Where to begin today? It's after one here so I realize I'm getting a late start, but it's my journal and I'll faff around if I want to.
I decided not to wait until July to cancel my website. I don't get a refund for what I already paid for, but it's like I've lifted a failure off my tally sheet. I never update it and now I can't so it's no longer a failure to update. Go me! I'm going to come up with another website name and maybe use it for book reviews I'm not reviewing for NRR. I went over to Net Galley's site and anyone can get their books so long as they actually review them or give the publisher a reason why. Who knew? Still, I like NRR and I like having a broader community to get my feet wet. It's definitely been a steep learning curve.
I've thrown - shit. I went back to elaborate on my website and forgot why I started that sentence.
Oh yeah - I've thrown off the yoke of (most)Zynga games again. I think if I just do Farmville I'll be okay. It's all the other ones that make you beg for twenty pieces of fifteen different imaginary things that get me frustrated and waste all my time. Farmville, you go, plant, harvest, and you're done until you get back to it.
I like Tutti Fruitti Jelly Bellies. Isn't Easter Candy Amaaaazing!
I drive my kids crazy saying Amaaaazing! whenever I get the opportunity. Watch Archer. You'll understand.
I'm tweeting on Twitter again (
kimsnarks). I don't know why I ever stopped. More fun than you can shake two sticks at.
I looked and I've been writing my "practice" novel for four years. Four. Years. It has six Word files now because - and not many are aware of this - Word documents have a maximum character count. Yeah. It takes me months to read it from the beginning to see how far I've come in my writing. No, you will never be allowed to read it. Not even when I'm dead.
I haven't been writing lately. Except short two paragraph reviews. Those I've been writing. And writing here that one time (and this one time). And Twitter, but that's it.
I have an excellent story idea I'm afraid to write. I have my Nano which could be pretty good if I cut out all the OOC pron that I put in to get my word count up fast (again, why does sex write faster?)
In general I'm doing pretty good. Specifics is where I get tripped up. Not enough money, too much fat, not enough exercise, no writing, allergi-palooza every March/April/May. Still, I'm pushing through. There's either light at the end of the tunnel or a ventilation shaft up ahead I can catch my breath at. I'll get there.
How are you?
