I’m dealing with three things at once. I’m feeling a little guilty about it, too.
One is that we’re getting ready for a party tomorrow. Superficially, it’s to celebrate a wedding anniversary and a retirement (her’s, not mine yet, dammit) and an excuse to go to the wine store. But really, it’s just a big ol’ wet kiss to the fact that we’re both still alive. It always comes down to that for all of us in the end, you know.
But the advice to finish what you start applies to the writing work. I am working on the book. I haven’t been talking about it, because i found out that if I was talking, I wasn’t writing. But I haven’t done much yesterday and won’t today.
Yesterday was due to the third thing, which is the aftermath of that annoying little blood clot in a tiny part of my brain that is still making itself felt. Yesterday was a day it was making itself felt, and I wasn’t able to get out of the chair much. Today I feel great. It seems to go like that. So today is party prep, tomorrow is the party, and then “Running Girl” is going to feel my hands all over her again.
Hmmm. Come to think of it, maybe I shouldn’t wait. 🙂

Congratulations to you and your wife, Hem. At the moment, Running Girl seems to be the one to envy. 🙂 Enjoy your celebratory weekend.

It’s just that after I wrote that, it started to sound better and better. Between Miriam and Rose, I’ve got my hands full… um… so to speak. 🙂

It’s a nice problem to have in one sense. On the other hand, why in the world would any man want to disappoint TWO women, especially two like these? !! And which one will be Running Girl in the end? That’s still a mystery to me, too.

Haha. Yes, well you seem to be handling these two just fine. A fun mystery, I bet.
