writerly ways

Another Sunday, another writer’s blog entry. This time I’m back to thinking about settings. That Children of the New Moon (which is getting worse by the moment) got me considering the setting, what are we tired of seeing, what do we never tire of seeing.

I'm a little under my monthly goal but not by much.

I'm not going to lie. this post is going to be abbreviated but not because I'm watching the Superbowl (well I am) but because my shoulder is killing me so badly sitting and typing is not a happy thing.

How did we do this week? I maintained. I suspect I'll be writing that one a lot.

Last week ishte offered up this link: my fitness pal I haven't looked at it yet but you might find it helpful.

Congrats to the Packers. They definitely deserved to win this one and since they are my second favorite team ever I'm not that disappointed it wasn't the Steelers. Maybe now their QB can stop being unfavorable compared to Brett Favre. The Steelers sucked in the first half. The second half was amazing on both sides. Also I ADORED the VW little Dark Vadar commerical. It was brilliant.

I didn't do much but make a test and clean the bathroom today. Other than that I sat around watching Ghost Hunter being jealous of where they get to go while I worked on stories. almost there on my original fiction because damn it i have to be.

the shoulder hurts beyond reason. I go back to the doc tomorrow but i'm not sure there's anything much they can do until i can have surgery. maybe there's PT or something.

Since Krogers mysteriously got Meyer Lemons (and had them on sale) I bought a bag. Tonight I turned some of it into soup. Meyer lemons are sweeter than regular lemons (I could eat the meat right out of the skin) and are slightly floral. I zested them (I might make limoncello sort of with that)

Here's the soup
