1. London Zoo is expensive. Even with a discount for a family ticket. Still, it's all booked and paid for now, which means we are committed to actually getting there on Tuesday! No backing out now.
2. Now all we have to do is figure out what to do all afternoon on Monday...
3. Funny how a teeny tiny trip to London that started out as just me and Chel for one day only has just grown and grown into a monster of a two day expedition that includes Deb and Ray and Ray's niece Shanei, who lives with them, and now, it turns out, possibly our cousin Veronica, as well, since she's just moved up to London with her boyfriend, as he has a new job up there, and is bored and lonely in their cramped little studio flat all day long, so would love to meet up with us while we're there...
4. Work is giving me a headache today. Too many meetings with too many technicians this week. I am ready for the weekend now!
5. It has been a long, long time since I attempted to write fanfic of any kind, but this week I've found myself dabbling with a long-abandoned WIP. There's nothing especially unusual about that, as I've looked through this WIP many times over the past couple of years, tweaking and fiddling with the bits that are written and then reading through the notes for how it was supposed to continue but not actually writing anything new. This, time, though, I suddenly find that 23 pages of actual story (as opposed to rough notes) have turned into 36 pages of actual story. Question: when you have written 13 pages of a story in what few free moments you have over the course of a week, does that mean you have to admit to yourself that you are actually writing again, or can it still be written off as simply playing around with something you have no intention of actually finishing?
6. Either way, do not expect to actually see this story anytime ever. Some projects simply were never intended to be finished.
7. Fingers crossed it doesn't rain tomorrow. Probably will, though, just because I don't want it to.
