One of those days...

Well, I'm off after work to WalMart to get something to tape up the screens on our porch. Why? Because Bear apparently got out today and hung out under our porch until our wonderful landlady found him and put him back in the house.

He nearly gave me a heart attack. I was running around, late for work and nearly in tears because I couldn't find him. My cats are my babies (hey, I have no kids), and he's NOT equipped to live outdoors. These guys are strictly indoor kitties. But they love the porch, and I like giving them some fresh air, so it's off to get some stuff to make sure he can't get out again. (Yes, we're replacing the screens eventually, but we have to coordinate with the landlords on that.)

In other news, I need to learn to destress a bit more. I had a major headache today, because of Bear and life and I'm sick and the book's being a PITA and...you get the idea. I've got a bellydance workout taped that I haven't had a chance to try, and I'm seriously considering starting yoga again. Anyone have any good suggestions for a fat, out-of-shape white girl?

I'm also going to start listing writing goals for the day again. I need to get back into a groove. To that end, the goals today:

1. Finish the timeline for Seasons

Yep, that's it. Finish the bloody timeline, and anything else is gravy. I also need to get caught up with crits over at DII (bad, bad Val), so I'm aiming to get one crit done tonight after I get home and can access my other email.

Oh, and the cold? I'm almost positive it's weather-related. Mid-70s during the day, and mid-40s at night. I HATE boomarangs like that. It plays havoc with my sinuses.

And I gained more weight. *sulk* Stress again. Gotta start working on that. I need about 10 more hours a day so I can fit in time to relax.

Okay, enough whining. Time to get my butt in gear and write (for the remainder of my lunch period).
