I finished the rewrites on "Stateline" today, a day before my set deadline.
I happily crossed it off my list and off my calendar before looking to see what I should be working on next.
Logically, my next project should be the rewrites on "In the Dark". I don't have it due until the 25th, but it will take me awhile. I've also got edits due next Friday on my last three stories.
Apparently, I had delusions of productivity when I made this schedule.
I know I can do this. The deadlines will keep me motivated and I've got too much of an ego to let myself fail, even if I'm the one setting the deadlines.
But, damn, sometimes I think I'm a masochist.
The whole point is so I can have everything that I've got written now(including two stories still rattling around in my head) polished and sent out somewhere for consideration by September because I'm pretty sure that come fall, I'm going to have to start hardcore looking for a day job again. I think I could job hunt a little easier knowing I was knocking on a few doors in the writing world.

Greetings folks, this is Crow here with my latest character, Goofy!
First of all, I'd like to give a hearty "thank you to all the wonderful folks who took the time to beta for me; you know who you are. Another hearty "thank you" goes out to all of you lovely voters, you're a great bunch of people! Also, a third "thank you" goes to Speed for the username idea!
Goofy's stats and permissions meme can be found at his journal!
Here's a srs poll: If your character could be in a Disney/Pixar movie, which movie would they be in?
MIAMI—Thousands have already fled the popularly dubbed "Hurricane That Shall Not Be Named," to escape its destructive winds and chilling impersonality.
"We can no longer ignore the facts — carbon dioxide is real," Bush said.
WASHINGTON, DC–According to a World Wildlife Fund study released Monday, stuffed-animal biodiversity is rapidly rising, with the number of species available in plush form up nearly 800 percent since 1990.
WASHINGTON, DC—Days after unveiling new power-plant pollution regulations that rely on an industry-favored market-trading approach to cutting mercury emissions, EPA Acting Administrator Stephen Johnson announced that the agency will remove the "E" and "P" from its name. "We're not really 'environmental' anymore, and we certainly aren't 'protecting' anything," Johnson said. "'The Agency' is a name that reflects our current agenda and encapsulates our new function as a government-funded body devoted to handling documents, scheduling meetings, and fielding phone calls." The change comes on the heels of the Department of Health and Human Services' January decision to shorten its name to the Department of Services.
COLLEGE STATION, TX–Texas A&M sophomore Bryan Datillo was jolted from a light sleep during a Botany 101 lecture Monday, when his professor, discussing the various methods by which experimental hybrid crops are developed, uttered the word "hydroponics." "I was kind of dozing off, but then I heard Professor Guyer say 'hydroponics,'" Datillo said. "I was like, 'Whoa! Now we're finally getting somewhere.' Unfortunately, he just said some boring shit about tomatoes, so I went back to sleep."
WASHINGTON, DC—A report released by the Union of Concerned Dietitians stated that not only will the temperature of coffee increase by nearly...

A recent survey indicated that bald eagles would soon be taken off the endangered-species list. What do you think?
If you had asked me three years ago if I was ever going to have a gardener, I probably would have thought you were out of your tree. Sure, I loved...
Joshua! Kylie! Help your father and me unload the minivan. You can take care of the lighter things, like the mini-cooler and the badminton net. Daddy will carry the poles. Take your beach towels, too, and don't forget that Ziploc bag with the sunscreen. I don't want you kids getting sunburns. They say the worst skin damage occurs when you're young. Joshua? Kylie? Why are you still in the van? You haven't even unbuckled your seatbelts. Let's go!
I have a sudden love/orgasm for Storm Hawks again. YAY for rediscovering my passion! But I really wish I got some new episodes. I should really email Asaph Fipke. I mean. His email thing is public :(.
IN OTHER NEWS, once upon a time, I wrote a letter to Tim Omundson (aka Lassiter on Psych) and I'm finally going to share this with the world.
For the record, I regret nothing.

Dearest dear Lassie-kins,
I know we've hit a couple of rough spots over the years, but hey, we're grown men and I think we worked out our differences like reasonable grown men who don't get uptight about ties (still think the red one was the better choice there) and I think it's time I popped the big question, the one many many people on the internet-land seem to be asking about.
Carlton Lassiter. Will you do me the honour of accepting my hand in marriage?
I know, I know, this feels like it's come completely out of the blue, but you can't deny the sexual tension! I mean, you really seem a little eager with the cuffing there. But hey, a man has his kinks and I accept you for what you are. And I feel that deep deep deep down, we have a connection. A bond that the spirits seem to be endorsing on. You got to love those spirits, they always seem to know what's up. So write back to me and tell me how you feel. Don't be shy, I know you're a huggable Care Bear inside. Embrace it. I'm here for you.
XOXO,
Shawn Spencer
PS: Even if you're the man of the house, I still expect you to do your bit of chores. Which may or may not include pineapple smoothies for lunch. And no late hours at the office or we'll miss our favourite spanish soap operas.
For the record, I regret nothing.

I come baring a small essay thing on Soul Eater's whole soul wavelength bit as well as cover Stein abilities since... fun stuff for fun times.
So if you think Stein will come to cut you and you said I was enabled, please check here and make doubly sure you want to keep that as a Y.
And so I'm not boring you all:
Srs poll: Your character(s) suddenly has a flavor. What do they taste like?

I AM APPARENTLY A HUGE SUPPORTER OF BAD IDEAS? One of my friends is engaged for possibly the third or fourth time in the past three or four years to some military guy. Tentative wedding date is next December, two days before my birthday; an eighteen-month engagement is nice, long enough for her to realize this is not a good plan, in fact it is not even really a decent plan. It is a highly dissatisfactory plan.
But guys. Guys.
Registering for wedding gifts is fuckin' awesome.
