What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: Finished typing Chapter Fifteen; started writing Chapter Twenty-One.
Fave line: "He's pretending to be a piñata."
What Else I Accomplished Today: Ever so slowly chipping away at the things left to do list at home. The biggest problem seems to be how a simple task spawns at least two more tasks to do before it can be finished. Couldn't caulk the kitchen ceiling because it must be clean, so I cleaned it. Then I got bogged down in another task and still didn't caulk the ceiling.
What I'm looking forward to: Halloween!
What I'm not looking forward to: I never put cleaning the back porch on my list, but I better do it soon otherwise, someone will trip in the dark and die and it will probably be me.

What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: Characters collide, and I got a lot of typing done for a Monday.
Fave line: "I heard you talking. No need to clam up now."
What Else I Accomplished Today: I spent the whole weekend on house repairs and finished all but 5 projects out of the list of 18. I know that's good, but it means this week is spent cleaning up the mess made by home repair work and finishing up what I didn't get done before company comes on Friday. One room at a time. But just from what I already got done this weekend, my bedroom is a dark cave for hibernation.
What I'm looking forward to: Halloween!
What I'm not looking forward to: Shopping for a Halloween prop I thought I had bought, but turns out what I got must be plugged in. Off to find a battery-powered version or the raw ingredients to hack a battery-powered version.

Fave line: "The truth about Harvey Dent, which doesn't seem to have fazed any veterans of MCU, hit him hard."

Fave line: Selina kept her comments neutral because she had no idea who Roger Goodell was, why he hated the Rogues, or what it had to do with salary caps.

Fave line: "No!" Tears ran down her cheeks. "Selina happy. Liar!"

Fave line: "That's your idea of selfishness?"
What Else I Accomplished Today: Started on the deep house cleaning that can now continue for the rest of my vacation because Mom doesn't fell well and cancelled the three day trip.
What I'm looking forward to: Getting to work on the rest of my writing projects while on break from cleaning the house. Just as soon as I find my desk working surface again.
What I'm not looking forward to: Pulling the Murphy Oil Soap out and mopping. I'm afraid that's the only way to get rid of the talcum powder look.

What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: I'm behind in writing out chapters by longhand, but since there's a possibility I'll be without a computer for three days this week, I have to get the next chapter posted.
Fave line: My name is Selina, Ms. Kyle if you're nasty, which you are, Barsad."
What Else I Accomplished Today: Still giving Once Upon a Time a chance. It is time to stop with the flashbacks are storyline B in the episodes (especially if the flashback is all about the Charmings) like last week's episode. This week, the flashback showed the relationship between characters in the Enchanted Forest (this is good flashback!) and we got current actions in the Enchanted Forest. Oh Mulan! My girl needs a hug. But I'll give the makers credit for making last season's subtext full on text now.
What I'm looking forward to: Airing out my house.
What I'm not looking forward to: Mom waffling on if we taking the three-day trip or not. Cleaning my whole house. It's not overwhelming mess and handling one room at a time will get it clean, I just HAVE to get started.

What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: Finished typing Chapter Twelve. Finished renumbering the rest of the chapters. Hopefully, that will hold for a week at least.
Fave line: Today's terrorist activity had nothing to do with that deranged clown.
What Else I Accomplished Today: I decided that the pants I wore to the paying job today have to go to a new home. I'm a petite, but whoever made these petite pants created capris when I put them on. And they are a velvety material that won't work for spring and summer when I wear capris.

What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: I discovered what scenes I had outlined and handwritten as Chapter Twelve fell too short in word count, so I'm adding in Chapter Thirteen until I find the best stopping point, which also means I need to renumber the chapters in the rough draft again.
Fave line: "What did he do to Lucius and Miranda? They were the only ones who knew where it was."

What I'm looking forward to: Airing out my house.
