Quick Update
Dec. 30th, 2006 11:18 pmI'm working all weekend at Job #1, as well as likely the next week and a half. I've hired two new people that I'm training in, trying to coordinate four people, and interviewing three more on Tuesday--I probably won't bring anyone else in on this project, but it would be nice to have more coders available. Narf. Really, I want to get to the point where I can point a group of people at a project, say, "Sic it!" and then work on my writing in between answering their questions. That would be acceptable (for me).
Still haven't unpacked entirely from Christmas vacation. I'm trying to squeeze in a bit of cleaning around the edges, but....
"Periwinkle Eyes," my short story about a blind artist, had been accepted at Art Times. It will be my first paid publication in a print literary journal, so that's pretty exciting! On the other hand, they are currently accepting short stories for an expected print date three years in the future. Eeep.
Tomorrow is the last day that you can read my short story, "Blood for Oil," at Allegory Ezine.
We have practically no food in the fridge, but the Mad Scientist says he likes the challenge to his creativity and says he'll delay food purchasing until next Tuesday. This would be more acceptable to me if we had things like milk and bread.
The Catholic wedding of Donny and Anne, good friends currently living in California but planning on maybe moving back at some point, was beautiful. The reception and after-party were fantastic. And I think/hope I got some very good photographs.
I'll be atgunn's New Years Eve party, of course. Between starvation, overscheduling, working too much, and not getting enough sleep, I may not make much sense in conversation, but I'll be there.
