1) Write this blog (includes helping Banjo and Bubble write their reviews and monkeying around with files and finding pictures).
2) Read. Even if it is for Kirkus which it usually is...my stack of big boy pleasure books (that sounds dirty) is increasing and we won't delve into the comics that lie fallow next to the bed.
3) Watch TV. It's right there...in the next room. We pay a hundred dollars a month for the channels...I should use it right?
4) Housework (yeah, Trent don't make a snide comment! This includes making your dinner and planning to make your dinner and shopping for dinner ;-)
5) Play with the cats--that Pink Baby won't throw herself into the air! (Actually, at present, Pink Baby is distressingly missing! We have to make due with Blue Baby and it's not nearly as easy to smack back at the Daddies like a champion FVA player (Feline Volleyball Association) Maybe I should go hunt for Pink Baby...).
6) Mess with technology...I have that new Slate Tablet I won from Project Runway (see #3) The eye-fi card in the camera needs updating. Annoying Adobe continually needs updates on every device...
7) Wool-gather aka contemplate my navel aka stargaze aka be lost in thought aka daydream aka indulge in the blind stares aka come up with euphemisms for staring at the wall. (Though sometimes I return from a good stare at the wall with a solution to what ever problem I had before me at the start)
8) Worry. I have that misbehaving mind I mentioned in a blog post long ago...and though it's great when it comes to plotting novels and stories, it's not so helpful when my brain uses its creativity to throw worst case scenarios at me from my own life. I can turn a freckle into fatal skin cancer and a branch scraping the house into a rodent infestation in two seconds flat!
9) Nap. I may not be on the Olympic Napping Team like Mr Trent, but I love nothing more than a morning dozey in my chair with a cup of coffee and a book open in my lap looking as if it is being read.
10) Work at the Library. Sure I like my new job, the people I work with, the kids I get to see--but that's 40+ hours of prime writing time that, were I to win the lottery jackpot, I would use for writing...since a lottery win is ever so slightly unlikely...I better go get ready for work.
