And I'm starting to feel a little impatient. It's like I'm in a car, sitting in traffic. I can see the light I need to get to up ahead, but in front of me is an endless line of crawling cars. And all I want to do is STOMP ON THE GAS AND GET MOVING.

Yeah, publishing is like that sometimes.

In the meantime, there's plenty of cool stuff going on to keep me mentally busy. I just spent all morning wrapping Christmas presents and going through my bookshelves. I have a few old favorites that I've pulled out to re-read: Julie Garwood, Judith Mcnaught, Johanna Lindsay, Jude Deveraux and Donald Maass (HEH - which one of these does not belong, eh?). Work is bound to be slammed this week since it will be a short week. Survivor Finale tonight (Go Foa Foa!) and that Christmas thing should be popping up this weekend too...
