So, the Syfy network has thrown a monkey-wrench into my plans for today by airing a Buffy the Vampire Slayer marathon. Yes, I love Buffy, though I'm not one of those who knows every detail of the series--there are several episodes I haven't seen.
Anyways, I'll be sitting here watching TV, instead of writing and/or drawing or painting, I'm sure. Though I do plan to do a pastel of a magnolia blossom--I'm also doing an acrylic painting of the same thing but this is for a friend so I want to give her alternatives.
My friend and my goddaughter are in town and I've spent some time with them this week--it's been all kinds of awesome. I'm sure I'll get more opportunities to spend time with them while they are in this area--they're leaving on another little trip in a couple of days but they'll be back after that.
It's weird, though, because I've been so solitary for so long, it takes me a while to get used to having people around again. For years it's been just me, so it's an adjustment. It's one I'm happy to make, but it's still a little weird.
Anyways, I've been able to get some work done on book one of The Sorcerer's Daughter series. I'm much happier with it this time around--it just feels right, like I'm finally telling the story I want to tell.
Back to work tomorrow, after being off all week. That will be a bit stressful, as it always is, especially since I've been asked to do something by my boss and I'm not entirely sure how I'm going to do it. It involves training, and that is not my strong suit. I mean, I can be trained--learning new stuff is pretty easy for me, usually--the problem is when I'm supposed to train other people.
So,, wish me luck, and, if you're in the US, tune your TV to Syfy to waste your entire day!
