Wednesday, Rants and Overreach

I'm getting things done by slow degrees. I'm trying to remain focussed on the things that need doing, but getting distracted by the things I'm having fun doing.

Same old same old.

Remembered the email system with MeMum. Forgor I was driving Mayhem to work this morning.

I'm sure it's stress.

I have the flash fiction to write today, the Archive fic to at least try to concoct, and a rant about something to think up and consequently write.

And I am having a hard time focussing on anything. Including finishing and posting this.

At least the bread will be started off.

Tuesday, Patreon, Birthday, and PLN'ing Skills

It's my Beloved's birthday today. We have a dinner planned to celebrate the day.

I have a collab to work on, the daily tale, the thing for Promptcast, the thing for the Archive, and technically three fanfics in the works.

I will be posting things whenever I can, but ability to can might just be out of my reach. My collab partner and I can get distracted by the drop of a topic.

While we're yatting on down rabbit holes, I shall

Wednesday, Change of PLNs

I have finished working on the Promptcast thing. Or finished to my satisfaction about it. And it has occurred to me that the Promptcast stuff is exactly what Scrivener was made for. So I might transfer my extant shit from the GoogDoc to that and buy the damn program.

I'll try playing with that anyway. It's a small file so far. And I think I still have the free trial on.

Temporal awareness is my achilles' heel.

Turns out I can move

Tuesday, Optometrist, Patreon, and So On

I'm getting my eyes checked today, and I've already packed an old set of frames in case my lenses need an upgrade. Huzzah.

I owe some stuff to Patreon, though I still don't have a terrible lot. I should throw myself at making Kdenlive work again.

The experiment with the videos should get back online. It's just a matter of having the emotional and intellectual wherewithall to hit that shit with a hammer.

The current chapter of ADT is fighting me a

Wednesday, Catching Up on Nonsense

I have begun prepping the pitch kits for A Devil's Tale book one. No point in pitching the rest of the six if I can't flog the other five.

I have some blurbs to brew up and the rest of it is lined up. Having a checksheet really helps get things together. Yay.

In a few hours, I'll have to put on some clothes because I am at last getting my preventer prescription. Hooray. I can also get supplies along the way.

Thursday, Physio and Busy-o

Physio was the easy part. Part of my PLN was to get Tessa her Over 18 card and - yikes. She forgot one important piece of the 100 points of ID.

So I had to go back home [getting eggs on the way], re-fill out the form because I had shit wrong, drive all the heck way back out to the place, wait even more time for a number to be called... and finally set the dominoes into place to get the

Wednesday, Rant Stuff and Bread

Once again, I am juggling many things. Why do I do this to myself and how can I slow it down a smidge? Asking for a true friend/own enemy.

I have bread going. I have a rant due. I have a mentee's story to help edit. And at least I've posted the video over in Peertube. Yay there.

And of course the periodic interruption of my stupid ankle being a little bitch. It's decided it doesn't like me standing on one

Thursday, Missions to Accomplish

I have to keep an eye on the time so I can take off with adequate minutes to make it to my physio. And from there on a brief expedition for stuff and things.

Very few stuff and things, thank grop. Things I can easily afford even if payday is a smidge tardy. Yay. With even space for a little treato for the trip home.

Huzzah.

I shall be attempting to write today's tale in the time I have left.

Wish me

Friday, Big Shopping Day

I have my knees on, I have my ankle brace on, I have a long, long journey to several stops ahead. We're out of all kinds of things and my poor little TARDIS car is going to be PACKED.

And I am going to be exhausted.

My story will be happening sometime this afternoon, because all the shops will be opening shortly.

Meanwhile, check my Peertube for one of the archival ones. Read for you by yours truly.

Wednesday, Recording Wahey

Technically, I am very productive today. I have caught up with video production. I've written another half a chapter [at something close to 1AM]. I have five chapters to read for Adorable, the daily offerings, the rant, and maybe some free time for myself yet to do.

I now have an invidious account by which to avoid giving metrics to YouTube. As far as they're concerned, I'm just not there any more.

The next step is waiting for my world-class unfuckerer sorting

Tuesday, Patreon, Videos, and Further PLNs

I have found a way to watch YouTube without giving them activity. Huzzah.

The process is currently hitting a few snags, but I am firkin DETERMINED to get this done. If it takes me all day, it takes me all day.

So far, since 2AM: I have written half a chapter, fed the cats [the most important part of my day - ask the cats], got my brekkie, took my meds, and posted my Patreon stuff. Huzzah!

Something that includes a fanfic

Sunday, Enacting PLNs

I have a means to watch my fave TubeTubers without setting off the All Hallowed Algorithm or making it look like I'm still watching YouTube. There's jiggery-pokery involved, of course, but it's better than bowing to the wowsers.

I have written my story for the Archive, and I should at least think about my "leaving YouTube manifesto" and maybe a reply to the "change your PFP to Clippy" thing. I need scripts or I'll ramble. It needs to be brief and snappy.
