On Getting Stuff Done

Part of this morning's labors has consisted of working out a solution with a business partner about what to do with an order form that someone has apparently been hoarding for five years, until, I guess, they had enough money; then mailing the order form and the check to a PO Box that's this close to Very Dead Happily, our business partner can fill the order, so the customer's (multiply) lucky. This time.

In the spirit of Getting Things Done, I started the laundry, renewed my Tracfone for a year and bought a pair of shoes that I hope to ghod will satisfy the inserts to which I have lately fallen heir. Considering the double whammy on the credit card, I'm thinking I'm not going to be placing that order at Sock Dreams. Sigh. I regret the stripey socks, and the star socks, too. Maybe another time.

Speaking of hits to the credit card, today's post brought me From Dead to Worse from Charlaine Harris; Rachel Caine's newest, Undone; and The Kimono and the Geisha-Diva Ichimaru by Barry Till, Michiko Warkentyne and Judith Pratt.

I don't know when I thought I'd have time to read these, but I'm happy to have them in the TBR pile. I'm going to have some tough choices to make after I finish Jim Morrow's Shambling Toward Hiroshima, which is being a huge amount of fun, even if I can only read a page or six a day.

In and around all this Saturday excitement, I've been working out the next moves in Mouse and Dragon. I had to go back through a couple chapters to straighten out a minor, but irritating, kink, and now I think I'm ready to go forward. Mmmmm, norbears.

Below, a new and improved word-count bar, just so we're all on the same page.
