Just a quick update on Sweat. Yesterday I was tempted to slack off, but I didn’t. I got my five pages written for the day. That means I’m only behind three for my goal this week. I’ll try and make that up today.

My husband is heading off to Comic Con in San Diego tomorrow morning. He deserves the vacation, though he’ll be working his butt off. My dad is coming up to watch the girls for me Thursday and Friday while I’m at work, and then he’s going to stay the weekend. We’ll have a blast.

I’ve also been tagged with two memes. Angela gave me the nod for this one: Blogging Tips Meme.

-Start Copy-

It’s very simple. When this is passed on to you, copy the whole thing, skim the list and put a * star beside those that you like. (Check out especially the * starred ones.)

Add the next number (1. 2. 3. 4. 5., etc.) and write your own blogging tip for other bloggers. Try to make your tip general.

After that, tag 10 other people. Link love some friends!

Just think- if 10 people start this, the 10 people pass it onto another 10 people, you have 100 links already!

1. Look, read, and learn. **

2. Be, EXCELLENT to each other. *

3. Don’t let money change ya! *
-http://www.therandomforest.info

4. Always reply to your comments. ***

5. Link liberally — it keeps you and your friends afloat in the Sea of Technorati. *

6. Don’t give up - persistence is fertile. **

7. Give link credit where credit is due. ***

8. Pictures say a thousand words and can usually add to any post.*

9. How we all need a goal.

-End Copy-

Now I’m supposed to tag ten people…but I’ll let you tag your self.

Julia also tagged me with the Moaning Meme, where I get to air some gripes. *cracks her knuckles*

 4 things that should go into Room 101 and be removed from the face of the earth:

• Expensive (usually stinky) perfume - blah
• Gum with Aspartame
• Half the crap in my junk drawer - where did this stuff come from!
• All the crap they use to fasten toys to boxes to make them look nice. Do you know how long it takes to get a Polly Pocket out of the wrapping!!!

3 things people do that make you want to shake them violently:

• “I know you haven’t read this book/watched this movie, but here’s how it ends!”
• Opening up a dead issue just after things seem to have settled down
• Talk during a movie

2 things you find yourself moaning about:

• How there’s never enough time to do everything
• The weather

1 thing the above answers tell you about yourself:

• I need to relax and enjoy myself more

RULES

Link to the original meme at freelancecynic.com so people know what it’s all about!
Be as honest as possible, This is about letting people get to know the real you!
Try not to insult anyone - unless they really deserve it or are very, very ugly!
Post these rules at the end of every meme!
