So, I go to work today...



and I get my new schedule. I work the same days, but my hours have changed. As of next Monday I will work 6pm - 2:30am. No big deal...it's only an hour and a half later than the shift I already work.

However (oh, like you didn't see this coming!), there are people who are upset that I got this schedule. Why you ask? Good question. I never got an actual answer...just dirty looks and remarks like, "well, must be nice to not have to turn your whole life upside down like the rest of us."

Huh?

So, I'm not sure what the problem is, and I honestly don't care. My schedule is just that, MY schedule. Just because I had the forethought to go to my Sup and let her know that I would be willing to take that shift and less willing to take another one is no reason to be pissed at me. I did what anyone else who had possible conflicts with a new schedule should have done. If they weren't smart enough to do that, then shame on them!

Okay..enough about that. Onto more "interesting topics"...

I finished the new outline and layout of Three Wishes. I just finished reading it over in its new form and I'm pretty stoked about it. I'm marathoning this week (don't know if I can do it this weekend or not..we will have to see), and I figure I can finish this round of rewrites in about two weeks. That of course also depends on how much work I can get done at my "day job" or if I can leave early. I'll keep you posted. I'm still doing a happy dance over the ending. I think it's pretty clever, if I dare say so. :-)

Other than that, I'm not doing any writing. Nothing else is holding my interest at the moment. I have several article ideas floating around in the gray matter, but until I finish Three Wishes (and find a new name...it doesn't fit the book anymore *sigh*) nothing else is generating itself onto the page. I keep looking at the fortune that I have taped to my monitor, and I'm increasingly convinced that this book could be the thing that gets me from "Kim,wannabe novelist" to "KA Francis, author of (need a new name!)". Don't know why I feel so strongly about this book, but I do, so I am going to run with it and see where it takes me.

On that note (I believe it's the "E" just above middle "C"..bad joke, sorry), I'm going to head back to work. Enjoy the rest of your week...I'll probably check back in again before the weekend.
