Here and there

geese, I’m opening this diary up like clockwork. Opening and closing are always about the same times. The only vitiation has been PM and AM.

I got up though around 6am to do the cbi thing. I think I had an hour sleep but I had some energy so I decided to write. I went over the previous copy and realized how silly it was so I cut about 500 words out and stated over again and even though before the cut, I had about 800 words I worked for an hour and got the rest. I also revealed a mystery as well. I just hope I haven’t revealed it to early. Right now I’m 48,894 words into the story. And 29/80 scene count wise. Just about at the half way point word count wise but still 11 scenes to go for the story before I reach the middle of the book. The middle is moving way to fast. The whole story is moving way to fast. The way I’m going with this, I’ll have this puppy rough drafted out by March 10th, 3 weeks ahead of schedule. That’s be great news if it happens as I can concentrate on “MOF”  

I noticed the weather pixie has hearts coming from the top corner for Valentines day.

My wife and I are going to celebrate Valentines day on Monday because it’s Family Day. I’ll be working Saturday and Tuesday so I’ll be getting paid for it as well.

I know it happened a week ago but the tragic death of Anna Nicole Smith has been a story I’ve been following a lot lately. Last night ET broke the story about her house in the Bahamas had been ransacked. This is perhaps the biggest story for 2007 so far. It’s a strange story.

Ok, last night’s Oiler game. Geese these guys are a bunch of bums on the road. It’s not entirely their fault though because they’ve been getting some bad calls against them all season even at home with that Mick McGeough call earlier. Other teams the same night they play against don’t get called for things the Oilers have had the same game earlier. The officiating really sucks and I’d be very surprised if the Oilers make last place in the playoffs. They are 3 points ahead of the Av’s and 6 points behind Minnesota holding down the last playoff spot. So far the Oilers have yet to make a trade. Though there’s still 2 weeks left to go.

This has been a double blog posting kind of day. Oh well, back at the writing.
