For those interested in possibly having their original fiction published, there is a First Chapters contest, detailed here, that bills itself as the 'American Idol' of publishing contests. In other words, people vote on that all-important first chapter, and then the 2nd and 3rd chapters, and then a panel of industry people pick the winner from the five online-voted contest finalists. Merci to joianoel for the information. *smooches*


Ohhhhh...Saliva's Rest in Pieces is playing. Fuck me but I love that song. *wibbles* *possiblymaybesnifflestoo*


Contemplative, lazy day. Have to do stuff tomorrow, although I actually prefer to be Jewish about my day of rest. It makes more sense to do nada on Saturday when I'm sick up to here of the week, and then ease back into stuff on Sunday. Huh; I'd meant to post a whole TGIF thing last night and apparently forgot. This was one of those weeks that feels like a freaking eternity. Wasn't just me either - it was most of my division. LOL, yesterday the woman who sits beside me was looking in the shared drive for an Excel file and she asked me about it, b/c all she could see was Jan07 and it was the 12th. I gently reminded her that it's a *monthly* file, not daily. *laughs* But that is just indicative of how out of it everyone was. Fortunately, we have Sunday shopping now, so I can go run my errands tomorrow afternoon which has always been my preference.

I'm drinking the sparkling maple wine that was the other bottle I got for NYE (decided to drink the Prosecco). It's interesting, though not as fizzy as I was expecting. I think it might be a bad bottle that way. It's not spoiled, though, and it makes for nice dessert, even if it is going directly to my head despite having eaten dinner recently! If my spelling goes off the rails, y'all know why. Unlike mockingbird39, I do NOT type better when I'm drunk. lol

janajoh I know I already said so, but THANK YOU for proofing for me, especially as it was over Thanksgiving and I know you were busy. Your suggestions tightened things up quite a bit. Love you!

For anyone else who's wicked confused now, I entered the Writer's Digest ShortShort Contest. I don't really expect anything, and they won't tell anyone anything till like February anyway lol, but the very act of entering is a HUGE step. xD

And now I really need to go to bed, lol.
