IN WHICH I FALL FURTHER BEHIND THE TIMES

I have not seen Legend Of Everfree. I probably won't get the opportunity to see it for quite some time due to stuff happening IRL. I've heard that Sunset gets shafted out of the main character position by Twilight yet again, so I'm not exactly chomping at the bit to see it.

IN WHICH VICTORY IS CLOSE BUT NOT

Well, I think I'm almost finished with my Dazzlings story. In terms of quality, it could be the worst story I've ever written, maybe not worth the effort I put into it, especially considering its shortness, but it's one I really wanted to do. It's been quite a challenge too. Nearly every line of dialog has a music reference. Except from Aria. I almost feel bad for her, because her "sisters" are nuts.

IN WHICH A CONCLUSION ELUDES ME

I did not expect to finish a Mayor Mare story before the Dazzlings story I've been working on for longer, but them's the breaks sometimes. In terms of writing, the Dazzlings story is more complex, though it doesn't seem like it. Most of that is the frankly absurd number of music references woven into the dialogue, but the rest is that I have no idea how to conclude it.

IN WHICH I FAIL AT RESOLUTION
Consider this my additional thoughts on the latest installment of Mayor's Break Time, because I'm not concise enough to fit stuff into an afterword.

IN WHICH I GET OLDER

It's my birthday, and I'm… getting drunker. Actually, I haven't started imbibing yet, because I want to still be able to type. If you know the reference I just made, you get a cookie. I want cookies. I've had a serious craving for cookies for the past week or so. Not really sure why. More thoughts below the jump because I apparently can't keep this post to two paragraphs and I don't want to clog your feed.

IN WHICH I ACCOMPLISHED SOMETHING

To the two of you reading this, let me just cut to the chase -- when I said I was working on more short stories for this site, I meant it. In fact, there's two I've been writing, working on one or the other depending on what sort of mood I was in. Tonight, I have finished the first of those stories: a new instalment of Mayor's Break Time!

IN WHICH I'M STILL SICK

As you might have guessed from the header, I still feel like crap. It could be strepthroat or just a basic crud bug. Given that I've got sinus issues too, it's probably not strep. I've been lethargic all week, which is unfortunate because this is probably the one week I can't afford to be out of commission. Yet I am. And I feel like I'm letting everyone IRL down. Well, more likely it's next week where I really can't be out of it.

IN WHICH I AM SICK

So I've been achy for the last couple of days and have had trouble breathing. I rarely get sick, so this is unusual. It's also unusual because I'm a hypochondriac who actively avoids areas with lots of people, so I'm not sure where I got infected. I blame the fact that classes have just started here – I live in a college town with a lot of out-of-state kids and my home is next to an elementary school; both groups are massive disease vectors.
