I woke up this morning and looked around and realized that my house was a mess and I had no groceries and no clean clothes. So today, I'm taking a much needed break from writing fanfic and from non-work related internet use...starting after I hit the post button ;).

The last chapter of RBTL stands as one of the least reviewed chapters currently but I don't mind. I really liked the way it came out. I'm annoyed that fanfiction.net's hit counter continues to be broken because I can't even tell if the view count is normal. What I have learned is that the readers like Charlie, Jasper's accent, and family stuff. Readers like Nessie and Bella chapters much less.

On the way to the grocery store, I realized that I have a one-shot that I wrote early on for RBTL that I can't use now so I'll probably go ahead and post it here later on in the week.

The excursion to the grocery store was a monster success. I usually have to go to Whole Foods to get all my weird organic vegan and gluten-free stuff but to my surprise, HEB had everything I needed and it's so so much cheaper than Whole Foods.

Now it's time to do some laundry and go for a run and, you know...put away the wrapping paper from Christmas.

You can tell I have the day off. I'll probably never again post twice in one day.

I just made oven baked sweet potato fries (yes...I am that Southern), black eyed peas (for luck), and tofu bites for a late lunch. It was so good. Now I'm pondering making some gluten-free cookies and pumpkin bread. I feel so off-kilter on these mid-week days off. All I can think about is the work I left unfinished yesterday. I think I am going to have to work some on Saturday to make up the time.

Every single time I post a new chapter on RBTL, I think about how much of a mistake it was to use songs for the chapter titles. I love music and I love the emotional punch that a song can give but choosing the songs to pair with each chapter can be such a headache. I know that some people enjoy the songs so it's worth it but...man it's tough. Also, the chapter titles aren't at all descriptive so even I can't remember which chapter is which. I chose to go with songs because I hate titling things so I thought it would be an easier device. It's not. /rant :)

Is it wrong to eat while watching The Biggest Loser? It feels wrong.

I think I'll be taking a break from the potential award winners to see Defiance tonight. I can't resist a good World War II movie (unless it has Tom Cruise in it...then I have no trouble all) and it has a pretty nice cast. I am not looking forward to seeing Doubt or The Wrestler but I feel like I have to. I wish I still lived near the independent theater here in Houston. It's so hard to see documentaries and foreign films now.

God, this post is pointless and now my icon has made me want to watch some Arrested Development.
