I should be doing book stuff right now.
I'm networking, playing Facebook games, and cleaning all the Xmas accoutrements out of the apartment. H was supposed to help me take the train apart, but he went to bed; so it's all me. I look forward to bringing the train around next year for Thanksgiving and leaving it up will Epiphany. That sounds just about perfect. Today though, I don't feel like taking it apart.
Need to put my press packet together for the new book today. At the very least, I need to have a kickass press release that I can start sending around now that I have some decent leads. This book really needs to do...something lest I have to once again reevaluate just what the hell I'm doing here. Like with Sadie, I'm highly confident that this novel is genuinely good and deserves some actual notice. But then, that's what every idiot over at LuLu.com says too. Frown.
Within 200mb of filling up my 80g iPod. Where does the space go? Well, I do have about 40 movies and a zillion TV eps on that thing. Plus a ton of music and audiobooks, and all my writing and most of my pics are also backed up there. So I guess I can see it, it's just surprising.
So, I'm losing a bunch of weight. I weighed myself a couple weeks ago and found that I had dropped 19 pounds somehow. Okay, fine. But I haven't been trying. At all. In fact, I've been eating a bit more fast food than usual because I'd been feeling kinda sick and depressed and lazy. After seeing that I'd lost weight, I made it a point to not do anything unusual in terms of diet or exercise. Weighed myself this morning to discover I've lost a further 3 and a half pounds. Again, okay. In the abstract I suspect that losing weight may improve my health and feelings of overall well being. It will become easier to shop for clothes and wear seat belts and stuff (which it has been, actually). In fact, I wore a skirt on NYE that did not fit me at this time last year. Honest. If I didn't have one of those scales that stores your previous weighings in it, I wouldn't have believed I was losing so much.
Because I have been fucking off so much on my "diet" (read: the ongoing assumption that because I am fat, that I should forgo carbs, fast food, and sweets, fried stuff, and dairy at all times) I'm wondering if I might actually be sick or something. I certainly don't want the doc to congratulate me on all the weight I've lost and not look at the possibility that it might be for some terrible reason. Aside from that bad cold I had, I haven't been feeling bad really. My water balance has been off some, but nothing to get worried about so far as I know. Anyway, I need to call the doc and make an appointment, I just don't want to and can't really afford it.
My good pal,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
uterdic is coming by tonight to watch Lifeboat which is one of Hitchcock's most excellent films. After Rope, and Psycho, this may well be my fave.
I bought that Flaming Lips cover of Dark Side of the Moon from iTunes today, using up the gift cert I got for my birthday. I had not actually bought an album since I got Movits! over the summer--August I think. Anyway, I look forward to checking it out.
I also gave up on Google Chrome for the moment as they won't let me organize my bookmarks. That is totally stupid. What's a web browser that won't let you marks the places you go on the web? Dum dum dum dum DUM!
And finally, I just thought this pic was hilarious:

Strange about the weight loss. I hope it isn't anything serious.

Especially since it will be a bit before I can afford to see the doc.
