1. Lately when I check my spam trapper (Postini, via my webhost) there's either practically nothing (only three today) or a flood. Why?

2. I was being driven to Hertz this afternoon (after someone assumed I would be running a stale yellow light and was unprepared for me actually stopping -- he, one supposes, intended to run the red one) by a nice young woman who is an artist and is working 60-70 hours a week at her day job. Basically, she has the wrong day job since she does not love it. If you have a creative passion such as writing or art or what have you, and life does not provide you with a trust fund or some other circumstance that allows you not to have a day job, then it is my belief and observation that it's best for the day job to be one that doesn't suck up your real-life. I actually think that's true no matter what, but particularly for the artistic.

3. I like the color gray. I think that means I'm mentally unbalanced. I also like green, but I like gray best.

4. MySpace is a really neat place to meet people. Who'd have thought? I really didn't expect to have some really nice exchanges with people, but I have. I've found people who love to read (yay!) and want to talk about what they read and some fantastic music.

5. The middle of Magellan's Witch is boring. I have two chapters in the wrong POV and I'm hoping that fixing that will fix the boringness. There's exciting stuff going on, only it's boring. Because it's in the wrong Point of View.

6. Today, I observed that someone took it upon themselves to wash my sheepskin slippers for me, which was very nice, only they weren't dry when they were replaced in their usual spot. Damp wool is unpleasant for one's feet.

Anyway, now I need to stop procrastinating and actually get some work done.
