Today's writing victory
I've been happily back at work on my Adelaide Crapsey picture book, and inching forward. I wrote about it the other day, as you may know, in a post entitled "One Step Up and Two Steps Back". (Side-effect of that post is that I've had that Springsteen song in my head for days. I consider this a good thing, actually, because it's a great song.)
Today, I pretty much wiped out two days' work and replaced it with something completely different, and now all things feel right in the world again. (Yes, I have seen Twitter already and know that's not the case, but for this short, happy, post-writing period, all is right in the world. Which may be the best reason for writing of all.)
Now to chug a lot of water so that I can have a less-unpleasant IV infusion this afternoon. I'm starting a new RA medicine. The last one did absolutely nothing to help the RA, though it did give me a fungal infection in my hands and cause dry skin and lots of hair loss, so one cannot say it did nothing. I do not like IVs (or any needles, really, though home injections were way better than this B.S.), so think kind thoughts for me, okay?
