I forgot to post yesterday because I attended a birthday party and fought with my printer (I lost and the printer needs to get to the dealer to be sorted) and otherwise filled my time exceptionally well. I'm caught up on most things, I think. I've got an hour of various things to do and an hour and a half to do them in, which is exceptionally odd. It means that, for the second time in two days and the third time in two weeks, I'm taking time out. The time out is diminishing, though. It was two days and then it was an evening and I do not want to consider what that means for the rest of October.

My surprise of the day was to discover that I've had flu. I worked the way through it and complained the way through it and thought it was me not dealing with life. Then I found out that several people in my vicinity had all the same symptoms and took time out. So I'm going to spend my half hour in bed, then pat myself on the back for taking such very fine care of my health.

I got royalties today, by the way. I like royalties. I never expect them and am always happy when they tuck themselves neatly into my bank account. I'm especially happy because this lot was all for Ms Cellophane and it was more than last time, which means more people have read it. I hope they enjoyed it.
