I forgot what I have to do on Monday - take Mayhem to the train so he could go to work. I keep drifting off to sleep at random moments despite my being well rested.
I'm working on finishing a chapter, today. Working on my normal nonsense. Figuring out what the living fuck has gone wrong with Kdenlive this time to make the subtitles fuck up.
That's going to be an ongoing thing, I am sure.
Meanwhile, I can at least provide stories.
If I can stay on track that long.
I have a story to read for tomorrow's video. I have five chapters to read so that (maybe) Adorable can hear them. So far, efforts had not been great.
I'm recording on schedule today...
I got interrupted by an errand to take machinery and bits to Beloved, and I got a couple more chapters read for her. Yay.
So now I get on with my offerings and video read at minimum. If I can, I'll get the latest five chapters recorded
Read more »I'm 53 today, and at some point, I must acquire cake. I may even have to ferry the kids around so they can get me bifdy presents.
I have the offerings to do and I might just pitch Adapting to the one agency that's speed-run rejecting my stuff. If any day is the day to be brave about things, it's today.
I did have a thought to bullshitting up a cover for the All Hallows' Read story I've got completed, but... I

My bad habits are continuing. I need a minder.
At least I got my offerings out and about, a little late if not on time. And I'll have the time to mess about with the free trial of Scrivener. Seeing what I can do on the free model before I invest my limited coin in

So I had to go back home [getting eggs on the way], re-fill out the form because I had shit wrong, drive all the heck way back out to the place, wait even more time for a number to be called... and finally set the dominoes into place to get the

I have bread going. I have a rant due. I have a mentee's story to help edit. And at least I've posted the video over in Peertube. Yay there.
And of course the periodic interruption of my stupid ankle being a little bitch. It's decided it doesn't like me standing on one
Read more »I'm posting the video tomorrow. I'm working on bread today, tomorrow, and doing a final bake on Thursday. Yay.
In a few minutes, I'll start working on my offerings for the interwebs.
I've got the starter in the incubator and the first batch of ingredients weighed and waiting. I'm going to have to reserve some hours for cleaning the gluck off/out of my keyboard. Now that I know how to use the keypick, I can do that.
I now have a

I just spent a majority of my day shopping so I might not get the video done.
And I have to go to the quacks to get a prescription for my preventer. Because my extant scrip expired. Yay. Not. Unfun stuff.
I'll try all the same.
Stories first. After

Procrastination regarding the list just means more list.
Kind'a like a lot of my problems, if I think about it too hard. And I try not to because of the headaches I get if I do.
The story and video stuff will be happening after the fix-a-thon. Whenever that

Of course I'm going to record my first play for Peertube. I might even use a few plays for B-roll on my story reads.
I'm still babying my ankle and swearing my way through my knee stretchies in the morning. Trust me folks, start your body maintenance when you're young. It's worse than a bitch to build it back up again.
At least there's some notable
Read more »I'm looking for assistance from other authors with the secondary All Hallows' Read story that I've managed to produce. I'm trying not to feel the clock ticking at this point.
I don't have to release this thing this year. I can get it perfected, construct the cover, and have it all lined up for next year.
I've got today's Peertube video out. Yay. I've had my dosages. Hooray. I've done my stretchies and cooled off my ankle.
I'm struggling with all other
Read more »I have a video to prepare now so I don't have to rush tomorrow. I have half-hour breaks every two hours to get my dumb injured ankle to literally chill out.
I'm using that time for other creative things on my lappy.
I have the usual nonsense to create for the temple of notes. And the hope of having spare time to enjoy some things.
As for my knee stretchies, I am repeating, "Progress is not linear" like it's a mantra. Translation
Read more »I just posted today's Peertube video, I think I might rant about technology this week. Old fool yells at cloud. Again. Maybe when remember-when-tech-was-good palaver.
Slop and mush and reheated rebooted, revamped retro nostalgia. New ideas are scary.
I could have a go at how relative "fire bad" attitudes are.
Just looked up the quote. It's "Technology bad, fire scary, Thomas Edison was a witch." So I'll paraphrase if I get there.
But first - the fiction.

I have months in which to improve my knees' ability to withstand bending and walking.
I will get there. It's just going to take a bit of a while.
Another concern is that I've started needing the bracer on my right knee again. I'll talk about it with my

Currently enjoying breakfast and waiting for Mayhem to stir himself for the drive towards work.
Soon, the backup reads, the daily shenanigans, and getting the video ready to post because my stupid ass forgot to make it yesterday.
Doing what I can how I can and hoping to heck I have the spoons in order to do it.
...yay
