Hmm. I can't say exactly how much I got done today, since it was in scattershot places, but it was somewhere in the neighborhood of 2000-2500 words, so: good times. I'm actually feeling really wiped out this week, which either means that I'm fighting off some kind of incipient cold or it's a hormonal thing--I have tons of laundry to do and trash to ( Read more... )

To be honest, I had wondered why Crippen would poison and mutilate his wife.

From the Three Minute Hamlet:
Then Hamlet's mommy drank the wine and as her face turned blue,
Hamlet said, "I think this king's a baddie through and through."
"Incestuous, murderous, damned Dane," he said, to be precise,
Then made up for hesitating once, by killing Claudius twice.
He stabbed him with his knife and forced the wine between his lips
He said, "The rest is silence," and he cashed in all his chips.
They fired a volley over him that shook the topmost rafter,
And Fortinbras, knee deep in Danes, lived happily ever after.

That Bale thing is hilarious. I love the Batman Begins bit.

I'm excited as hell about Black Dossier, but man that preview is crappily formated. Horrid flash viewer and instead of actually zooming in so you can read the tiny text bubbles it give you a pixelated "magnifying glass" view instead. Bleh.

"So is it almost finished?"

Gaaaaah! Why do they do this? I'm in a revision marathon myself, and I can't tell you how often I've had to answer this question in the past month. They mean well, but...I keep wanting to ask, "So, CEO yet?" "So, pregnant yet?" "So, lost 20 lbs. yet?" and so forth, as appropriate.

Here, this linkspam will make your jaw drop.

NYC bride is suing her wedding florist for $400K. Why? Because... the hydrangeas were the wrong color. Well, she says they were wilted, too. And in dirty vases without water.

She's really reaching here, isn't she? Jebus. Why can't she just demand a refund like a normal pers--oh. She's a lawyer.

NEVER MIND.
