So today was mostly a good day.
I found out that most of what I've been doing at work has been for naught, as neither of the procedures we want to use can be used -- one requires too much RAM, and the other requires our data to be other than they are. Fun! But in the end it means I'm doing something *way* simpler, and that's always good. I had to duck out a little early so I could hit the bank and deposit the roommate's rent check so mine will clear whenever our landlord decides to deposit it (which seems to occur at random).
Rehearsal was long and mostly seemed to involve logistics, but I swear, there are moments when I look around and am just stunned at the group I sing with. And of course I get annoyed with the rehearsal schedule and I wish I could skip some rehearsals because of music I already know, but. I sing with the San Francisco Symphony Chorus. That's pretty fucking amazing.
I posted part thirteen of a story I never thought I'd write -- I think it's over 15,000 words, which for me is unprecedented. The response has been overwhelming and I find myself liking the actual writing part of it -- once I know what's going to happen, of course. The current arc mostly deals with a thing I discussed briefly with
estrella30 and which I'm having a rough time laying out, for reasons I'm sure you'll see when the next couple parts are done. Is it wrong that my favorite character to write is Tricia? For my own sanity, I'm going to have to think of a stopping point and plan toward that, since I know I don't have enough steam -- authorial or motivational -- to keep the story going on forever.
Tomorrow is the
Supernatural season finale! I think I'll be in
spn_live on the west coast thread -- Brenda, Caleb, Bunny (the usual suspects), will I see you there? What about
without_me? Or will we all be too busy biting our knuckles to chat about it?
And oh gods, if any of you spoil me I will gut you like a FISH.
