Booyah. Only two weeks late, but I got me a final draft. A little more polishing, a little more having people rip it to shreds and despair over its wreck of a body only to buck up and fix what needs to be fixed, and it'll be an actual manuscript. And then I find out whether or not I've actually matured enough as a writer to be out there submitting. If not, I'll despair a bit but eventually just keep writing.

So I should also be around a bit more now. Hi! How have you been? I've been swell. It's hot here. I'm not drinking more than a cup of tea a day and after a week of this, I'm finally not trying to bite people's heads off and/or fall asleep wherever/whenever.

I've also found out that the agency I am working with is suddenly one agent short and she who left was the fiction agent with whom I was working the most. I am... pretty sad. Past upset. I was upset. Because she still hasn't told me herself. I found out through twitter, of all things, then managed to confirm it on her website. Really? You're going to update your website and twitter before telling your intern? I has a sad.

Of course, the opportunist in me jumped at the idea, because that means a position is potentially open. But then again, I haven't worked very much or closely with the remaining agent, so I'm not sure if she'd even want to keep me on, or if she'd rather just scale down everything. Either way, there goes my hope for employment at the agency, pretty much. :<

This weekend was good, though, so I'm going to focus on that instead of the sad. D&D on Saturday (yes, I'm finally a proper geek) which went on for a good, geektastic six hours. I still get bogged down in all the rolling and mechanics, and then forget about loot entirely, but it's still fun. Then there was delicious vegan food with the_verb and early-morning hiking with malanai and her beau, and then fourth episode of DW watching, and then naps, and then coffee with the_verb (or tea, for my part), and then making of lasagna and then dinner with wine and lasagna and then passing out. Very full weekend.

And now tonight... wow. What to do with a night off? I don't even know.
