Yesterday i charged through the day, expending everything too early. The late afternoon and evenings were spend distracting myself wih random surfing (hence the random book reviews) and then some random watching of videos. (I wrapped up the Doctor Who episodes of The Talons of Weng-Chiang.) I need to be more disciplined about the early morning calls and my energy for the day, albeit i need more discipline with energy across my whole life.

I can't believe May is about here, too. I have again not followed through on efforts around cycling. The infection a few weeks ago really did knock my energy away.

As far as Writer's Way type writing, i hardly type out three pages worth, no matter how you define that. On the other hand, i'm no so tied to the instructions that TAW provides regarding the writing as the writing i do, when i do it without letting myself be distracted by email and such, really does provide me with the conduit to find out what's bugging me and what inner wisdom i have. There's something else that happens as i spend my early morning at the keyboard, though, and i wish i knew what it was because it seems to be absent when i turn on work brain for 6 am phone calls.

A current challenge remains around correspondence and journaling. Not sure how to meet it, because i'm not sure how much journaling is therapeutic and how much is vain navel gazing and how much is communication to this community.

Off to wrap up lingering email from yesterday.

This morning, via skype, during the 7:30 am conference call:

Auth*Colleague: what conference are you at today?
Me: 100th anniversary of the 1909 Copyright law
Auth*Colleague: :-) you are such a nerd!

The conference had great speakers, fascinating content, adequate vegetarian lunch options, and really dreadful "hot" water for tea that tasted of stale coffee.

By the way, i have five δreamwidth codes. I assume most people who wanted one must have gotten one during the day (mactavish?)

Meanwhile, reading more about current copyright on the copyright office website, puzzling out whether i have actually "published" artistamps (by making copies and distributed them to the public) and therefore should have submitted two copies under the mandatory deposit act.
