the_rckI want to get my book logging posted here before the end of the year. The comics/graphic novels are going to be challenging because, although I was pretty good about recording titles, I didn't write anything about most of them when I recorded them. I'm going to have to look them up and see if anything about the blurbs rings a bell.
I've got 2300 words on the story that's due on the 31st. That means I added slightly more than 1K words over the weekend. I'm hoping for another 1K or even 2K today if my hands hold up.
I'm looking over the prompts for the story due on the 3rd. I could write any of the prompts and have more than one idea for each, so I may need to pick one with a random number generator and see what I can do with it. I don't want to start writing until after I finish the other story, but I can start ideas stewing in the back of my brain.
Cordelia's planning to spend this afternoon visiting a friend who wants to do some baking and hang out. Scott has to work. We're expecting him to have to work 12 hour days a couple of times this week because he called in last Friday. He may also have to work one or both weekend days to cover the factory being closed Christmas Eve/Day and New Year's Eve/Day. 96 hours of missed production is a lot, after all.
Today's non-writing to-do list:
Started:
Laundry (load one is in the wash)
Cook porridge for Christmas morning (in the Instant Pot with 20 minutes to go)
Finish Overdrive audiobook that expires tomorrow (24 hours remaining on loan; 4 hours remaining on book)
Not yet begun:
Change sheets (maybe too ambitious)
Wrap Scott's presents (make Cordelia do this)
Bake 2 sets of bars (maybe too ambitious. One today and one on Christmas Day?)
Take a walk (it's 50F right now; this may be my last chance for months)
Watch the library DVD that's due on Sunday
I should be able to get the laundry into the dryer before Scott leaves for work. The porridge will also be done by then if the pressure bleeds off the way it should (it didn't last year, so I'm not sure it will this year). If both are done, I'll have him drop me off when he drops Cordelia off. There's a park out near where she'll be that has portals I haven't hacked before, and there's a bus every half hour if I don't want to walk back.
