Monday Morning Reset Button

It appears that it’ll be a chilly Labor Day out here by Chicago, which is fine by me, as I’ll be working today, anyway (gotta get that sweet, sweet holiday pay). Yesterday was gorgeous, though, the perfect day to finally make it out to one of my favorite places ever, the Bristol Renaissance Faire, right…

I had every intention in the world of getting a post up yesterday. I had the whole day off, so I figured there was no excuse to not get it finished, but, it would seem, my computer had different ideas. When I bought this laptop about a year ago, I bought it because it was…

Have you ever had a week that just sort of feels like a bust? I know I’m my own harshest critic, but I definitely feel like I’ve had one of those weeks. It really wasn’t all that bad, though, which is why I do these Monday reset posts. It forces me to look at empirical…

I really am a workaholic. I’ve come to accept and sometimes embrace this. Last week really felt like some good evidence of this. Last week, I had worked eight days in a row, and those eight days were probably some of my most productive days in recent memory. Still not as productive as I would…

Well, I’m about to enter the second half of my long eight-day work streak, so the past four days have been a little bit of a blur (having a shark-related “Big Damn Event” in Fandom High didn’t help, either). So things have been a little whirlwindy for me this past week, and it’s still a…

Tomorrow is August. That’s so crazy to me, how did we get here so fast? But time is funny like that, especially when you start living your life with a pretty set routine day to day, so that it all just kind of blurs by you like cars on the highway. August is pretty big…

Man, it’s been an interesting week, if you couldn’t tell by the fact that my usual Monday Morning Reset post didn’t actually go up yesterday. I had actually forgotten that it was Monday, while actively knowing perfectly well it was Monday. It was weird, but, in my defense, last week was definitely a little more…

Here we are, another bright shining Monday! My week hasn’t been too terribly crazy, but, for some reason, the renewal feeling to the start of this week feels especially potent right now. I think it’s just because I know I slacked off a lot yesterday (sucked into several round of Age of Empires), but I’ve…

Oof, it’s been an interesting week it’s been. Between all my usual writing, reading, and working things, I’ve also had a visit with my brother and his family and a major mega sinus attack. The sinus attack is still lingering, although it’s a bit improved. Bright light still hurts like the dickens, but, thankfully, Mother…

I still can’t believe it’s already July. We’re more than half way done with the year, and I can’t believe how much crap I haven’t be doing. Top of the list: getting Fearless ready for print. The draft is finished, I just haven’t had the time to focus on getting it typed up and doing…
