• 08:32 Not sure if I’ve got the Andromeda Strain or just really bad allergies. Called in today, anyway :(. #
• 08:40 Might even *gasp* write today! Later today. After breakfast and a nap. #
• 11:58 Illness definitely feels more like bad, bad allergies than the Andromeda Strain. If only I could temporarily disconnect my stuffy head. #
• 16:30 I know I’m out of it, but I could swear I’m missing some tweets. As if I could go 5 whole hours without rambling about something or other 🙂 #
• 16:46 Watching SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER on AMC. Hearing Yvonne Elliman’s "If I Can’t Have You" never fails to make me swoon :). #
• 17:02 Yes, it’s a fetish, I’ll admit. You don’t even wanna know what I think of her as Mary Magdelene in JESUS CHRIST… ♫ blip.fm/~369j5 #
• 17:45 Time for another dose of meds, I think. #

• 01:32 Local diner patron, an hour ago: "Drunk people’ll be here in 30-45 minutes." Me and my group: "Yeah, we’re here, now!" #
• 01:33 Home now, struggling to get to bed, preparing for tomorrow’s hangover after 4 pints + a Manhattan. Maybe I do have Irish in me after all :). #
• 07:16 Last nite’s carousing has taken its toll. Andromeda Strain has taken me over. Called in to work and didn’t have to fake anything *cough* :(. #
• 10:35 Listening to my ambient/chillout station on Pandora, trying to figure out what to do with myself during my sickday :(. #
• 10:36 Surprisingly, not half as hungover as I expected. Must’ve been the 1 am diner food :). #
• 12:21 @verybigjen I always thought the ending to BLAKE’S 7 would be a tough act to follow. Definitely took LIFE ON MARS to do it! #
• 14:01 @verybigjen I’m hopeful! Hope being the key word, which is why LoM’s ending beat B7’s, I think. #
• 14:01 @GigiVernon Yikes! Don’t end up sick like me!! #
• 14:08 Asked to be in a local film student’s project this weekend. Am afraid I’m going to be like Gina Bellman’s character in LEVERAGE. #
• 18:48 2.5-hour nap just wasn’t enough. I have, as they say in STAR WARS, a bad feeling about this. #
• 19:20 Steven Millhauser has jumped my reading queue at a coworker’s suggestion. Impressed, so far. tinyurl.com/dnlt2c #
• 22:29 @diablocody Ooh, good for you! I’ve been out of MMA training for 3 years and have lacked the resolve to get back into it. 🙁 #

• 08:17 Whether I get to drink green beer tonight solely depends on the amount of writing I get done between now and then. #
• 08:19 Summary of Sunday’s (fair and just) critique group evisceration of my 830 words of Fail tinyurl.com/d4sfex #
• 11:55 No no no no NO! Do not want 100-wd. intro to a *new* piece. Need to finish the *old* piece. *headdesk* *headdesk* *headdesk* #
• 11:59 *headdesk* I still have that 400-wd intro I coughed up when I should’ve been working on preventing last Sunday’s CritFail 🙁 #
• 12:18 My favorite writers, listed in order, on goodreads (aka my beloved, glorified list manager) tinyurl.com/d3dghc #
• 12:24 Speaking of reading, that’s what I’m about to do outside, in the sun, while eating lunch :). #
• 14:19 Some pr0n really is scripted–who knew? Or is Larry Flynt an auteur? tinyurl.com/3sy23x (via therumpus.net) #
• 16:37 Looking at the miniscule amount of (wrong) words I wrote today and thinking, "That’s enough for green beer tonite!" Sad, sad, sad. #
• 16:48 zomg, I might actually get to leave on time! In the sun!! #

• 07:55 RT @drmabuse: New Podcast! Bat Segundo #273: T.C. Boyle #
• 07:56 2nd thoughts about posting yesterday’s crit group evisceration. Damn, that’s a long list of FAIL. Will suck it up anyway. #
• 08:09 Eh, I’ll post it over lunch. Too much FAIL to look at first thing in the morning :(. #
• 09:46 Working earlier than usual means leaving earlier than usual! I get to enjoy the sun!! #
• 09:47 RT @drmabuse The Sci-Fi Channel to be rebranded into Syfy. [Filed under: "WTF?"] #
• 09:54 RT @mightymur Every time you type "should of," Thor kills a puppy in retribution. #
• 09:54 Quiet day at work so far. Can you tell? #
• 11:29 Tempted by chance to have shrimp w/lobster sauce for lunch today, and seeing as I forgot last nite’s leftovers (of shrimp w/lobster sauce). #
• 13:03 Processing yesterday’s list of critiques outside. Sun is hiding, but the temp is still nice! #
• 13:18 Feh! Had to move indoors ‘cos I forgot I used the netbook before work; battery was low :(. #
• 17:43 So much for leaving early *as scheduled*. Work emergency :(. #

• 08:10 I am *so* screwed for group unless I can haul ass on this damn story! #
• 10:18 RT @GrantaMag Get your "Vitamins" (that is, the Raymond Carver story), online here for free: tinyurl.com/baavmm #
• 10:19 Christ, nothing I’ve written for the past few days (except the new WIP that I’m *not* bringing to group) is remotely readable! RRARRGH! #
• 11:41 Managed to salvage 3/4 of my progress for crit group. (Salvage = make sentences read like coherent English) #
• 18:02 Will post crit group crucifixion tomorrow. Suffice it to say that the FAIL! list was (justifiably) longer than the WIN! list. 🙁 #
• 20:43 Gah! Spaced out on chores & forgot all about #KINGS. Just as well–like I need another show to get hooked on. #
• 20:46 Do I have the stomach for BookTV’s AFTER WORDS with Ann Coulter? Then again, I did just have shrimp w/lobster sauce for dinner. #

