phynckeI think I am just about ready to submit my SV story. I have resolved the little issue it had and thanks to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
khylea's sound beta, I think it is a good story. A very different one for me and not a character that I am comfortable with but that is why I like challenges - it gets me writing outside my zone. I had fun with the research for this and learned new wrinkles on Tolkien. I really love that about writing in the fandom - always more to know and figure out.
I got some things done today - my never ending laundry. Second trip to the launderama this week. I have to go one more time tomorrow to finish everything. Mainly because I don't want to strain my back lifting heavy bags. So I break it up. I also have comforters, rugs and sheets to do this week. More.
Work is going well - setting the stage for events late in the semester. I have a big event the end of February - high stakes and one with the Chancellor and donors etc. That has to go well. Then later in the Spring I have a NYC event with a Nobel Laureate - also pressurized. These are the things that keep my job interesting. Then little things pop up - Competitions, Monthly Staff Meetings and other stuff. I am glad to be busy. I would be out of a job if I weren't.
My promotion went in and I am waiting to hear about that. Keep your fingers crossed for me. I am hoping to get a significant raise with this.
Tomorrow I think I am doing chores and then going out to the movies at night (Man on a Ledge).
Anyhoo. That is it from here. Cheers to you and yours!
