It's 4:00, and what have I accomplished?

truepennythings done
1. Read through the new novella and fixed things that needed fixing (and there were several). It can go out tomorrow, if I can get myself together to print it out and get the envelopes addressed and the cover letter written and everything.
2. Finished an article on Hamlet I'd gotten halfway through sometime last week.
3. Finished the chapter of Bowers I was stuck in. (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
melymbrosia, he's terrible. He's smug, chauvinistic, and also boring.)
4. Wrote one new sentence on the salvage thing, which wants to be something somewhere between a novella and a novel, but be damned if I know what.
things not done
1. I did not get to the library this afternoon, because I was moving too damn slowly to get my ass out the door at a reasonable time.
2. I have not finished Bowers.
3. I haven't gotten Rabinowitz written into the dissertation where he needs to go.
4. DL(2) Ch. 5 is still stuck like Pooh in Rabbit's doorway.
5. Errandy things that need to happen.

One of my favorite of Walt Kelly's secondary characters in Pogo was Sarcophagus MacAbre, a vulture who spoke in black-bordered engravings. Doom and gloom, dearly beloved, is one of Sarcophagus's better lines, and a quite adequate reflection of my mood at the moment.
