Steady As She Goes

[the_gneech]

It's a sad fact of human nature that the more days there are on a weekend, the shorter it seems to be. Here it is Monday already and I haven't finished everything I wanted to do by Saturday night! But it's okay. One major reason that I didn't get as much done as I'd intended was that on Saturday lythandra and I went out and did a boatload of shopping, including a trip to the McKay's Used Books that netted me four big volumes of stories reprinted from Weird Tales at $.50 - $1.00 each. Score!

(Speaking of which, I haven't seen Weird Tales lately. Did it go out of business again?)

Anyway, for the moment at least it looks like work has calmed down, I don't have any (working) cons bearing down on me, there are no family activities planned in the foreseeable future, and our major home projects (that I know of, at least) are done until autumn.

THANK YOU, POWERS THAT BE! Please continue this happy trend for as long as possible!

For you see, this means that hopefully I can stop treading water and start making progress again. I have a commission that's been getting shoved aside since last year sometime that I really wanted to finish before AC but couldn't. A surprise project due this week popped up over the weekend. Both strips need attention. And gaming would be a nice change! There's also the fact that I haven't had any proper exercise for months — it's only the fact that my eating habits have shrunk drastically lately that's kept me from gaining weight.

All of these things are evidence of a Gneech with too many plates spinning in the air. So if life finally sits down and shuts up for a while, maybe I can get out from under it all! I sure hope so.

I'm hoping that the next several months are going to be more free of complications than the last few. oy.

On the weight loss front, i've been continuing on my "stress yourself to fitness" campaign. I've gotten very little exercize in the last few months, and with all the travel, i've been eating out far too often. Somehow, i've still managed to drop about ten pounds since sometime in may. Strange. After all that, i'd expect to be looking at a change in pants size, i just didn't expect it to go *down*.

Yay on gaming, looking forward to it.

I seem to have opted for a more radical weight loss program. The less digestive organs one has, the quicker one loses weight. ;P -Frisk
