I'm not doing nano, right? But I'm trying to keep Nicky Browne company with her month of shorts. Unfortunately I'm sick as a dog.
So far this month I have fallen behind on my Bella and Chain updates (five days behind! but I've written some of what hasn't been posted) and on my months of two shorts a week.
I wrote the first one, starting last Thursday and ending last Saturday. (my schedule is Monday and Thursday) The second one, which was not, as I thought, the cheating thing of going back to a half-finished one and finishing it, but a brand new one, needs a couple hundred words to finish. The third one I should start today but I won't. I promised to take Gloria to the IMAX in San Jose and I'm going to try not to break my promise though I'm sick as a dog. Yesterday I had a nightmare time in San Francisco, lost my car keys, drove home in my dad's car and thank dog! Frank is living with us and unemployed because he's taking my dad's car back to the City today and bringing back my car while I drive the nice fellow's car to Watsonville and San Jose and stuff. And I've committed to spending Mondays in the City helping Rosemary with my father.
So I think I'll finish that story tomorrow, and I'll do my Thursday story on the weekend.
But, Emma? I did get some reeds. The Scottish ones were $15.50, and they seemed hard though the desk clerks didn't know for sure, and I only got two. The Pakistani reeds seemed softer and were only $3.00 but they were twisted looking and not symmetrical and there were only five to choose from so I got only the very best looking one. So you have three reeds to choose from. And I know why Jay wants to use only the ones from his friend in LA. I could really see the difference. Your old reed was much nicer, more symmetrical, with a more gradual taper and a neater wrapping thread. So if none of those reeds work I'll talk to Jay.
