Hmmm. So procrastination applies to blogging too.
So, I have gained second wind, which is probably why I started this blog and promptly neglected it, all within a few days. Fire is now under proverbial ass (in a good way, honey, don't worry).
Some stats for those keeping track:
Words on current chapter written to date: 4500+.
Due date: soon.
Likelihood of actually finishing chapter by deadline: Signs point to yes.
Units of caffeine consumed: Is it wrong to see bugs on the wall? I mean, too much to quantify.
Number of hand wringing episodes: Negligible
Number of blogs surfed: Countless
New songs downloaded to help with writing: Franz Ferdinand "Take me out" & "Matinee", Ciera "Oh", PopWillEatItself "Ich bin ein auslander", Nin "The Perfect Drug".
Freelance pieces currently accepted for publication: One
Payment: Zero $, free desk copy of great book, copy of publication.
Free booze consumed Friday: 4 martinis, 1 Lagavullin whisky, 1 plate of pierogies (which is not booze but should be classified as a narcotic).
Attitude: Kathie Lee Gifford level of positivity, pre-Sweatshop scandal and excommunication from Regis' power hour.
Huzzah.

Well done. One of the perks that comes with journalism is the free booze and food, which I would like to say, was a result of your hard work and impeccable social graces.
Now let's watch Firefly.
Aw, *blush*.
Way to break in the comment portion of the blog. Now I don't have to write anonymous comments to myself late at night and then erase them in a fit of shame the next morning.
Not. that. I. Would. Do. That.
Not. At. All.