• 09:51 Productive morning of breakfast out and grocery-shopping. What to do next, what to do? (As if I didn’t know.) #
• 11:11 Instincts pushed me into a used bookstore while doing more errands. Found 2 Joy Williams short-story collections that I’ve wanted for ages. #
• 15:13 This AM I was scraping frost off the car. Now I’m writing outside in a t-shirt and sunglasses!! #
• 15:29 Okay, maybe I need to put my sweater back on. Still beautiful out here, watching folks milling about. #
• 15:52 Netbook low on power so I had to move indoors. Hoping music by Clannad will help me resolve plot points. #
• 16:34 Isn’t buying 3 used books enough? Don’t I have enough reading backlog? Do I need to take out a library book, too? #
• 18:10 Gonna keep my eye out for this film tinyurl.com/bwfyvg//www.google.com/reader/view/user%2F02123373233520796283%2Flabel%2Fdailies& … #
• 18:35 "So close / But so far away" best sums up my readiness for crit group tomorrow. ♫ blip.fm/~2zo1l #

• 08:10 Hardly got any writing done yesterday. Will have to try to get back into the WIP today. Yes, on a skool day. #
• 09:26 Wrote 400 new words–a 1st draft of a *new* story. WTF? How does that happen?? Still have crit group to prep for, too! Arrrgggh! #
• 11:52 Gearing up for walk to skool. Hopefully it’s warmed up a bit since this morning. #
• 13:31 Students heading out for spring break makes for a quieter life. Temporarily ;). #
• 13:40 Gonna spend the rest of my lunch walking in the sun & not berating myself for writing 400 wds of new WIP instead of current WIP. #
• 16:02 I fraking *knew* the quiet was too good to be true, even for the Friday before Spring Break! Fail!! #
• 16:49 So far, potential emergencies have been diffused or redirected, thank Christ! Means I might have the energy to write a bit tonite (b4 #BSG). #
• 19:10 Struggled to stifle a hategasm at work; glad I left when I did. Will try to sublimate the anger into the WIP. #
• 19:35 If I was going to get a writer’s planner, it’d definitely be this one. lcrw.net/wordpress/?p=890 #

• 10:20 All right, this DST fight to get out of bed every morning is getting pretty damn old, pretty damn quick! #
• 11:48 I *so* don’t feel like writing at lunch; almost can’t bear the thought. But can I bear the guilt of not writing? Bleh. #
• 17:28 Listening to podcast of Diablo Cody interview on KCRW’s THE TREATMENT tinyurl.com/bbnb9h #
• 19:21 Must…write…something. Anything. #

• 08:14 Sooo hard to get out of bed when your body still thinks it’s 5:45 am. #
• 08:18 Just remembered a dream last night in which I was holding a $15 bill…as in cash. #
• 08:28 Writing playlist: Chris Botti, the Budos Band. An experiment on the effects of smooth jazz followed by afrofunk on my brain. #
• 09:00 Good news: coming up w/awesome rewrite ideas for current WIP. Bad news: I’m not coming up with any NEW WORDS for Sunday’s crit group. Yet. #
• 11:33 Something funny’s going on with my neck for no apparent reason, and I don’t like it :(. #
• 12:13 Skool marching band drumline playing during my walk to class. Fought *hard* not to march in time. Old habits, and all. #
• 13:40 All of my main email addys are at Inbox Zero again! But for how long? #
• 17:59 Mother of Pearl, today was suckstastic. #
• 19:23 After dinner, there will be blood. I mean, writing! Same thing. #
• 19:25 @strikethru My gut answer is no! 🙂 #
• 22:02 @strikethru BeTwittered lets me Twitter from my iGoogle page–it’s the ultimate combination of multitasking and time-wasting! #

• 08:15 At the bagel place, scribbling down WIP notes but distracted by thoughts of the 1/2-finished problem set due tomorrow. #
• 08:16 Playlist: CHALLENGERS by The New Pornographers. #
• 08:26 I can’t take it–I’m gonna take another crack at this problem set, otherwise I’ll never write. #
• 08:32 RT @Colleen_Lindsay Chico Writer’s Group has just uploaded an RTF file of the entire #queryfail tweet stream: tinyurl.com/b835nx #
• 09:05 Finished the problem set; will review it later. Already drained. Doesn’t bode well for my "Monday" today. #
• 11:05 Given a hero’s welcome at work–just for showing up today. It’s that bad (or, it was). #
• 13:04 Going to lunch and I’m gonna frakin’ *write*! No skoolwork, no nothing else. Well, except eating…but after that!! #
• 14:22 245 words of notes at lunch–enough to get me back into the WIP and that much closer to done! #
• 16:38 Ol’ Blue Eyes on the work CD player. Feel like drinking Manhattans after work, now. #
• 19:50 RT @Catrambo Realms of Fantasy resurfaces! tinyurl.com/df97zk #
• 19:53 Gonna scarf down some Chinese food and look over this morning’s problem set. So wanted to write more…waaaah!! #
