1. I had to share my seat on the bus ride home with a man who was farting continuously. Not your average, human grade farts. Deadly, terminal illness kinds of farts, where I was so convinced his intestines had liquefied and started leaking out his ass, I actually checked the seat a couple of times.
2. Word decided to protest the fact that I was working on someone else's writing and promptly shit itself while I was critiquing JP Davis's short story. The majority of my comments disappeared. When I tried to delete them to start again, Word started eating portions of the remaining comments' text. Awesome! I look forward to starting over tomorrow morning. Luckily the story is very, very cool so an extra read through or two will be a pleasure.
3. Gas price at the pumps in my town: $1.95. Gas price at the pumps one town over: $1.69. WTF??
4. During the first round of revisions, I cut my draft by about 12,000 words. I'm proud of the cutting, but not of the original sloppy writing. It was a great learning experience, though. Hopefully my next WIP will be written tighter on the first draft. I'm sure 5,000 of those were the word 'that.' *facepalm*
5. Speaking of the next WIP, I might have started working on a short story today. Not words, because I'm on break *glares at Brain*, but plotting and research. You know. Maybe. o_O
