I am informed that Mercury is retrograde. Again. This might explain some things, but I'm also aware that life doesn't stop just because communications are fouled, and there are things that need to get done this week.
So I will proceed with caution, but I will proceed nonetheless.
And to start things off on the right wrong foot, my phone is beeping at me. But not all the time, oh no. Only when I unplug it from the charger. Mind, if the charger is unplugged from the wall, that's fine, so long as the cord remains plugged into the PHONE. Only when I remove it from there does it start to beep. And any attempt to reboot it makes the phone insist it has NO CHARGE WOE IS IT but when I plug it in again, hey, 100% charge!
....my phone's dead, isn't it? Or at least borderline revenant? Fuck.
Meanwhile, I have mailed off all the things I needed to mail, and emailed almost all the people I need to mail, and I'd be making all the phone calls I need to make except, well, phone. *points to previous paragraph*
Tonight is the SFWA mill-n-swill, wherein I need to talk to several people in person. Then tomorrow and Wednesday I am back to neck-deep in revisions. And then Wednesday night I am off to Seattle for five days, to do Various Things. And continue working on revision because Merc retrograde and Busy Weeks mean nothing to deadlines....
