...I still feel like I left my oomph in my other pants, but as long as the book is cooperating and cheerful to be written, by God I'm going to write it! Today and yesterday are non-gym days (tomorrow, weights) and I'm trying to rest a little. One may find that one tends to work too hard, or so one's friends may tell one.
Anyway, I might get chapter two done today, because it's all in my head. And then I will be halfway to the fifty pages I need for the proposal. Then I have to
make up out of whole cloth write a synopsis
that will bear absolutely no resemblance to the eventual finished book, trying to avoid the words "and then a miracle occurs" at any point, and I will have done the thing that must be done by mid-January, and I can laze about until the next time the night shift brain squirrels get uppity, or a deadline looms, whichever comes first.
But for right now I'm going to stick my feet into a cup of coffee until my toes warm up, and maybe eat something (all this maintenance!)
Right.
Food.
This is so complicated.
.
Or Cheesecake!
It's better than it sounds.
Heh.
Heh.
Jay-zeus, you've just reminded me of the amount of leftovers I had from just that starter in Austin! Haha.
Next time, I say what we do is buddy up, and split a starter and entree between each two people.
In fact, there's some talk of at least an evening in NYC beforehand (which I'll definately be doing, coming all the way from UK - might spend a few days there first). I'm sure there'll be eating to be had there!
