Dec. 10th, 2005 12:19 pmToday I have a magpie mind.
One moment I am picking at the history of Louisiana to try to make sense of the curious current administration styles in different parts of the state. Another I am darting towards Australian speculative fiction from twenty years ago. I pause for a moment in between forays to get a cup of tea or contemplate silly season parties and, in that moment, I find it *hugely* important to quality control Chanukah presents, so I blow bubbles all over my loungeroom. Then I look at my list of work that has to be done and edit for a little, interspersing the editing with rude emails to my best friend about Manolo fetishing and questions to her about finding gold near the Mississippi. This has been going on for three hours. Quite obviously I did too much work last week.
