Okay, in the whole scheme of things, work for
me is quite enjoyable, really. But I'm on deadline
for the next portion of my book about blogging
and I seem to be doing everything else but
dedicating myself diligently to the project
at hand right now...
1. Check emails. Answer emails.
2. Engage in an email negativity-fest with a
woman who claims I misquoted her in my
book "Cybergrrl@Work" (which came out in
2001, by the way) and insisting I remove
immediately an excerpt I have on one of
my web sites quoting her. Even after I
searched old Zip disks and found the
email exchanges between her, my
book research assistant and me, she
still denies having written the content
that I lifted from her emails for the quotes.
If I were in a better mood, I'd just remove
the article but I'm cranky.
3. Let the dogs out for a pee.
4. Work on research for another article
for Home Business Magazine.
I like writing for them - it is a stress free
assignment.
5. Run to Office Max to look at proofs of
my new business card.
6. Stop off at Starbucks on the way.
I know, I know, I shouldn't be frequenting
Starbucks but I like their Venti
Iced Decaf Lattes or Iced Decaf Venti
Lattes or however they say them.
So sue me. No, wait a minute, the woman
who says I misquoted her is already
threatening to sue me so I'll just keep my
mouth shut the next time I get a Starbucks
decaf latte.
7. Check emails. Answer emails.
8. Make a chicken breast sandwich
on 8 seed bread with mayo.
9. Put dishes in the dishwasher and actually
turn it on. This is new to me. I've hated
dishwashers ever since my sister and I lived
with two other gals and my sister insisted
that dishes had to be placed in a certain
way, a certain direction. Then she'd have
a fit when I didn't do it right. I also hate
how people love the convenience of
dishwashers but spend almost the same
amount of time cleaning off plates before
putting them in the dishwasher so they
might as well just wash them by hand.
10. Post on blog. Better yet, post on all
my blogs. There are now officially 6 of
them including my new PR Girl
blog on WorldWit.org and of course,
my fave Dogorama blog
about dog products and news.
There you have it. It is 1:30pm my time,
I've been up since 7am, and I still haven't
opened my blog book. Let's hope the words
start flowing when I do. Fingers crossed.
