A little self-indulgence
I have been sans internet (or phone or cable, but who cares about those) in my house since we got walloped by a big storm on Sunday. We had no power for two days too. I keep reminding myself that I have spent significant periods of time without such silly trifles as computers before. And yet, I am still doing that thing where I constantly refresh to see if the connection has been magically restored in the last ten minutes...
Anyway, the point of this post is that I have a ton of things to reply to and hopefully I will remember once I have time. I kind of feel like I'm in Peru again, except without all the awesome stuff. But I am back to my tried and true method of going to an internet cafe before/after work and opening a ton of tabs to read later. So, I have been reading things! And I will try to remember what they are so that I can leave comments once I have wireless again.
In other news, I have been writing some original fic and I have tentatively returned to my long-neglected plotfic. Looking over my outline yesterday, I realized just how close I was to finishing Part 3 (out of 7). Honestly, being internet-deprived is very good for my productivity, as I am forced to entertain myself without all those pesky distractions. But that will not stop me from complaining! Or hoping that tonight will be the night it comes back.
ETA: Thursday night, and we have a signal! I almost did a little dance when I found out, but managed to restrain myself.
