I’m trying, I really am. I need to get myself on a schedule again, where I settle in to write before work, so it’s done. I also need to start working on more blog posts. I just feel like I don’t know quite what to say, so blogging feels – I dunno. Self-aggrandizing. Ah well, …

(personal/update/writing) I really don’t do this blogging thing well, do I?
(personal) Only 1 blister! Score!
Yesterday was the day I ran my first solo 5k. I did run about half of it – walked the other half, but that is fine. My time was 1.05.56 – better than the last race (I think we were at 1.30 or something), and I was able to run across the finish line. More …
(personal) Musings on birthdays and life
It’s my birthday today. Today is the last time I will celebrate a birthday in my 30s – next year is the big 4-0. I was talking to my new doctor on Thursday and you know, I don’t FEEL like I’m staring 40 in the face. I don’t even feel 30. I look at myself, …
(writing) 36 days and counting!
311 words tonight. Not easy words – work is crushing me lately, and so I’m working on keeping things in perspective. Not a long post, but a post. Gotta start thinking about my NaNo story. In other news, “Stranded” is “Fear” for a new generation.
(writing) Starting things off with a bang
I wrote over 10,000 words last month. And that was in about 18 days. This month, I intend to do much more than that. I started tonight with 629 words. My goal every day is 250. I intend to beat it five nights out of seven. What about you guys? What are your …
(personal/writing) Goal met! And on to the next!
Today, I stepped on the scale and blinked. Several times. Guys, I’ve been trying REALLY hard to moderate my eating and to exercise, and I’ve finally broken through my first goal. I’ve dropped 10 lbs. It might not seem like much, given I’d like to lose approximately 100 more pounds, but it’s a …
(personal/writing/health/reading) So many things running through my head…
And yet, I fee very calm. Not crazy, just in a zen kind of mood. I DO have a lot to do. And I’m confident I can do it. I’ve been gluten-free now for almost two months, and I can feel differences that I didn’t realize I would. Things are clearer – like a …
(personal/to-do) Recovery day
So yeah, lost most of the weekend recovering from the flu that’s going around work. Call centers are petri dishes, you know? I was feeling crappy on Thursday – by Friday, I knew I was sick. Spent all Saturday asleep, and am finally starting to feel better. However, I know better than to push it. …
