What in the hell did I do with it?

You know you're getting older when you misplace expensive software.

I still can't find the double dammed Corel Paintshop CD. I have no idea what I did with it. This is seriously starting to harsh my mellow.

Update: I just realized that you also know you're getting older when you use phrases like "harsh my mellow." Sigh

    "Harsh my mellow." I like it. :)

    Also - how's the writing going so far?

    When I was a teenager, "Harshing my mellow" was a common phrase. Guess when that was.

    The writing is going quit well, thank you. So far this morning I updated my ZEN library, taken two dozen pictures of my bowls, and right now I'm putting the finishing touches on a Demotivational Poster (which will be up on the site in a minute). I think this is called the "Scalzi Method" of writing.

    Actually I've got a full outline completed, and about about 2000 words on 'paper.' So, you know, it's coming along. How's your project coming?

    Mine's at 3576 words at the moment, middle of chapter 4 (yes, they're very short chapters). And I expect my apartment will become much cleaner over the course of this month. :)

    Just revised the main character. I was stuck there for a while and realized that I'd made a rookie mistake - the protagonist had a background I wasn't qualified to write about. So I changed him, now it works. And it made the story much more interesting in the process. Now I'm back on track and moving along.
