Things on My Mind
The Tea Party: Yikes. These people are scary and stupid and if they get elected into government this country will turn into Idiocracy
. If you haven't seen the movie - please do. (It's got electrolytes! It's what plants crave!)Decorating the front stoop for Halloween. I'm a little late this year. Mr. Bones and Sparky the Jack-O-Lantern are patiently down in the laundry room waiting to be brought up (along with all my other snazzy Halloween decorations). The Dentist. I'm having problems with a molar. So my husband is making me an appointment (he doesn't think I'll take care of it before next month's vacation). Vacation - I'm actually taking off the second half of November. I have mixed feelings about this. I need the vacation and it will be fun to get the hell out of dodge and visit his family, but this also means traveling across the country with the laptop (concerned about theft and damage) and spending half my Nano time writing in stolen moments on the go. It also means leaving the cats for two weeks and while my SiL and nephew will be watching them, I just know they're going to shit on the carpet. Ugh. Edits on NGD - the entire ending needs to be re-written. My editor said it's too rushed and I'm not so sure I feel it's as realistic as it could be. Hmm. But the story needs to get done and I'm on a tight deadline. It needs to be done by this weekend! Religion - Some zealot left their religious literature taped on our front security door. I really wish they wouldn't waste the paper or my time. Not to mention I'm constantly having to clean scotch tape off the front door. I really need a sign that says: "No Solicitation - Religious or Other. If you're here to sell me something it better be your soul."The Office - Not the show, the place I work (the whole day job thing). We spend the last day and half re-decorating with new desks and moving stuff around. That's a huge chore. Now I'm behind on data entry and so on. I will be playing catch-up today and possibly taking work home this weekend to get back on track.
