• 08:10 Momentarily sidetracked by teh intrawebs. Will focus on fiction sub, now--my first in how long?? #submissions #
• 09:00 Preparing incense and a small sacrifice to the critique group hive-mind for help with my contest sub. #submissions #
• 11:46 "Pulling Mussels (From the Shell)" by Squeeze & "Mighty Love" by the Spinners in my brain simultaneously. Dichotomy is giving me a headache. #
• 12:37 "Time just crawls here behind my eyes..." #lyrics #
• 12:41 That was the first song in my head all day that wasn't 80s New Wave or 70s R&B. I blame caffeine. #
• 13:23 Forgot my skoolbooks at my desk. Maybe it's my subconscious telling me to have lunch in relative peace again? :) #
• 14:40 Okay, tonight I've *got* to get the study-ball rolling. T-minus 8 days to final! #
• 16:44 *sigh* I can see the last-minute work emergency coming a mile away... #
• 16:53 "Failure to plan on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine," huh? Oh, if only... if only... #

• 19:44 Forcing myself to sit with the skoolbooks open. Nothing, yet. I'll be breaking out the Red Bull shortly. #
• 21:10 zomg! Meat Loaf concert doco on TV. The haircut I get. Going without the disheveled tux/cloak...? Just not the same. #
