Brain dead
Sep. 14th, 2005 01:53 pmThe puppy had another anxiety
episode last night, but I think that I dealt with it better. I
sat with him and got him to calm down a little, then I slipped him a
mickey and sat with him until he calmed down a whole lot. Of
course all of this happened at 4:30 in the morning. And of course
he was chipper as all hell this morning when the alarm went off and I
was bedraggled and dopey. He has the luxury of sleeping all
day. But if figured that it was all my fault in the first place
because I was the one who accidentally woke him up at 4:30 because I
had to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. I don't
plan my night time liquid intake as well as I should.
But never mind that.
I submitted my second article today (369 days after I submitted the first one)! This is the article that was a source of such angst and depressive moods for me in July. It is finally done and ready to really be torn apart by reviewers. Yay! Watch it get rejected. I have such a good feeling about it that I'm sure to be dead wrong and that the whole thing is a piece of crap. Oh well. The submission specs sure make a girl jump through hoops. I had to submit the 30 page monstrosity in triplicate. Plus a disk copy. Plus email in a digital copy. The biggest problem of the day was finding an envelope big enough to hold 90 pages plus disk. Postage was just a crap shoot. I guessed more than $2, but less than $3. I'm sure someone will tell me if I erred. My brain is now officially fried. But still, I can't wait to see what comes next!
NEXT!
