Well, LoF ch. 29 is now up to 1500 words.  Slowly but surely.  It feels good to be writing again, even if I have to take lots of breaks.  I am hoping to write at least 1000 more words today.  Won't probably do anything on it tomorrow since I have to be a MOM and go with the family to the Pacific Science Center for the Harry Potter exhibit.  It leaves soon and they really, really want to see it.  The last tihng I want to do is travel to Seatlle, but sometimes you have to suck it up and do things for your kids.  I told Chris he may end up having to wheel me around in a wheelchair the whole time.  My leg is better, but my head is so full of gunk I can barely walk without weaving.  He's agreed to do that if my cold isn't better enough by tomorrow.

Normally I'd write in the car, but I don't really want to leave my laptop in there unprotected while we're in the science center.  It may be on it's last legs, but it's all I've got until I finish saving up for a new one and even though most of my files are backed up elsewhere, anything new I would write that day would not be.  And I've tried to reconstruct chapters I've lost before and they never feel as good as the originals.

I'll probably just read Placebo Effect instead.  It's an Eighth Doctor book [livejournal.com profile] jeprdyfrndly loaned me.  It took me a while to get into it since the character of the Doctor isn't even introduced until chapter three, but I am starting to now.  Gary Russell writes a little shippy though with the Doctor and Sam.  Or it seems like it.  It's a little weird after reading the Ninth and Tenth Doctor books which have their shippy moments, but you never hear Rose confess in her head her feelings about the Doctor like Sam does.  At least not in the ones I've read so far.  It's kind of weird because they are going to a former companion's wedding and of course future canon says the Doctor doesn't do domestic, doesn't go back and visit people from his past, at least not until he's Ten with Sarah Jane.  This pretty much contradicts that.  Oh, well.
