Minor league challenges—and some good things, too

[pjthompson]

It's been a challenging couple of weeks—but all petty stuff. Elsewhere on my flist and in the wider world, real and heartbreaking challenges have been happening. But the minor league stuff has eaten up my time and made me distracted.

My petty list: Unanticipated events, scheduling kerfluffles, misunderstandings, annoying narcissists, I've been sick twice (including today), and there have been major and minor pet mishaps.

The good things: Undie's doing much better. Now that the nasty infection's on its way out, she's been rolling onto her back and making coy burbles in order to get scritches. It's nice to see her feeling better.

And I finished chapter 40 of Night Warrior yesterday. Chapter 40 is the last chapter of the book. It's all over except the epilogue(s), my friends. I'm not giddy yet, because I've got to tie up the loose strings for three timelines in that (those) epilogue(s), and I had to fight hard for every damned sentence of chapter 40. The epilogue(s) is (are) already partially written (I've been anticipation writing for weeks now), but I don't want to get cocky. It'll be done when it's done.

And then I'll get giddy.

Watch this space for whoops and chortles. ☺☻☺☻
