ok.

quick update, in increasing order of current importance (dramatic effect, you know).

1. novel is on hold. there's simply too much other stuff going on. (see below)
2. move is complete, essentially. i'm still surrounded by boxes, but i'm living with the scammer and so far, things are good.
3. marc asked me to marry him. i said yes. we are engaged. we are ecstatic. really, it's silly. we're just bubbly with joy. sickening those around us, i'm sure. two words: singing. telegram. oh, yes.

anyway, now you see. since the novel's on hold, i don't really have much excuse for not writing here more except that it seems i've redistributed that time somehow... mostly to staring at the ring. urgent matter, you know. anyway, be back soon, gotta go bling bling.
