Quickie

Quickie post in bullets, ’cause I want to get to work on a couple writing projects ASAP!

  • I’m not too happy with a certain person named after one of my favorite TV characters right now. “Jude” seems to be blowing me off left and right for “Tommy”.
  • My back is killing me and has been since yesterday.
  • I received my financial aid refund from this semester yesterday. It was for over $500 and is all going to the get-me-a-better-car-NOW fund.
  • I plan on submitting to several writing contests in the next couple of weeks.
  • I just realized that I have some Aleve in the house and it just might help my back.
  • I picked up a copy of Stephenie Meyer’s The Host and plan on starting it as soon as I finish Stephen King’s Gerald’s Game — which is very good, by the way. I want to pick up copies of Cut (Patricia McCormick — all three of her books look good), Go Ask Alice (Anonymous, everyone should read this), The Giver (Lois Lowry, amazing YA novel) and a few other YA novels to get a feel for what the genre is looking for. (My NaNo novel this month is YA.)
  • Mike turned 24 — and old in my opinion — as of the 10th. Happy birthday, oldtimer. :D
  • I have three new poems I will post probably tomorrow. Thursday night put me in a poetry-writing mood. I think I like poetry now.
  • There’s something wrong with this theme, so I’m pretty sure that these bullets are going to be FUBAR when I post this. I think it’s time for me to develop my own damn theme. Heh.

I promise a real post soon!
