April Near-15th Blues

How anticlimactic. After neglecting my other work for several days, not to mention the blog, in order to do my taxes, I find I have to file for an extension. An arcane problem with the reporting on a retirement account, which will require an even more arcane solution. (And time.) Blast. Frak. Whatever.

I think I should take up juggling. I've got a new piece of consulting-editing work to do (algebra, data analysis—how exciting, I can hear you say), and I'm running somewhat behind schedule on the novelization. I'm up to about page 80 on the manuscript, which is projected at about 400 pages. Lessee—I'm 43 minutes into a 3-hour miniseries (4 hours, minus the commercials), which means..... (don't rush me, I'm thinking) ...................... I'm not quite one-fourth of the way through the story.

Better get cracking.
