I want to tell the world that I will refrain from doing the following things until my book is done and sent to the person who has been waiting with the patience of Job for the manuscript:
1) I, Ms. Strega, will NOT buy the full set of Seasons 1-9 of the X-files from Ebay, for it will become a major distraction. I did not have cable when the show was in prime-time, as I've said before here, so I missed lots of episodes and when my son Riff described the last show to me, I thought he was kidding. I WILL fork over cold, hard cash the second my book is in the mail and immerse myself for awhile in nostaliga for the days of Mulder and Scully.
2) I hereby swear that, though our regular desktop Internet computer is down, I will NOT surrender my Macbook to those who wish to get on the Internet every five freaking minutes to look at Myspace. This puts me on the level of Captain Bligh at times, but I have to get some work done. They can wait until I am done.
3) I will NOT let every household crisis blow to bits my ability to get something done for my writing every day, even if it's just a page in my journal.
It takes so much
