07:06 2 rejections in 3 days. I quit. Well, not really, but still… ♫ blip.fm/~dm6m #
10:17 To show I’m not quitting, I wrote 1.5 pgs. of draft & 1/2 pg. of notes this morning. And I hate just about every word. #
10:26 Why the FUCK can’t I remember my voice mail password??? #
10:46 Must’ve been a technical glitch, because I DID remember it and it wasn’t working at first. Then it did. #
11:57 Next market, next market… #
12:30 2nd thoughts about sending the last reject back out. Self-doubt or do I have actual reasons? #
15:10 No writing at lunch. Retreated into the skoolbooks, instead. #
15:16 And now, my job just got a whole lot harder today… #
16:53 When it rains at work, it pours. ♫ blip.fm/~dtnn #

08:25 Bent, but didn’t break, the No Writing on Skool Days rule this morning. I just needed a title. #
12:10 Looks like it’ll be a light week for school, so screw the No Writing on Skool Days rule. At least until I get the midterm back on Thurs… #
13:33 Forgot how badly new shoes can hurt the feet. This is what I get for wearing sandals all the time like a good townie. #
14:45 Coworker thinks the office looks like a big rave: "Drugs, crazy behavior, and no one’s drinking enough water." #
15:25 Was a good samaritan with someone’s 4GB flash drive. And I could’ve used a 4GB flash drive, too. #
18:08 Screw it. I’m blowing off schoolwork and writing tonight. #
18:16 That is, I’m writing, rather than doing schoolwork! Christ, do I even know how to write?? #
20:44 Wrote one whole page! #
21:10 Another rejection email. I’ll send the thing back out tomorrow. #
21:48 Poor Brokaw…they really don’t give a crap about what he says, do they? #

07:14 No tests, no MS backlog. Feels great!! ♫ blip.fm/~cyrk #
07:18 Now, on to the next piece…whatever that is. #
10:21 1.5 handwritten pages of new stuff this morning, plus a page of notes!! Of course, it wasn’t on the piece I had planned, but still. #
12:19 Student loans are magically in deferment?? Do I want to keep them there? #
14:19 Trying not to judge the 1/2 page I wrote at lunch as total shit. It’s at least as good as the 1.5 pgs. of shit I wrote this morning! 😉 #
16:19 Clowns and jokers–appropos for work today. ♫ blip.fm/~d4go #
18:22 Because the hell at work today, I probably won’t be writing tonight. Well, maybe 1/2 a page, we’ll see. #
20:21 Damn…I *knew* there was an editing project I’d forgotten about! Guess that, like my new piece, will have to wait until Friday. #

08:36 Today’s Grab-the-World-By-the-Shorthairs Theme: ♫ blip.fm/~cq69 #
09:31 Though, after editing and submitting 2 stories while studying for a midterm, maybe I need to leave the world’s shorthairs alone for a bit. #
18:30 Ah, nothing like a one-day rejection. #
20:08 And, the story’s already out to the next market. #

07:41 Can’t remember the last time I was so grateful for a Saturday morning. ♫ blip.fm/~ci1r #
14:18 Am I…am I actually done editing the latest MS?? #
16:16 Did some more edits, to clean the thing up a little more. Down to 3100 words. Looks ready to submit, to me! #
16:17 Now for some food and a STAR TREK 2.0 rerun on TV. I deserve, don’t you think? #
17:06 zomg! DOCTOR WHO Series 4 screenplays!! www.thewriterstale.com/scr.html #
18:14 MS is done (as much as it’s gonna get) and submitted! Knock on wood… #
21:16 WTF? I rented BATMAN:GOTHAM KNIGHT last week and tonight they show it on the fucking Cartoon Network! Bad timing. Story of my life. #

07:23 Needs a little bit o’ _____ to relax my mind. ♫ blip.fm/~c5v5 #
11:16 Saw his life flash before his eyes on the bus this morning–twice!! #
11:26 Revised new MS this morning. It’s only 3500 words, so I just have to worry about it not sucking. #
14:52 Every cell in my body screams for caffeine! #
15:15 Trying to edit the MS on the d/l at work, but I just don’t have the headspace. #
16:11 It can only get easier from here… ♫ blip.fm/~cc6f #

06:39 Work+class+midterm=13-hour day today. ♫ blip.fm/~bsom #
09:21 I’m either adequately prepared, or I’ve massively underestimated how hard this midterm’s gonna be ;). #
12:08 Needlessly fell off the red-eye wagon this morning. #
12:15 After this mid-term, I gotta do something about these numbers: tinyurl.com/3wwbzp #
15:17 Doesn’t look like I’ll be able to sneak in any last-minute studying at work :(. #
16:56 Didn’t plan my dinner options very well… #
22:32 Figuring I did fair to middlin’ on the midterm. #
22:37 Got a book and other cool swag in the mail today from Small Beer Press, www.lcrw.net/ #

07:45 Day 2 off work. Skool…? 😉 #
07:50 Eh, who cares if I infect my classmates? They’re young; they’ll be fine. ♫ blip.fm/~b4dj #
18:19 Took a 3-hour nap. Can I feel better, now?? #
19:06 Violating the No Writing on Skool Nites rule. Sue me. #
20:25 Another story submitted! Now to cram for the midterm. Priorities, eh? #

07:12 Not feeling 100%, but probably not bad enough to stay home. #
10:27 Finished the last re-read. Will print the MS and send it out tonight! And now I’m spent. Will probably take a 1/2 day off today. #
12:45 Time to go home, I think. ♫ blip.fm/~avu7 #
14:17 At home, now. Body wants to rest. The mind doesn’t. ♫ blip.fm/~ax0m #
15:33 Will email the story out after a long, long nap. #
