Please pray/light candles/send positive thoughts my way. Work has been horrid this week… I found out things and was told things this week I don’t think I can tolerate anymore. The student that assaulted me before Thanksgiving is still here. Had Former Suitor not turned into such a shit over night – yes Bill, I’m talking about you! – I would be packing my stuff, cleaning out what I don’t want FASTER, and moving to the Gulf Coast Memorial Day weekend. Yes, it’s been that bad.
Really.
I tore 7 pages of Gary out of the current chapter of Nemo. It’s not tossed, I just cut and pasted it into another document. That discussion isn’t going to happen right now. I’ve decided they are too fresh.
William is having a rough go out of the gates. Vivienne is proving to be a difficult, headstrong filly and the leather-clad muse has informed me of a plot twist I hadn’t planned (thought about) on.
I need to take a good look at The Shepherd. I’ve not updated it in ages.
I’m behind posting at EFFN and the new moderator at RAF has taken a long vacay and didn’t tell anyone. The former moderator has unplugged from pretty much everything. Did I mention I really dislike posting at a moderated site? I have a backlog and I’m certain I’m not the only one.
I’m going to have to restore/reset my computer today. I’m moving things off my hard drive now as we speak. This is the 4 th time since September all over the same thing – my cd/dvd rom. It won’t burn. It gives me an error. The customer service guys are telling me it’s because my drivers aren’t compatible… but wait, I’ve USED it for a year. How can it be NOT compatible???
Thing is moving slower than a mo-fo anyway! It’s worse than dialup.
I want chocolate. Milk chocolate and I want a coke.
So on that note, we’ll say I’m just too pissy for polite company and here… have some Richard.

Indeed, this week passed incredibly fast. I was saying that to my family today, too.
Sorry to hear that you have had bad news in work – especially as it looks as if your former resistance to moving may now be overthrown, anyway. I hope things will work out for you somehow. New year, new ventures.
Lots of writing work to keep you distracted, though. And the muse is coming on strong, too… That’s good news for your readers! Hooray.
Your picture gallery today really took my breath away. That Ascroft b/w!!! *thud* Ricky Deeming. And that irresistible glimpse of him as he is listening to the two presenters at that NY show, wondering what they are saying about him… Gosh, always a mood enhancer. Many thanks.

i have spent most of the afternoon reconfiguring my laptop. So far, not so good.
I didn’t have an adversion to moving to Florida… when I thought I had a committed relationship. When he decided we didn’t have one…. well, that was that. Oh well. Right now, I’m simply keeping my head down and deciding if I should complain or if it’s worth complaining. It will – or should – be over by the end of the school year… so… 14 weeks???? I don’t know. Maybe I’ll get to write tomorrow. Maybe I’ll get to watch some Berlin Station tomorrow.
Maybe I should just shut up and go to the grocery, go do laundry and continue cleaning….

Thanks for the Richard! Hope things get better for you. Resist the chocolate and the coke (she says as she drinks a mocha)! Go for the long term health, if you can.

I dug out my diabetic and low carb cookbooks this week. That’s what we’re planning from right now
SueBC said:
How’s the Weight Watchers going? Mine is charging my credit card monthly, so I should probably try to go back to it!
zeesmuse said:
They have their launch next week and I start up the week after that. I quit cokes cold turkey last weekend. I’ve not been a nice person.
SueBC said:
Yeah, caffeine/sugar withdrawal is tough. Good luck with the WW.

So sorry for the awful week at work. Issues with students, parents, or faculty? Hate some of these curveballs life throws. It’s one thing to get thrown a curveball, another to be hit by it. Thank you for some new pics for my wallpaper. Hang in there.

It’s not going to get better until school let’s out. At least I know why now. Doesn’t help, but at least I know why.

Oh Zee! It’s true that most people would not be able to wrap their heads around what the average teacher has to go through on a daily basis. The things you hear, know or have to deal with would have a normal person crawling under their stairs, crying and pulling hair from their head. Keep smiling…fake it till you make it every morning plus caffeine. lol
zeesmuse said:
I’ve popped you a note at FB…. it’s long….
carlyquinnauthor said:
I better go look!

Sorry about the shitty stuff at work! It’s always good to distract yourself with Richard…
