- Painted the studio entrance bright red w/ D
- Sent my rough draft to my editor, feeling free + brave, eagerly awaiting the brutal honesty I requested
- Popped bubble wrap with the head of my county's forensic dept. at my work
- Been doing Dunkin Donuts runs during happy hour (2-4pm) for Chris and I to have coffee Coolattas
- It's been raining like hell every day. It's beautiful, especially at the studio - and I realized how happy the sound of puddles splashing makes me
- Moving stuff into the studio by myself on most days. Makes me feel strong.
- D bought me a used Power Mac G4 in advance for my birthday
- Met with my editor, we agree on everything... and things went swimmingly!
- Driving 55mph into the north cape, the twilight dark blue melting into green, the sunroof down, NIN's Year Zero up, and wind through my hair - felt so full of life. I felt inspired to write about a strangely peaceful escape as a result...
- Sat in the warehouse with my fiancé + Kyle + Kendra on her 21st birthday, drank Amberbock + horrible sweet tea vodka + Fireball whiskey at favorite bar
- Lots of planning for the next novel (getting ahead of myself), using a green notebook while at work to take notes
- Working hard in weather that's way too hot to bear. Craving isolation and a walk-in freezer
- Listening to mafia stories from my co-worker
- Torrential rain at the shop, met the GM of the local CPK, was given a beer mug for my 21st from the parts guy
- Bought FetishCon passes 10 minutes before they stopped selling them. Decided to move everything before we left in two days.
- I spent from 4pm to 12pm the next day moving all of our stuff - shared coffee, climbed up more flights of stairs than I ever did during conditioning for fencing. Woke up very sore next evening in our new place and drove to Tampa for FetishCon
- Driving to Tampa, 75mph, sunroof open, meteor shower overhead
- Saw Mosh's burlesque show at The Castle, it was amazing. We were RIGHT in front of her.
