Today was one of those odd days. I wasn’t quite sure how it was going to go. We had someone coming over to hang out in the evening, and beyond that, it was rather nebulous.
I decided last night I wanted to get work done, so I did get some done…but then the toilet in our second bathroom started overflowing with a lake of soap bubbles. Flooded the whole floor in there. But luckily, it was just the suds. Not too much actual water. Still took some time and effort to clean.
After that, I just decided I wanted to take over the building for the day so I could have an uninterrupted work day on Monday instead (the other day I was going to cover the building to make up for being gone on Wednesday and Thursday last week for the conference. This will work out better. Need to bust my ass and get some chapters read and edited tomorrow morning before we go to this wedding…but I can do it.
New plan for this rewrite/edit/revision is to do it 9-5 Friday through Tuesday. That means getting up a bit earlier in the mornings, but I can handle it. The co-working space isn’t far away, and I can even work at home in the mornings if I want to. We’ll see. And with the time change last weekend, it’s still pretty easy to re-set that clock.
Speaking of…it’s time for me to get ready for bed.
Before I go, though: I started reading the book Neuromancer today. It’s so good. The Matrix is such a DIRECT rip-off of the book–or, put another way, “inspired by” or “homage”–it’s rather astonishing. The dude invented the words “Matrix” and “Cyberspace,” for christsake, at least in how they pertain to the genre of Cyberpunk as a whole.
Anywho, had to write that for tonight so I don’t forget in the future. Today was the day I started reading it. I think I’m going to like it very much 🙂
