lydamorehouseIt astounds me that I can make a Britney Spears reference, but, anyway... Today I have skipped working out to get an early start on the THIRD restart of RESURRECTION CODE. Well, I had an epiphany the other day while meditating (no, really.) I think that Mouse needs to be more mousey in the beginning of the book, and by mousey, I mean, I think I haven't (up to this point anyway) sown enough character/personality seeds into his characterization. So, a restart is, alas, in order.
Wish me luck.
Also, I have to send out a big shout out to my dear friend![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
seanmmurphy, who very graciously stopped over on his way to work this morning to give my car a jump. I'm a bit baffled why my battery decided to conk out today, since it's actually supposed to see double digits this afternoon... And the battery was SO DEAD, in fact, that I lost my radio stations and the time on my clock. Not cool. Anyway, we all got to work on time, and I ran the car for almost an hour before turning it off, so hopefully it is now keeping a charge. I'm thinking about running out every couple of hours and starting it up, just to make sure.
I have neglected to keep everyone up on the fish news. My poor, dumb white mountain minnows once again have laid eggs. They've (possibly?) done this before, but they were doing their thing the other day when Shawn and I happen to be sitting in front of the tank, and we watched as the female would disappear into the thick bunch of java moss wiggle around, and then the male would follow shortly after and flash in and out. Two seconds later, the goldfish came over and happily sucked all the eggs up.
Sad.
But, honestly, what would I do with a clutch of baby minnow fry?
Solstice approaches! I'm really excited to have gotten an invite to a Yule Vigil, where we will tend a fire from sunset to sun up on Saturday night. Mason thinks this is pretty much the most awesome thing ever, so I'm going to bring him along.
Anyway, enough avoiding the book. Must. Go. Write!!
