I have guests arriving soon and I desperately need to go to the grocery store, but it has been pouring all day and I just can't bring myself to leave the house. I am running out of time, though, so it will happen soon.

Life managed to become even more stressful. I am behind on answering all sorts of things -- emails, messages, texts, phone calls, etc. -- and probably won't be catching up on those or on reading LJ any time soon. If I should know about something, please drop me a note here and I'll try to take care of it sooner rather than later.

Despite the stressful life, I finished not just draft one, but draft two of my Remix fic. I have the most awesomest beta ever for this piece and ze has made the story so much better. Depending on how soon ze responds to draft two, I may even post Remix this weekend instead of, oh, at the last freaking minute as I normally do.

(Wait, Remix isn't due this weekend, is it? *frantically checks* No! It is not! So I may be uploading early! This is amazing!)

I am giddy about Remix, if you haven't noticed. It is a bright spot in a really stressful world.

Okay. Off to shop and then I will return to the couch and poke at Remix some more. Or maybe start answering emails.

ETA: On the positive side, got the beta back and it a) made me feel so much better about the story and b) was a super quick final fix, so I posted it already. One thing off my To Do list.

On the negative, more stress. Big new things, but then a little thing, too: I'm catching up on Legend of the Seeker and my dvr keeps skipping on this one episode ("Vengeance"). I just want to relax with dinner and a show, damn it.
