What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: Chapter Twenty-Six finished on time. Now I have the rest of the day to finish Chapter Twenty-Seven.
Fave line: "You'll be sucked into the cult of Disney soon enough."
What Else I Accomplished Today: XMarks did not go cuckoo today. I shifted my chiropractic appointment to today instead of Thursday, so I have lots of spare time in Baton Rouge today. Unfortunately I need the time at home to get ready for weekend trip. :p
What I'm looking forward to: Three-day weekend!
What I'm not looking forward to: My weekend week plans:

  • Drink more water and pee every five seconds (probably). I think I've got this under control now and I am feeling better.
  • Add in new 15 minute yoga routine.
  • Scour the computer for stuff I'm not using, delete what I don't need, archive what I want to save, and backup.
  • Clean out the mass of bookmarks.
  • Set up Dropbox account to sync bookmarks.
  • Sew my corset.
  • Regularly schedule chores.
Made it through Monday, bring on the rest of the week.

What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: Typing right on schedule. Didn't work on Chapter Twenty-Seven though.
Fave line: "Married less than twenty-four hours before a kidnapping, that has to be a record."
What Else I Accomplished Today: XMarks did not go cuckoo today. Everyone decided to call me while I was trying to do the yoga routine, so the fifteen minute program took thirty. :p

What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: I finished Chapter Twenty-Six over the weekend, so no delay on starting typing today. And Chapter Twenty-Seven has started off well.
Fave line: "Do you routinely hack into your employees emails?"
What Else I Accomplished Today: Visited parents who made it in from their trip. Over-scheduled the weekend as usual, so I've got to spread things out throughout the week. Decided to start cleaning my hard drive with the game demos from Big Fish Games since I have the bad habit of not deleting something I'm sure I won't buy. I reached the M's. XMarks did not go cuckoo today.
What I'm looking forward to: Three-day weekend!

What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: Finally finished and post Chapter Twenty-Five!
Fave line: "I'm not paying you to think," Green-coat man snapped beside her.
What Else I Accomplished Today: Shopping, too much shopping, so I didn't have as much shopping on Saturday.
What I'm looking forward to: Payday!
What I'm not looking forward to: First thing: Don't plan on going anywhere because I need to up my water intake to where it should be. BUT I have to finish grocery shopping on Saturday.



Second thing: XMarks freaked out when I got home and freaked out again at work. Good news: everything matches up to the home computer's saved set now. Bad news: I don't trust XMarks to keep the safe, especially the stuff I reference for story writing.



So my weekend plans, such as they are and scheduled to change everything permitting:

  • Drink more water and pee every five seconds (probably).
  • Grocery shopping.
  • Scour the computer for stuff I'm not using, delete what I don't need, archive what I want to save, and backup.
  • Clean out the mass of bookmarks.
  • Set up Dropbox account to sync bookmarks.
  • Sew my corset.
  • Write Chapter Twenty-Six.
  • Regularly schedule chores.
Hopefully the weekend won't turn into this:

Fave line: If Montoya needed to search the computer desk, it would look better if Selina hadn't done it first.

What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: Finally finished the rough draft. Didn’t finish typing though.
Fave line: "It occurred to me that you and Miss Rachel might have caused less trouble if you had had a swing set."
What Else I Accomplished Today: I lost thirty minutes coming into work (Stupid traffic made me 15 minutes late and we have to take time in 30-minute intervals). Then I ended up staying late for thirty minutes. But I got the bras returned!
What I'm looking forward to: Payday!
What I'm not looking forward to:



Yeah, I moved it up because basically the whole XMarks situation I’ve been not dealing with waiting for the eventually I’ll do it. Yeah, more fun on the paying job computer and I synced to not lose my open tabs and discovered XMarks ate all the bookmarks saved on the server.



I didn't lose my data; I've been backing up my bookmarks at home so I could do a flush and clean install. But since reading over reviews for this year and talking with a coworker, I'm leaning towards using Dropbox to keep things in sync instead. The only con I can see is it is not cross-platform like XMarks, but I never used that feature of XMarks. So yes, all that has to happen this week. Probably Friday or Saturday since I have a doctor's appointment Thursday after work.

What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: I'm still writing Chapter Twenty-Five's rough draft and now I've started typing it. Never again will I publish a WIP. NEVER.
Fave line: That simple declaration brought Bruce onto his feet with the fewest repetitions of push-ups that Alfred had ever witnessed him perform. – It is sad how much I like the obsessive amount of push-ups.
What Else I Accomplished Today: I didn't finish the rough draft so blah.
What I'm looking forward to: Payday!
What I'm not looking forward to: Item 1: Take the bras back to the store that didn't fit. I'm not crazy about underwires. I have a petite torso and they constantly poke me in the arms. But I am of the boob size where the only bras you can get are underwire. These that I'm taking back gave me under-boob. I didn't think that was possible with underwire bras but hey, time to prove me wrong about that too. Item 2 that I still haven't done: Once I get XMarks saved bookmarks correct I have to have a massive save page as party and completely change how I archive my research for everything now because I can't trust the paying job computer not to screw with it somehow. Still haven't had a chance to fix that yet because I'm terrified I'll lose everything if I touch any of it. Not to mention I decided to check on my available hard drive space, and wowsers, I have to clean that up.

What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: Finished Chapter Twenty-Four with plenty of time today to work on Chapter Twenty-Five's rough draft. How many scenes were going into that chapter?
Fave line: "Cartier's is spitting mad about their outside décor and I've got zookeepers freaking out over their lack of security footage. Tell me what the hell is going on."
What Else I Accomplished Today: I just realized I forgot to pack another pack on loose-leaf in my black bag. I'm in no danger of running out today, but I should have replaced it already.
What I'm looking forward to: Need to make a doctor's appointment so I can get my vitamins straightened out.
