Now, where was I?
Friday, December 2nd, 2005 12:11 pmLet me tell you, there's some buyin' going on over the phone lines this season....

kinzel sprung Patia from the vet's on Wednesday, and she went back in for yet another checkup this morning at o-groan-early. Good news: her temperature remains normal. Bad news: she was -- again! -- dehydrated, and we didn't actually see her eat anything but a mite of baby food off kinzel's finger in the day she was home. She'd also, not surprisingly, I guess, lost a thought more weight. We've come away with an elixir of Vitamin B, a pill supposed to increase appetite and another appointment for a check-up, on Monday coming. Either the B or the pill is already acting; she's eaten two helpings of baby food since coming home, off the plate, all by herself. We may pull her through yet, but the going's slow.
Somewhen since the last time I posted, Reggie came and fixed the washing machine. And there was much rejoicing.
Dulsey continues with her plans for World Domination, though her efforts are impeded by underfunding and a certain lack of rigor on the part of Staff.
kinzel is still working to resolve various Issues connected his father's death, all of which is immensely tedious and time-consuming, and which leaves not very much energy for other tasks that need done.
I haven't accomplished any new words, though I hope for better today, after I've gone through the recipient list for Necessary Evils and resolve a bunch of possibly duplicate orders. On the other hand, the galleys for Crystal Dragon have been fine-toothed and returned to the publisher, which must count for something.
It's been raining, and all the snow -- what I had foolishly hoped would be our base snow for the season -- has melted. All the bodies of water in these parts are full to overflow, though I see that the flood watch for the Kennebec has been canceled; the flow at Skowhegan at 4 a.m. a paltry 33273 cfs. Flood stage is 35000 cfs.
I've finished reading Rachel Caine's Windfall, which was smart, enjoyable and just what a tired phone jockey needed. Highly recommended.
I'm officially Tired; there's lots to do today, so I'd better get with the program.
