The Den of Debauchery's Subannex

Work wiped me out. My truck started losing power, like it wasn't getting any fuel. So I had a rough 30 miles back to the terminal.

Came home and didn't do much.

off to bed. Fridays are rough.

Stuck at home on my day off. So I accomplished stuff. Made white chili for dinner. Baked Apple Oatmeal muffins and breakfast casserole, hard boiled eggs. Played Startopia, had a shower.

I failed at WW. 2lbs gained. Had a shower.

Business: Most of my day was absorbed in this. I went to the credit union, cashed a couple of checks and pulled my bonus money.

I went to Marion's City Hall, only to be redirected to West Memphis. The lady there was out, but the cop I tangled with lat spring gave me the stink-eye from the info booth.

So, I tried lunch at Sonic. Less said the better. They wouldn't answer when I pressed the service button.

So, off to pay cable and go to the Post Office. I'll do the PO Box paperwork later in the week.

Opened my new bank account. And the clerk called me as I was leaving the Doc-in-the-box (paid them off), to tell me she had shredded my photo id photocopy by accident.

I went to the library and printed my contract for Like it or Not and my state of Arkansas tax papers. Of course the first computer I chose didn't have Adobe reader on it. Luckily, the place was pretty quiet and I could switch.

Back to city hall, got my business license. Inkstained Succubus Productions is official. Off to Wal-Mart and got my one piece of office equipment: a big purple file box.

I came home to a royalty check from Storm Moon. It may be tiny, but this means I've earned out my advance!

I failed at the mac and cheese for dinner. My noodles came out sludgy and I didn't think I'd overcooked them. Enjoying some Glee and then off to bed. I'm in that "tired and satisfied" spot.
Work and mailing tomorrow

Work should have been lighter than it was. The regular freight was light but there were a lot of referral pieces.

Came home and did business-y stuff most of the evening, including some shameless self promotion. POWER IN THE BLOOD released today.

I pulled a really good one. I delivered a transmission to the wrong place over the weekend. Misread the city name. So today, in the rain, I had to reload that transmission so it could get where it was going.

Work was cold.
I got home, worked out and started edits. I also watched Doppelgangland. That one is just hilarious. Alyson Hannigan is a fine comedy actress, and Obi snarfed his drink when Xander shook the cross.

A good mail day. A check for about $100, for my story in Clockwork Spells. I think I'll use it to buy the cover art for Riding the Nightmare

Work went fast, for all that it was cruelly windy. The wind caught the door of the dealership I deliver to, and jammed the closing mechanism. I had to disassemble it (remove a screw) to get the door to close. I called after they opened and apologized for dismantling their door.

Took Obi to the dr. Kiddo is all wilted and barfy.
Stopped at grocery store.

Made spaghetti for dinner.
Wrote an interview. I'll be at Romance Lives Forever on the 16th. http://romancelivesforever.blogspot.com/ Had a brief moment of hope when I couldn't find the Collared Hearts books on Phaze. Alas, still there.

The interview took a lot out of me, as did the events of the day. Back on track tomorrow! Maybe i can even get on the bike.

And I love this song
