Edged Out

Blood was 6.1 this morning (Oh, and meant to mention - the morning after the faux-Xenical flux capacitation of the filo pastry....thing, I ended up with blood of 7.3. So - let's not do that again...)

Today, I wrote a long-ish list of Stuff To Do. One of the first things on it was 'Do Some Biking.' But there seemed to be more urgent things on the list, so I attended to them first...then, at around 10.30, the list pretty much exploded.

It exploded because the postman pushed the latest Writing Magazine through my door.

I don't subscribe to Writing Magazine.

The only reason the postman would have posted a copy of it through my door is because I was in it.

Or rather, my business was in it. You remember, probably, that I'm starting a business, right? It'll strike plenty of you as ironic as Hell that I'm starting an editorial services business, given the quantity of typos in this blog, but hey - nobody's paying me to get this right!

Thing is, I figured I still had a few more days before the magazine hit the streets, so my website was dementedly unfinished when the magazine arrived...

The rest of the day pretty much got consumed in a pillar of the day-job (deadline day there too - no pressure!) and getting the business website to at least a vaguely presentable state. Which is the state it's in now.

So - at the risk of turning this blog into an advert - anything you've got to write, from a CV to a strongly worded letter, to a novel, to a website and eve, yes, a blog, give me a shout at enquiries@jefferson-franklin.co.uk, or check out the still-just-about-ready www.jefferson-franklin.co.uk.

The point, beyond the advertising spiel, is that my plans for a rational, reasonable day which included a certain amount of exercise blew up.

This will not happen tomorrow - walking in the morning, biking lunchtime, possibly biking in the evening too, dammit. I will not be edged out of my Disappearing routine for more than one day. Saturday we've got a double dose of activity - swimming and gyming - so I'm hoping one off day won't have too negative an impact on my week.

Of course, having gone out tonight for a Chinese buffet on the other hand...
