Couldn't get back to sleep this morning after unseelie left.

So I tossed around for a while and then got up and assembled the things I need to get done... tax related stuff mostly, plus the info to mail off rent check.

It's hard to focus when you're sleep dep'd.

I love all the amazing technology I'm learning about and seeing here. I wish I could tell you all about the stuff I've seen, but I'm not allowed to put it in print. Ask me in person if you want to hear about some of the stuff that has really stood out. And a lot of similar stuff can actually be found at www.gizmodo.com. Nifty technology site; some of it is boring but some of it is really amazing, like a mind-controlled wheelchair.

Not feeling nearly as bitchy today as yesterday, thank goodness. Still kinda frustrated with all the pr folk I'm dealing with. They push and they push and they push, and then when you actually want something they send you a fricking press release and expect you to wade through it for a basic piece of info. How incredibly obnoxious...
Meanwhile a lot of them seem not very intelligent. "Already available in stores" is NOT the ship date, you idiot. If I wanted to know that I would have said, "IS it available in stores."

I seem to be experiencing a lull in projects again, which means that now is the time to assemble my story ideas and pitch anything that seems do-able. Eep. Meep. Scary. But you gotta do what you gotta do. unseelie would say the price of failure is not death, except that those words don't do anything for me. Hate to say it, but they are for him, not for me. There might be words that make me shudder and push that barrier a little further, but for me at least, those aren't them.

I am feeling impatient about certain things. "But I want my ice cream NOW, mommy!" Bah humbug.

"no Ice cream until you pitch a story idea..."

Well then, I won't offer the gallon-and-a-half of cookies and cream in my freezer :-P

Dude. That's a Cylon kitten. That's wrong!

[geekosaur]

No, it's a K.I.T.T.-y cat.

[auros]

I have no idea what a K.I.T.T.-y cat is. But the Cylons, from Battlestar Galactica, are, IIRC, the earliest SF critters to feature a visor on their face with a red light sweeping back and forth.

[geekosaur]

I know. But if you call it a Cylon you lose that beautiful pun. :)

K.I.T.T. was the car in Knight Rider.

Ah, right, I remember now... I never watched Knight Rider when I was a kid -- my parents didn't really let me watch much TV at all. I only know BG because I saw the movie at some point, and then saw a few eps on the SciFi channel back when they were showing it...
