I apologize for the fact that it has been so long since I have posted. Not that, I am sure, anyone has noticed. The holiday’s really snuck up on me, making my life real crazy for a few weeks.
My Christmas went better than my Thanksgiving, thankfully. I got some really cool gifts and no one acted a fool, well at least not while I was around.
I walked out on my job for like a day and a half. I went back, of course. The way this economy is, I could not afford to simply quit my job without having another one lined up. Things have gone better since then. I have actually enjoyed going into work. I used to dread it.
My fiancĂ© and I split up and got back together all in one night. I may have mentioned this already. It was over something kind of serious, but for right now not something I really want to worry about. The funny part about it all is that my best friend and her husband did the same thing this past week, except they were apart for a few days. It was her husband’s fault, of course. I am not just saying that because she is my friend, it really was. I love her husband, because she loves him, but he is something else sometimes.
My little sister’s ex-husband, also, decided it was time to pull some BS. Not that it will get him anywhere, he has been trying since my nephew was like three years old to take him away from her, and it never works. My sister is a wonderful mother; there isn’t a judge in this country that would take her kids from her.
I went to see Twilight again. I am so very sad. I have also started rereading the books.
I am reading Duma Key, stories from Skeleton Crew, and the first book in the True Blood series called Dead until Dawn. Yes, I can really read that many books at once and keep up. I tend to forget to take books with me wherever I go, so I have them dispersed everywhere. I have two by my bedside, one in my bathroom, and one at my fiancĂ©’s house. I also keep a collection of audio books at work to listen to. I bore easily, I guess.
I am having issues with my classes. I received a letter stating that I had too many undergrad classes, without having a degree. The kicker is that I have a degree. I thought I had is set up to where I would be working on two different degrees at once, but whatever. I went ahead and dropped my two undergrad classes, so I only have one class this semester.
I am fine with that because since November I have been working almost non-stop on a few novels. One is over 70 thousand words and is nearly ready for editing. The other is technically a trilogy. I am not very far along in it right this second, but it is coming along nicely. Having the break should give me time to work on them.
My short story, the one that I have in circulation, still has not been picked up, but I am not discouraged. I have not gotten any bad reviews. I am taking that as a good sign. I was told that if the story is bad they usually tell you. If I was mislead, than oh well. I am still not worried. I like the story. Everyone I know liked the story. That is all that counts, right.
