The horror and the Plan

First off...it snowed! It snowed for a long time, and even though it's the wet fluffy kind of snow that just melts as soon as it hits the ground, it's still strangely gratifying to know that it does snow, this far south in China. The folks back home in Korea and Chicago  have been taunting us with their photos of snow, so it's nice to send one back.

Now onto the horror: this morning I woke up to the sound of chewing. As this was before sunup (it's still before sunup FYI) I couldn't see a darn thing, but that sound should always worry a pet owner. I scrabbled along the nightstand and found my earphones, but alas were too late to salvage them. The cat bit through the cord pretty much and now I must go out and buy new headphones. ARGGHHH. What makes it worse is that these are Skullcandies and while they are inexpensive in the States, the local mall, which has a Skullcandy store, were selling these for 800RMB which translates into about $130.

WTF!!! These are selling on Amazon for $50 right now, so you can understand my dismay. Admittedly, I didn't look at all the other headphones in the store so maybe they'll have some decently-priced ones, but I'm not feeling particularly encouraged.

I want to be angry at the cat, but now she has crawled into my blanketed lap and refuses to leave.

I need one of these...

 

ANYWAYS...

Now onto the plan part!

Before I fell asleep, I sat up in bed and made out my writing plan for the next few months and, let me tell you, things are looking very, very busy.

DECEMBER 2013
  BITE
  KISS THE SHADOWS

JANUARY 2014

  FOR A DUKE'S LOVE
  RAZING HELL

FEBRUARY 2014

  SNOW PRINCE
  WOLVES AND BRIMSTONE
  HIS LADY DANGEROUS

MARCH 2014
  THE SHINJUKU AFFAIR (Still a bit iffy on the title)

So, according to the plan I've charted out for my myself, by the end of March, I should have put out an additional 7 new products out under the FIONN JAMESON/FIONA SHIN (my historical writing penname).

That's a lot.

...I should probably get to it...
