Glass Half Full - Of Words
Nov. 8th, 2008 06:39 pmSo, I hit halfway today! WOOT!
AND...I listened to a Jimmy Buffett concert on Radio Margaritaville (he does broadcast them all live for free, you know) and got to hear Jimmy dedicate another Last Mango In Paris to Captain Tony, which made my night. I actually went out to the kitchen and found the last of my true Jamaican Rum Cream and lifted a toast to the old men...yep, both of them. Jimmy and Tony. (Here's hoping that Jimmy doesn't join the Captain for a good long time, though.) My favorite bit from Jimmy tonight was in the intro to said song, describing the old man himself:
"Cannonization? Maybe not. But cool? HELL YEAH!"
And that's a wrap.

Date: Nov. 10th, 2008 08:00 pm (UTC)I had a fight with the hubby last week, so I did not write SHIT for the last five days.
....but the plotbunnies are lurking...and I sense I will be held hostage this week until there is copious amounts of words being leaked onto the page....

Damn men.

Date: Nov. 11th, 2008 07:44 pm (UTC)*hands you the booze* That's what I needed to get me through the weekend. After almost 15 years of marriage, you'd think we'd have all this drama and angst out of the way, y'know? *sigh* Nothing like a housefull of men to bring out the Nasty Bitch. GRRR.
My lazy ass did not get out of bed this morning, 'cause frankly I was just exhausted. BUT! There shall be writing this evening and tomorrow before work. I seem to be doing my best work in the mornings. I must just be dreaming something inspiring I guess! (Methinks it would be Flanigan-shaped. Hee.)
*SMOOCH* Have a good evening!

Anyway...booze is appreciated. I'm ten years in...sigh...but all is well. I didn't write a word on my NaNo yesterday, if that makes you feel better...I wrote fic instead.
Mornings work best for me, too. Both ends of them.

Date: Nov. 12th, 2008 02:26 pm (UTC)Hmmm...you're quite a bit ahead of me, dear. I'm around 16K at the moment, courtesy of four people who just would not leave me alone this morning. But they're all out of my house this evening, so I'm hoping to make that up. *crosses fingers and prays for peace in the household*
Here's to marriage...and all it's insanity. *holds up the bottle* Ooops, I think I drank it all. *eyes it unhappily*

Date: Nov. 12th, 2008 02:42 pm (UTC)I was stuck on my NaNo for a day or two-just sick of it and no really inspired way to get from point A to point B, so I wrote several Firefly fics instead. I'd like to edit and post them today, but I have to get a few K words in first, so I'm disconnecting my internetz now. Later!
