I know, I know. It's been more than a month again, I'm terrible. But I can blame the lad! Since his return from overseas, he's kept me thoroughly distracted - mostly in that way you're thinking, yes - and it's been just lovely.
But there are a few other reasons: I'm finally getting in a position to going back to work after several years in suspended animation. What is it about having things to do that makes you want to write more, even if you have no time? I've been rushing around, getting information together and attending interviews and stuff. I have an employment agency working for me to find some gullible employer who doesn't object to hiring on someone with what essentially amounts to a disability doing a lot of the legwork, but still... and all the time, I have things happening in my head to write up.
Unfortunately, it hasn't all been pilots, but there is some of that - a new chapter in Contraventions is underway. FF.net browsers may find it; due to my guilty conscience, I'm not posting WIPs here anymore.
At any rate, not dead. Just a little... er... saddle sore? *G* and very happy. Family going north again this weekend, which means the boy and I will have the house to ourselves. I do not foresee my aches fading in the near future.
In other news, might I offer advice to all well-meaning siblings and daughters? Never EVER play peacemaker between your angry paranoid brother and your angry paranoid mother. I feel like the rope in a game of tug-o-war. You'd think that as the youngest, I'd be the least mature in this family... but it doesn't always seem so.
