Okay, it’s not really raining. Though they seem to think it’ll start tomorrow. That’s fine with me as long as it waits until they get the two halves of the house together first. But they should get that done today, so that’s cool.

We drove by there late yesterday afternoon so I could see it. First time. It’s so pretty!!! Much prettier, in my opinion, than our site built house we’re in now.

I missed the first 35 minutes of Smallville last night because our lousy cable service was out. I swear, they have more problems than any cable service I’ve ever dealt with. And they have the nerve to talk about how much better they are than satellite service! HAH!!! I don’t have anywhere near the trouble with my satellite service that I do with cable. Bastards. Anyway, at least I got to see part of the episode. And I’m so mad about who they killed off!!!! They’re bastards too.

On the writing front, I now have a rough synopsis done. Yay, me!!! I wrote almost a page and a half on it last night.

They’re moving our house in today instead of Friday!!! Woohoo!!! There are a lot of things that need to be done after it’s set up, but we have another three weeks before we have to be out of our house here. So it shouldn’t be too stressful. On the other hand, that could be wishful thinking.

Busy TV night last night. I watched Lost and Invasion and recorded Criminal Minds, CSI: NY and Bones. I’ll catch Veronica Mars on Sunday when WWOR does their encore thing. Spoiler ahead for Lost. It had some really gut-wrenching scenes. I feel so sorry for Charlie. But he really did handle things badly. And why, since Locke took Charlie’s stash of heroin-filled statues did he not destroy them like he told Charlie he was going to do? Why did he just lock them up in the hatch armory?

And on the writing front, I added another couple of paragraphs to the murder mystery synopsis/outline. I swear, I think writing synopses is the absolute worst thing about being a writer. I hate them!!!

Er, I mean Name That Character! Yeah, that’s it. Got all my suspects named now. Whew! Well, I guess some of them aren’t suspects but they had access to the scene of the crime so they need to be questioned. Luckily for them, my police detective is much too civilized to even think about giving them the Third Degree. Of course, some of the palookas (isn’t that a fun word? ) he works with might try it. However, they’re not involved in questioning the suspects in this book.

Last night I watched the Surface I recorded on Monday. When it was over, they said something to the effect of “the final two episodes”. What?!?! Is it the final two episodes of the whole series? Or the final two episodes of the season? Why can’t they explain these things better? Huh. Just googled it and it looks like it’s the end of the series, though I’m not sure it was meant to be the end or it got cancelled. Oh well.

And great news! They’re supposed to move the house in on Friday!!! Yippee!!!
