1. I wrote 1,000 decent words today. w00t.
2. Double Stuf is the only way to eat Oreos.
3. I want it to keep snowing overnight so I won’t have to go into the office tomorrow. Lazy? Me? No!

We got caught in extra traffic on the way to work today (crazy how that can happen when we pull out of our apartment complex, drive 3 miles up that road, and turn into my office building’s parking lot) so I called ahead from the car to tell them I was on my way and […]

Shiloh is following me from room to room like a spaz today, which is really unlike her most of the time. I found the bone she’d been missing for a few days, so it’s her current favorite and she’s carrying it around and flopping down in the dead middle of the room to chew on […]

In that spirit, today is officially an Ironing Day.
You see, sometimes I brew ideas up and toss them together and I start writing, and I realize that […]

We all know I have a singular talent for putting off work, but I’m reaching new depths today. And, of course, I seem to be coming down with some kind of cold/flu thing, which muddles my already sluggish novelesque thoughts.
Pitiful.
Frustrating.
Maybe I need to put the computer away and work on […]

John Scalzi has a post up today about 10 things he’s done that other people probably haven’t, with the invitation to follow suit and post your own list. So here’s mine:
1. Went sledding (on a trash bag) on a de-mined section of the 1986 Sarajevo Olympic ski hills.
2. Attended undergrad classes at […]
