ksmith: (rs_david)
Deadline still aten't dead

Need the weekend. Asked for the weekend. Got the weekend.

Wound up dumping way more old material that I thought I would. Been working since early Thursday morning--all my all-nighters since college have been book-related. Go figure.

Figured there was no way I could write 25K new words in 5 hours, not even if I channeled Jay Lake. Even the three-day weekend will be a stretch, but brain is in overdrive, so I should be able to do it. Have to.

One problem with all-nighters is that they screw up my meal schedule. I find myself craving pot roast at 930 in the morning. Found some leftovers in the deep freeze, and have them heating slowly. Should be able to stretch it to at least 11am.

I think my neighbors are concerned as to my whereabouts. Or maybe they think I'm sick since I haven't emerged for several days. We got an inch or so of snow y'day, in addition to the inch or so already on the ground. I was planning to shovel over the weekend, but y'day afternoon what should I hear but the roar of a snowblower. Neighbor did my front sidewalk and driveway. Need to bake cookies next week, methinks.
