Feeling good today

Went to a b-day party for devinam's pirate last night and had a great time.  Didn't know most folks when we arrived, but got to chatting with several and found them cool.  felipemcguire and I even invented a new drink--the Fuzzy Limey.  I need to ask him what the proportions were, though.  I forgot to do that last night.  D'oh!

So yesterday I got some fantastic, helpful feedback from k-bob on my short story.  I've done a fair amount of work on it based on that, and jenboo said she's hoping to finish reading it today.  Once I get her fb, I can combine all of it and really sink my teeth into the editing.  Then one more quick round back to them and then back to me; a final (draft) edit; and then submit it by the deadline and cross my fingers.

And this morning NordicBoy and I went for an hour-long walk, which was really nice.

Things that would be cool...

My friend Laughing Muse getting paid to blog for a year.  Go vote for her if you're so inclined.

Getting cast with GreenStage again this year.

My short story being accepted for the anthology I'll be submitting it for.

The Mariners vs. The Cubs in the 2007 World Series. ... It's not impossible. :-P

Free round-trip 1st-class airfare to NZ. ... Okay.  That one is impossible.  But it would be cool.
