So I seem to have left the jump drive that has the most current work on it at Gloria's house. Do I:
-- drive out to Gloria's to retrieve it? -- that's an hour of driving and at least an hour of extricating myself, and I have four hours till I have to be in Capitola testing water quality.
-- find something else to work on?
-- resign myself to no writing today, and clean the kitchen?
-- obsessively poke away at puzzles?
-- obsessively make the rounds of other people's online writing?
-- try to figure out where to send The Conduit? And/or other things that are currently not out?
So far, it's been the puzzles. This is me telling myself to get to fucking work in some way or another.
This is not leavened by the presence of extra people in the house and the nice fellow coming home early and telling me about Mel Gibson spewing anti-Semitic garbage during a DUI arrest. I never liked the guy even before he made the movie that inspired my students to tell me I killed Christ.
Nor by the Middle East analysis my favorite archaeologist gave me yesterday, which I'm not going to go into now because I Really Am Going To Just Open Up a Fucking File At Random And Work On It.
