Oh man, oh man, oh man, oh man, OH MMAAAANNNNN. “Competence” comes out tonight and I’m so, so readdddyyyy. I already know that I’m not going to be doing much of anything besides listening to that book until I’ve finished it. It sucks for my writing goals because I’m not likely to get a lot of writing done tomorrow and maybe not the next day either. I am so excited. I guess that’s obvious. It’s only that I’ve been waiting so very long.

I was pleased I got a little further in the story I’m working on for this month before I went to bed last night. I need to try to get a chunk of something written tonight before I go to bed, because I’ve got a big day tomorrow and I’m sure I’ll want to listen to my book which will mean a lot of squeezing in hours of listening wherever possible and the likelihood of staying up too late so that I can finish it. How I’m going to listen to a 12-hour book in a single workday, I don’t know, but dammit, I’m gonna try.

That’s probably a silly thing to do since I’m going to have to wait two years for the next one to come out, but I have a feeling that because this one is centered on Primrose and the next one is centered on Percy that it will wrap up well enough for me to be satisfied until the next one comes out. Not that I won’t be desperately excited for the next book because of course, I will, but Primrose might be getting a love story with Tasharet, the enchantingly beautiful were-lioness and they’re just so unbelievably… God, I don’t even know how to describe them. But I am DYING to find out what happens between them. DYING I tell you. I also said that I was going to sleep in on Wednesday so at the very least I won’t be up at 5 am after not having gone to sleep until four am. I may not get to sleep any later than 7:20, but four hours is better than one.

Work is gonna be the worst tomorrow. I just don’t see how I’m going to be able to get much of anything done. Like at all. Hopefully, I’ll be able to use my time on the desk to write a little because otherwise, I’m probably not getting any shit written tomorrow.
