Not What I Had in Mind

When I said that I planned to work on balancing things in my life, having my work projects quadruple in number was not what I had in mind. It's gotten to the point where I have set up my e-mail with an out of office reply even though I am not out of the office. It basically explains that unless an urgent web posting is required, I will not get to the project until next week. I brought work home with me tonight, but I ended up taking a 20 minute cat nap that lasted 3-1/2 hours. Oops. And I still feel exhausted. I'm hoping to get some of these projects out of the way tomorrow.

Overall, I'm quite pleased with the comments my Romancing the Blog entry has received. It seemed to spark a lot of interest, which is all I could hope for. Now I just have to decide which of my four ideas to write next . . .

Tomorrow after work I am getting together with my publications coworkers. We're going to have dinner, watch a video, and scrapbook. I will be leaving partway through the video to attend Rachel Gibson's book signing, which I'm very excited about. I'm hoping my mom will let me borrow her camera, since both of mine are giving me trouble at the moment.

Over the weekend, you can expect to see a book signing report and hopefully a book review or two. If I end up not posting a review, it will be because I'm too busy trying to catch up on work. :(
