So, yesterday was a dull, slow day that I went through half asleep. I didn't really start waking up properly until about five in the afternoon, and even though I didn't actually nap during the day I managed to stay woken up for the next, oh, twelve hours. Which brings me to now. In other words, I haven't slept yet. I expect to be dropping off soon after I post this, though I don't know how long I'll be asleep for because it's going to get too warm and bright to sleep well before too long.
The good news is I've already posted the chapter of Tales of MU for today. It was in the state that I call "basically finished" two days ago, though in the course of giving it its final pass and polish I added another ~700 words to it. There's a persistent rumor that some writers edit down. I edit up. I think it's tremendously improved by it, though.
The State of the Me

Plans For Today
Well, there are two theories I can operate under. Under one theory, it's day 4 of chapter 101's writing cycle and I've finished that task. Under the other theory, it's day 2 of chapter 102's writing cycle so I have a minimum of 500 and a target of 1,000 words. Either theory could end up in play, depending on how I feel... and how I sleep. I'll make a status update post when I wake up.
