized Caregiver Burn-Out as a real issue.) I haven't had the energy for much more than the basics; go to work, take Grandmommie to her appointments, lather, rinse, repeat.

    I haven't been doing much editing. It's just too hard to get up and do it, or force myself after work. But I'm hoping if I only expect myself to edit one single scene a day, I'll manage to make myself do it.

    I'm accomplishing nothing now; what have I got to lose?

    So I edited a scene. Just my good luck, it was one of my favorites, where Morjay thinks he's going to get laid, but Jecine drugs him. So it was even a bit enjoyable, but I've got no energy for another one.

    I'm gonna put my feet up and veg and go to sleep. Cuz I gotta get up in the morning and do it all over again.

    Stupid Anxiety Attack
    With everything else that's been going on, I really (really really really) didn't need that.

    *sigh*

    While distracting myself from how much editing I didn't get done this weekend (*rolleyes*) I came across [info]dwqueerlygen, which is about the stuff that queer characters do when they're not having sex, thinking about having sex, wishing they had someone to have sex with, etc.

    Considering that Blade in the Dark is about a bisexual woman, and there are a lot of queer characters in my other stories, it was interesting stuff.

    Okay, now that the calm-down meds have taken effect, I'm going to go back to pretending to edit. Or something.

    Happy 4th of July,
    to everybody who celebrates it, otherwise, happy Saturday! :D

    It's gonna be a low-key one for me, I think; I'm working toward independence from this round of edits of Blade in the Dark. I'm hoping to get through 20 scenes, minimum, today. Though I may go out later to Blow Stuff Up with Ceece and Bruce.

    Just got home from work. Which was mostly painless, except for the part where I had to not laugh in the face of the customer who was buying Glenn Beck's Common Sense but had never even HEARD OF the original by Thomas Paine. History fail, dude.

    Is it just me, or does everyone associate "parley" inextricably with Pirates of the Caribbean?

    Yay Conflict!
    (At least, in the fictional sense.)

    I managed to give a 179-word scene some coherence and conflict and purposefulness, and 213 more words in the process.

    Still Alive
    It's been a not-fun ... few weeks? Month?

    I've been sick for what seems like forever, first a cold, then strep throat, and now? I got sent home from Cermics because I couldn't just coughing. Dust aggravating my lungs, I guess. But not-fun.

    For a couple weeks I was off my meds. I was on my last refill, so the pharmacy was supposed to call my doc to authorize more. But when I went in to check, they didn't have any record at all. At that point I was down to only a few, but I figured they'd be able to do it by Monday, so I'd only miss one dose.

    Aaaaand, Monday rolls around and there's a message from the pharmacy that my refill had been denied. So I call the doctor's office, but there's no answer. When I finally get through, it's another doctor entirely. The woman tells me that my doc has left her practice and given all her files to the new doctor. And of course, the new doc can't approve the refill until she sees me, but because I'm a) working and b) taking Grandmommie to her appointments, so I couldn't get in until over a week later.

    So yeah.

    I Fought the Germs and the Germs Won
    I've got the cold/flu/thingie of doom that's been going around at work. Slept for a few hours after work, but now I'm awake, but feeling like crud. Still. So I'm gonna see if I can get back to sleep, once the advil and sudafed kick in.
