When the Husband’s Away

I work. I also play, just not very much.

THE DAY

So the husband jetted off this morning at 5:30.  I lay there about another forty minutes and then decided, screw it, I’m up.

Been working steadily for the last few days, which is why I’m so quiet.  What I have to say, I put on the page 😉  I wish I could say that things are going FAST.  They’re going the way they have to go, I think.  Best I can do.

I’d also intended to work this evening but got sidetracked with a friend.  Just got back about a half hour ago; snarked some dinner; and now going to bed so I can do this again tomorrow.  I know what needs to be done; just got to screw the butt into the chair.

What I’m Reading:
Still on Firestarter.  It’s okay.

What I’m Listening to:
Started The Shut Eye and I just couldn’t stomach listening to the woman pining away for her son.  I know; that’s awful of me; I should be more sympathetic.  But I couldn’t dredge up any.  I might come back to the book; I might not. We’ll see.  Went back to Wayward instead, which isn’t bad.  My problem is that I know this trilogy, but I’m at a loss for a decent listen after Extreme Prey.  I’ll find something.

What I’m Watching:
A couple of Whos  over the last two days, though nothing today because I swam.  Finally got a little Who’ed out by some not so wonderful episodes and started in on The Last Ship‘s third season…but what the hell did they do to the show I liked?  My GAWD, without Rachel Scott, it’s like the dialogue is lame and the whole let’s give the captain another cutie doesn’t work for me.  Lame.  This had better improve; I paid for this season.  That’ll teach me.
