I took a day...

...And ignored the world. Well, pretty much. I was ensconced in my bed under the covers, with a nice chill breeze going outside and window cracked enough to whistle at me, using my art board to prop my laptop on, when I think about getting a lap table. I check online, and Michaels has them for under $10.

So I hop up, shower (since I didn't, last night), and drive the 4 miles over there. And get one. Then I think about a nice back cushion like I used to have, years ago, and find that at a store next door. And now I'm home and re-ensconced in my bed using the table and my cushion and feeling very cozy. I even have a cup of tea on the night stand.

My ass is getting to be a bit sore, but everything else is great.

I'm pulling together information for a guy I know to work up a website for me. Got samples. Got suggestions. Got links to Smashwords and Ingram Distribution. And got my last book cover set for APoS-HNH. Just waiting on the Kirkus review...which won't show till June 19th, according to their site.

Tomorrow's laundry so I won't have a chance to repeat this till early afternoon, but I'm enjoying it. I've started a beef/vegetable soup on the stove that's at the point of simmering. It's a holiday weekend so there is nothing that needs to be done for Caladex...though I did update the anticipated cost of flying down to DC for another pickup and flying home. Not much change. Just waiting for the dates the client wants. Last word was, it'd be in August.

Something I neglected to do while out was get the makings for tacos. I may need to hop over to a grocery store, tomorrow, for that. We'll see.
