I don't know what happened to January. I mean, yes, I know what happened to January: we had the flu, or something like it, and totally lost a full week or more to being sick. And then Ted had a week off and somehow I got a lot less work done in that time than I imagined I was going to, and now it's the end of the month and I'm sick again. For God's sake.

I've gotten...15K or so done on MAGIC & MANNERS, which is pretty good, but it's not *done*, which is what I was hoping for. I crossed the 70K mark this morning, and I have dreams of it coming in at 100K but I'm afraid it, er, won't. I'm afraid if I'm lucky it'll be 110K and if I'm not it'll come in around 120K, which is roughly the length of PRIDE & PREJUDICE.

30K to go sounds a lot less awful than 50K, though. Anyway, so I need a TARDIS to get caught up. Which is a pretty pathetic use of a TARDIS, when you get right down to it, but needs must.
