Reason for stopping: going to the gym as soon as the boy gets home
Sustenance: Tazo berryblossom white, my favorite tea this week
Darling: Through the lace Asha's skin is icy, but that's not the wrong thing Jodi notices--the width of her hand isn't right, the flex of metacarpals as she squeezes.
Tyop: the width of her hand isn't write
Words Word don't know: ulnar
Words I'm surprised Word do know: metacarpals
Mean things: dizziness, bewitchment, confusion, noncon kisses
Quirks: Surprise girlsmoochies! I didn't realize when I started this book that 90% of the characters were bi. It will give people something to bitch about, besides the present tense and ten million povs.

This thing has been a helpful well-behaved book all week. I don't trust this at all.

Jodi has finally met the first-tier antag, and we've revealed the Shocking Revelation that 95% of readers will have figured out three chapters ago. Now the fourth piece of my Voltron-angel has shown up, and there may be pyrotechnics.

I need a climbing icon

I only climbed for an hour tonight, but I resent the orange route I managed last time (matociquala gets numbers, I get colors), this time with 75% less panicking and 100% less falling on my ass on the way down. I also made visible progress on another orange that I couldn't even start last week. And I finished another wee baby traverse.

Next stop, cheezburgers!
