I’m suddenly wondering how many words I’ve written on this iPad sitting on my lap…it’s a lot. Close to half a million? Just these nightly blog entries, which are 99% written on my trusty iPad…just those have to get me to around 400,000. And then there’s the novel, and the half a billion times I’ve re-written Icarus. It’s a lot. A lot of words.

The pups are currently on top of the covers and each pressed up against my legs, on either side. It’s not an overly cold night, but it must be nippy enough for them to need to snuggle up. The Ho hasn’t come to bed yet. When she does, they’ll shift around again. Coops is usually on the floor now, that’s where he likes to sleep, and the Coco usually down by my feet, in between my legs. I love sleeping with the dogs. I never would have thought it would be so comfortable and comforting to do so. We always had outside pets when I was growing up, we never let them into our beds. But I was missing out, yo. It’s magic.

I worked hard today, all day…and night. Earning that paycheck, yo. AND did two writing hours. I have the Sundance doc down to the requisite word count, but I’m afraid I have no idea if it’s any good. I’m going to show it to a couple people over the weekend, hopefully they can look at it, and then do revisions based on their notes. Deadline is next week. Wednesday, I think. I mean, I *know* the deadline is the 10th…I’m just not sure exactly which day of the week that is, that’s all. Don’t get your panties in a twist.

This new work I’m doing does have one downside, and I do mean “one”…otherwise, it’s much more interesting. The downside is that I can’t put anything on in the background while I do it. I have to use my ears for the work at-hand. So, no music…no X-Files. I do miss that. But, because the work is new, the hours slip by very quickly.

Oh! Took a shower tonight, too. That was wonderful. Always feel shiny and new after taking a nice shower.

Jesus.

Fascinating stuff here on this blog. Aren’t you glad you tuned in?

I think that’s all I got tonight. I’m pretty bushwhacked. Oh, the Ho and I did take a nice stroll together around lunch time to Ralph’s and got some miscellaneous supplies. That was fun. It was just a solid work day today. Stayed on task and on schedule the whole time. Good focus. A good amount of work done.

Life is good.

Catch you tomorrow 😉
