Remember that tomorrow is More Joy Day!
I'm so glad to be in decent shape for my pair of deadlines tomorrow (if not as on top of things as I wish I were); US politics continue to have me in a general state of distress and anxiety, and I imagine tomorrow's going to be hellish in terms of focus, given everything ( Read more... )

I suppose the odds that I was going to only post one batch of US-election linkspam were vanishing small, all things considered. But I'll try to keep political stuff mostly under cut(s), and I really want to get back to talking about other stuff. Again, feel free to keep tabs on

This first link isn't technically about the election, but it's definitely relevant. Via

I'm running on (at best) three hours of sleep after constantly refreshing Twitter on my phone through the night. (And it's gonna be a long day at Casual Job. Marvelous timing ( Read more... )

The CBC is projecting a significant Liberal majority, so I feel like I can start thinking about going to bed. The NDP have been hit hard by this, and that, in and of itself, is really not good, IMO. (If largely self-inflicted, from my understanding of their campaign, as well as presumably due to strategic voting--can we PLEASE get rid of the "first ( Read more... )

--I'm giving myself the day off, after turning in a Seven Seas script yesterday and a rush job for VIZ right before. So naturally (?), I started the day by dragging myself out of bed a couple hours earlier than usual to go get blood drawn for tests at my GP's office (which only happens there Thursday between 8-10 AM, and costs a bit, but the places ( Read more... )

--Ginny has A Significant Thing happening tomorrow, should anyone wish to think good thoughts for her.

--We seem to have a lot of rain rolling in as the week progresses. >.< I hope the worst of it passes before the weekend, but the weather will do what it will do.

Hazards of being so far on the east coast that your time zone doesn't even exist below the Canada/US border: I really need to get to bed, but I also want to see the US election results. (Although I don't have the faintest idea how long it'll be until they're official.) My Twitter feed is making me feel optimistic about it all, at least, so I ( Read more... )

Huh. No wonder I feel like I haven't posted in forever--it's been almost two weeks. ^^; Stuff has happened! Among other things, Ginny's been visiting since Friday (by which I mean 2 AM on Saturday, since her flight went through Ottawa, where there were bad thunderstorms. >.<), so I opted not to work at Casual Job this week. (I was offered four ( Read more... )

This is not a cheap week. Without even touching on all the social stuff I've been doing, last night I ordered a small heap of manga and this morning I've ordered more of my favorite tea and registered for a distance ed. copy-editing course. Given the state of the manga industry, expanding what I can do as a freelancer seems like a reasonable course ( Read more... )
