Cat owners. We get more done before 9am than the rest of you do all day. Just not willingly.

Note to self: when cats wake you up at 5am, throwing them out the window is an option.

Note to self2: when in the grip of a massive word-making marathon? Remember to get up and move every few hours. No matter how comfortable the cats say they are. Remember that they woke you up at 5am.


Movies watched; Operation Petticoat. Because, really, a day that starts with Cary Grant is a good day. Also a docu on the making of disaster movies. That actually ended up being a note-taking excursion, not background noise. Ooops. Far too many episodes of "Last Comic Standing." Currently, Victor/Victoria, because Robert Preston is love.

Blankets used: None. It was actually nice out today.

Correspondence: arranged a lunch date for tomorrow, talked Paris-vacation plans with my sister, picked several peoples' brains for various bits of information.

Chores accomplished: None. Okay, I put the last of the laundry away, and cleaned off the kitchen counters. And clipped feline claws, after Pandora's kneading drew blood.

Exercise: Full lower body and abs workout. Go me!

Food eaten: a sesame seed bagel. The last of the poached salmon. A lot of caffeine. There is chicken marinating in the fridge for dinner.

Freelance project: Oh, god, the guilt. Maybe I'll work on it tonight.

Words written: so far: 2,200. Taking a break, and about to dive in for the rest of the day's count. 6500/7500 for the weekend. May make it, may not...

Ah, the Paris visit. I'm hoping we can do lunch or dinner on the Saturday. I'd really like to discuss editing with you, as you are the only person (read:pro) that I "know" who does this line of work on the other side of the Atlantic. I'm looking forward to comparing freelancer rules on the different sides of the Atlantic. BTW, I've almost finished my BORING porject about public transportation. Not that I want to rub salt in your wound or anything. *VBEG*

So far, we've only determined for certain is that I won't be in town for the marathon (a good thing, as it will reportedly pass directly in front of my hotel, and I don't find marathoners to be aesthetically pleasing -- like anemic greyhounds with a bad case of dehydration).

So, we can pencil in that Saturday the 22nd, and solidify plans once it's actually Spring?

Any animal in my household who did that would suffer the indignity forevermore of feline Depends.

The wake-up calls in this house tend to involve someone Looking and someone else Hissing in response, and then a wild and horribly girl-fighting exchange of paw-slaps. Usually performed over some part of mom's until-then sleeping form.

Sounds good. I've penciled you in, if one can "pencil" in a computer.
