On the 7th Day, the Cat Rested...

*sound of crickets*

Er, sorry for the blog lapse. Had to finish a story for Philippine Genre Stories' deadline last Friday. As usual, I wrote 'the end' by 11:30 p.m. then rushed out to email it ASAP. Life as a writer's quite grand... except for those looming deadlines.

So, what have you people been up to? Me, I had a sinus headache Sunday afternoon, popped a pill and took a nap (or is that took a pill and popped a nap?), waking up around 2 a.m. Oy vey, where did the time go?

P.S. No, I'm joining the NaNoWriMo this year. Are you crazy? I'd like to sleep a little this month, if that's possible.

P.P.S. Does anyone know how to light a fire under the asses of the people at PLDT's MyDSL internet service? We've had zero internet at home for almost a month now but still no sign of their technical support. Frankly, I've gotten tired threatening them of quitting their service just so'd they listen to me.

Kitties need rest, especially when sinus headaches are involved. Kind of hard to believe NaNoWriMo has come around again, isn't it? Seems like it was just a few months ago!

bc: yup, finished the story i'd meant to send pgs, but decided to send them a different one. pgs have that one now, the new one's now out in the world, waiting to collect the usual round of rejections.

so now it's back to all the other stuff i'm working on.

i signed up for NaNoWriMo, but haven't yet gotten around to doing anything about it.

Hi banzai cat. Sent you an email. Have you received it?

banzai cat said...

Wow, seven comments for seven days!

Seriously...

stg: Yeah, tell me about it. So how'dya managed not to throw in the towel. I'm at my wit's end with these idiots.

fuhrer: Hah. Post-classes reaction?

livewire: Oooh, that's a definite yes. But I figure I practice my writing with short stories first before taking a bit with the big one.

Unfortunately, my sinus is not my friend.

skinny: Yowza, you signed up with NaNoWriMo? Good luck on that, as well with the story doing the rounds. Seems like you're somewhat inspired now. :-D

pgenre: Done! Hope you got my response. :-)

You haven't been taking your medication for those voices in your head, have you? :-D
