Today, we do filing

Also, I have a short essay to write.

If Ambition Strikes, I may clean the bathroom *shudder*. Plainly, this stopping everything in order to write is not the Best Plan. OTOH, neither is allowing Everything to interrupt the writing.

The E, R, and T are rubbed out on my keyboard; U, I, H, and G are starting to go. Good thing I'm a touch typist...

I see that Westercon has hit upon the happy plan of combining itself with the 2010 NASFiC -- less than a month out from the vote -- in a self-described stealth/sprint bid. Too bad, I've already voted.

Another beautiful day, and only a 40% chance of rain in the forecast. I think I'll separate the filing along the top of the new bookcases, so I can look out the window while I work. *sigh* I really like my new office.

Edited to add: The auction for the Agent of Change manuscript papers is going great guns. Have a look, here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320394084053&viewitem=&salenotsupported

Pretty day

Man, we should've gone to the ocean today. Maybe I can hijack Steve tomorrow; throw him over my shoulder while he's asleep, sneak him into the Subaru, and blast on down south. It's a plan. Not a good plan, mind you, but a plan.

In another news, we haz mail. The Federal Gummint details my retirement benefits *insert hollow laughter* and! an envelope from our agent, which was opened with much excitement. . .to discover, not a royalty check (*sigh*), but letters indicating that Ace has Officially Reverted the mass market rights to the authors. OK; that counts as good news.

The filing is . . .not done. However! I can see the counter in the kitchen. Yes, I'd rather clean off the kitchen counter top than file. Now I can sleep easy, knowing that there are no coupons that expired in May 2008 lurking in wait.

Our neighbor is mowing his lawn, an event that I can hear, but not see, thanks to the trees between his lawn and ours.

...back to work.

The filing is done. The bathroom floor is drying. Yes, I am made of Awesome.

...of course, I still have the essay to write. And the dishes to wash. Hmmm... *looks in direction of kitchen*
