The whiny story of slogging through writing my first novel.

AHHHHHHHH!

I'm going bug shit crazy around here! What happened to the nice quiet days?

!!!

Today I'll get to go upstairs, and hopefully it'll be quiet. Jesus!

Speaking of which, I had dinner last night in a church banquet hall with Birdie and the Monroe County Master Gardeners, of which she is one. She got her bronze badge last night, which was cool, and she insisted that I work on my paper (due in four hours) during the flower arranging demonstration. (That was excellent. The woman is IU faculty, so she lectures well, and does beautiful arrangements.) I got most of it done, and there were cookies near my table every time I faltered and needed a pick-me-up. ;-)

Today in 296 I will have time to work on chapter 9 instead of frantically trying to finish the paper.

If I live that long.

[later]

Well sure nuff, I got upstairs into the quiet, finished my paper and started typing the notes for chapter nine - only I ended up writing rather than note taking, and yet AGAIN, it took a pleasant spin away from the more mundane path I had foreseen. Not a huge difference, but more interesting to read than what I had been about to write.

Yea! More words!

Yay, indeed -- and yeah, good to hear you finished your paper *and* got some writing done. Hooray for you!
