I have been wanting to blog for days now! Or at least what seems like days. I just checked and I did make a post yesterday; but I didn't have time to respond to or make comments. I did that tonight though.
Yesterday, the Jeep had to go in for more service. Between mine and Hubby's vehicles, we've had over $1100 in repairs in the past two weeks. That sucks! I did a little of the cleaning I had put off while The Poet was home. I still have much more to do. My office is a disaster. The rest just needs a quick dust and swiffer! I worked on the laundry. My dryer is broken and with the car repairs there is no way I can afford to get it fixed or replace it. So I bought a drying rack and hung a line in the basement. It works just fine for me and I don't really mind it. I also got my own website yesterday, but I have to still set it up. Once I've got it up and running I'll let you all know what it is! You can be certain it will be naughty!!! I'll likely use it for my writing...I'm trying to get a bit more serious about it and it makes sense to me to have my own site rather than using LJ to post my erotica - although I may also maintain that as a way of linking to the site for those that are regulars there.
Today I had to go to the client's office - I do that 2 or 3 times a week usually. I got an email from him tonight and I am going to have to head over there tomorrow and see if I can't figure out why he keeps getting emails about viruses and worms. I'll have to run his anti-virus program to see what is up...he usually cancels his updates because he doesn't realize he can keep working while they are running. Frustrating! He is also haveing monitor problems and we will likely have to replace it. Pity because is it only a year or so old. Out of warranty though.
The Walking Hormone had a volleyball game today. The "A" team won and the "B" team lost. She plays on the "B" team. I felt bad for her and she was really upset about the loss. She did make a couple of significant errors though. She also made some good hits. Hubby was home tonight. It's the first night he's been home and in bed before 3:30 a.m. He's got several projects going on at the office and they are all happening NOW. His being gone wreaks havoc on my sleep cycle. I have a hard time going to bed when I know he is going to be that late. Last night I tried to stay up for him, but I fell to sleep about 3:15. He doesn't like me to stay up anyway; he worries about how it affects my bipolar. I have to admit though that while I love having him home, I have really enjoyed having the house to myself the past few days. It is nice to feel like I can do my thing without worrying about somebody needing something.
I've always been a night owl. Ever since I can remember I've been more productive and creative at night. I guess I am lucky that I am self-employed and can pretty much make my own schedule, within a certain amount of reason. It means I don't have to be up before 9 or 10 most days. I can remember a time when I could get up at 6 a.m. to head to work and then go out afterwards and party until the wee hours only to get up and do it all over again. I can't do that anymore!!! I need my sleep now...I just get it at a later time than most.
Tomorrow I really need to finish up the cleaning. I have a friend coming over to watch movies in the late afternoon and do some girl talk. I am really looking forward to it. I"m not certain what we are going to watch yet; she is bringing a few to choose from. And let's not forget the client. AND I also have to do the monthly financial reports for my other client. *sigh* If I ever get around to keeping up with my own personal finances it will be a miracle!
While I was at the volleyball game today I went through some submission requests to figure out which ones I wanted to work on and which didn't fit what I want to write right now or just wasn't interested in for some reason. There are 3 that I would like to submit to that are due within the next 10 days. I think I can pull it off if I can get things around here organized tomorrow - and talk Hubby and The Walking Hormone into leaving me alone to do my writing!!! When my lovely youngest daughter is home, she tends to be quite needy in the way of attention. It makes it really hard to write or do anything for that matter. So on the weeks that she is not here I am left to play catch up on what I didn't get done when she was home. It makes it really hard to stay sane...oh wait...I was already certifiable! Back to the writing. The 3 submissions: Variety of themes; 2000 to 4000 words. I already have a story written that I would like ot use for this one and need to just do a bit of editing and cleaning up. Hot winter/holiday that'll melt the snow! 5000 to 12000 words. I have great thoughts on this one. Christmas is my favorite holiday and I do lots of decorating for it, so I can definitely make up some wonderful Christmas-time erotica!!! Non-fiction; personal essay. Love: Now that I Really Know What it is. 3000 to 5000 words. This should be a relatively easy one for me because Hubby has brought so much love into my life. He really is the first person I've ever completely trusted and the only one to truly break the walls around my heart and soul. The sexuality is supposed to be PG-13. Hmph!
And one last thing...I really need some good sex! Hubby did okay over the weekend, but tomorrow is hump day *giggle* and so it is time. I told him he should wake me up in the morning. I'd be happy to wake up long enough for a bit of nookie. I can go back to sleep afterwards.
Sweet dreams all!
Remember sniglets? Do you have any favorites? Have you ever made up your own word? (Now's as good a time as any.)
HA! I'm not sure that I have any of my own...but my teenage daughter, who shall be referred to as The Walking Hormone, has many! One of my favorites is "chillax". It is a combination of "chill out" and "relax". She hates when hubby and I use the word, but it is definitely one of our favorites!
