Lucky, lucky, lucky.
Well, except that while updating my page at MySpace this morning and checking out the page of someone who wanted to be my friend (Yes, I screen. God forbid I befriend some radical hate group), I contracted a virus. Well, not me, but my laptop. Luckily, my virus scan caught and deleted it but grrrr. Okay. Letting that go.
I'm leaving you now to get more bean juice and to attack the source of my anxiety, a pesky thing that goes by the initials WIP. I'm not sure when I'll be back, but I promise you it won't be to whine. *g*
"Whine to some of your pals--or your family if you need it. Then stop feeling sorry for yourself and sit down and do the job. Wear your pajamas and think about the poor bastards on the interstate sitting in traffic." ~~Nora Roberts (Writers on Writing, August 2006 Romance Writers Report)

Love that Nora Roberts quote!
*hugs* regarding the virus. That sucks. People who come up with those need to be horeswhipped.
Great quote! And great attitude! I hope, though, that some day you'll have more free time and a little less hectic schedule!
I really don't get the virus thing. It's not like they can see you frustration. Wierd.
Whine to me anytime, B. That's part of my job description as friend and critique partner. Then get back into the Elvis pajamas and get back to writing. You can do it!
Hi all! Glad you enjoyed the quote. I have that Nora interview on my desk as it is full of great advice.
Barb, I don't get virus thing either. It's just obnoxious. And sometimes evil.
Mary, my whine is bottled for now--heh! But, be warned, I'm 12 pages behind my per day goal, meaning today, I'd have to write 17 pages to catch up. In other words, some 'whine' may be coming your way. If you were here, I'd provide the chees too. :)
