Another Quick Update While Feeding the Fish...
My love is still out of town, and here I am again, stopping by to feed the fish and use the dial up Internet.
- I did take pictures of The Loft, but can't really upload them until I get my broadband.
- No Internet + No Girlfriend + Lots of Time = Major Work Done On Novel! I boosted the word count by about 5000 words over the last few days.
- No Internet also equals No Instant Research. Interestingly enough, that hasn't really been a problem, though for some reason (amazing foresight?) I printed out a lot of research material before I started this whole moving process, and so had many of the facts I needed as hardcopy for this weekend's writing binge.
- I did not move up here with a TV nor do I intend to get one. That's right, I have NO TELEVISION. I don't miss it at all. What I do miss, however, is my microwave oven. Without it I feel like I'm camping or something.

- I will catch up with you all later this week. Promise!

Glad to hear of the novel progress.
Enjoy your distraction-free days . . .
*LOL* That's so upbeat and hilarious!! I'm glad you're makin progress on your novel. Given my current state of mind, you may have inspired me to work on mine.
Thx!
I could certainly live without the t.v. as well.
There are only two really awesome shows that I like, and even so it's not the end of the world if I miss them.
I KNOW! Whatever did we do before nuked food?
That's so funny. When we moved to Chicago, my wife was there a few weeks before me as I was finishing up a gig. She didn't fully unpack everything, and she said the same thing about feeling like she was camping in the apartment.
No TV. That means books. Lord how I miss books (sigh).
I went without TV for a long time . . . then I had a kid and the TV came back. I'd love to get rid of it.
