I keep having to stop myself from doing all the little things I used to have to do when the internet was slow - like closing tabs all the time and expecting long wait times. It's glorious and I'm still giddy. (Probably won't be as giddy when I see the CC bill for all this, but... :shrug: It'll be worth it in the long run.) Yesterday, after we aligned the dish, we were pulling over 300mbps. WOOT. If any of you friends of mine want an invite to Starlink, shoot me an email. (If I don't know you, sorry, but I'm not inviting strangers all higgledy-piggledy.) If you use an invite from me, you get a month free and so do I.
I'm still humpin' and stumpin' on the marketing thing. Accidental Death is my best moving book so far this year. With two days still left on this freebie offering, I've already moved 145.49 copies. Woot. Would that they were all pay sales and not freebies, but hey, beggars can't afford to be choosy.
Yeah, I've been distracted and depressed and under the weather, which are all awesome excuses for not getting any work done. I need to cut that shit out. Pull up my big girl britches and get back to work.
Finn is being a bad boy and getting on the kitchen counter - something he hasn't done since he was a kitten. I need to put the fear of god into him, but he always looks so offended when I scold him and he's so cute, it's hard to do. I think he knows this and that's like carte blanche to be naughty. I swear these cats are like Pinky and the Brain from Animaniacs. (If you don't know who that is, here's a link to their theme song.) Finn is, of course, the Brain. A criminal mastermind if ever there was one. I know he's the one who knocked the cough-syrup cup off the counter, even if Sawyer was the one playing with it when I woke up.
Off-brand Delsym tastes like crap. Orange, my ass.
I need a new day planner for 2025. I just keep forgetting to get one. Derp.
Okay, I think that's about it for today. Have a great one out there wherever you are!
Speaking of getting distracted, at your mention of AD, I headed to X to strengthen the signal, fell down that rabbit hole, then realized I needed to get to Wallyworld but fell down another rabbit hole in searching for a Christmas sweatshirt that I hadn't seen in ages and ended up clearing all the junk off my cedar chest and then the clothes inside. I have a HUGE load of sweathers that no longer fit to go to the thrift shop. Yay.
ReplyDeleteAlso, still doing the whole Snoopy dance thing for your upscaled internet. Soooo happy for you! Yayayay! Now get back in the habit of bouncing around the web because I enjoy seeing you in the places we both visit.
Speaking of cats, Pete has decided that he is truly Petroniua the Arbitor because now HE decides when I should get my @$$ out of bed in the morning. He comes and sits on me and stares. You know what that's like--the staring I mean. 🙄
I've given up trying to work. I'm taking the holidays off. Unless the writing bug bites me or something. Things are just too much up in the air at the moment with stressors and weirdness and just...stuff. Nothing bad, just...stuff.
Okay, I guess I should get up and finally put away the laundry I did Monday. Hang in there! Later, tater.
