In which the day is long and the night, so short
Thursday, October 1st, 2009 07:00 pmToday, electronics large and small rose up against me. Yes, I turned tail and ran. Also? I Really Did Know What I was doing when I asked for an "extra" computer to hook the scanner up with. No, really -- justasecretary or not; I did know. And the whole "But! we would have to maintain it!" issue? So completely bogus.
Tomorrow is Friday. With luck and a tailwind, I'll get through the week alive -- and so will the people I work with.
Saturday and Sunday -- blocked out to write "Hidden Resources". I should also pay bills...maybe tomorrow evening.
Don't forget the auction for the paper relevant to the story "Candlelight" -- aka the hardest three hundred bucks two writers ever wrested from a well-meaning publisher. Take a look here.
The trade books manager at the Colby bookstore sent me a copy of the slide they made to advertise the Liaden books (below), which is now in rotation on the screen behind the checkout counter. Pretty cool, huh?
