The Dog-End of a Day Gone By
Jul. 19th, 2013 06:10 pmFriday's here, at last at last.
Doing my best to try to catch up with things, and it's proving a bit tougher than usual. This is what happens when I get so focused on one thing that I forget about everything else (in this case, focusing primarily on the trilogy revision). Perhaps this weekend I'll be able to get current again. Just little things that I'm behind on, really...the occasional poetry, the picture posting, the posting here on LJ now and again, and so on.
I really should read more of the Hugo-nominated stories as well. I tried to read a few of the short stories and novellas earlier but couldn't quite get into them. They're not bad, I've just never been that much of a short story reader and it's taking me time to get used to the different format. I'm pretty sure it's also due to the fact that I'm so focused on my revisions as of late that it's affecting my being able to enjoy these stories. I won't feel too bad if I don't finish them, however...the main point is to enjoy the convention when we're there!
And as we've just had a filling and very-unhealthy-for-us dinner from Hard Knox up the street (me: country fried steak, mashed potatoes, and cole slaw, A = fried chicken, same sides) and are washing it down with beers (me: Maui Brewing Co's Liquid Breadfruit, A: 21st Amendment's Hell or High Watermelon), you can tell it's been pretty much that kind of week. ;)
Hope everyone has a good weekend!
