THE DAY
It’s really late, and I need to get to bed, but I was bound and determined to finish this damn section so I could move on. Got interrupted several times and then there was an evening thing I promised to attend. Came back, cranked some more.
Also had a fairly unpleasant interaction with a pro friend who reamed me out. I understand that friend’s POV, I really do. BUt I think that, sometimes, email makes it way too easy for people to vent, click, and send. Actually . . . I was really hurt. Like, wondering what I did wrong. Then I figured, you know, it’s not me; I don’t know what’s going on at the other end; the friend did come back later and make some suggestions. Didn’t apologize or anything–that’s not this person’s style, per se–but at least there was another email.
So maybe my friend had a bad day. We all have them. Let it go.
Anyway, I did it. Finished the section. I don’t anticipate coming back tomorrow but moving on.

What I’m Watching:
Skipped strength training today because I was running late and furiously writing. Got 90 minutes of aerobics in, though, and two more episodes of The Astronaut Wives Club. I’m really starting to enjoy this.

Are you kidding? It’s late. I’m weary. I’m going to bed.
