The Weekend Ahead - AKA the Caity To-Do List
So I have FINALLY finished up round one of edits on Proxy and sent copies out to my two beta readers and my mom-the-english-teacher, and that means I actually have free time again.
Or... well... semi-free time. Ish?
Anyway! I have plans and things to accomplish this weekend, and as posting my to-do list seemed to help motivate me last time, I'm thinking it sounds like a plan!
1. Put in more part-time applications. I really need to get my debt in order, so I really need to do this (and possibly get a room mate). Honestly if I work my ass off, I can get it all paid down in less than a year. I just need to get in gear and DO IT. I've already applied to a few places but keep getting the "overqualified" crap back. Seriously - why do people care if I have a degree but am still willing to work for minimum wage? Anyway, I'm applying at:
-Lowes
-Cinemark
-HEB
-Target
-Kohls
2. Start trying to actually plot on my hetbang Gamble/Letty fic. My utter lack of plot has really made this![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
hetbigbang a lot more intimidating than last year's was. I just didn't have a freaking clue on what needed to happen between these two beyond snarking and sexy times. I had a lucky break earlier though when ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
irony_rocks put the idea of a doing a 5-Times fic into my head. I figured out a while back with the Tinman fandom that I can manage a vaguely chronological story series pretty well. I just have to settle on the theme for the 5 Times/Things, and I think I would be in business.
That said - any ideas for what that 5 Times theme could be? - with a vaguely hetfocused theme if possible lol.
3. Get caught up on work. Overtime is never my favorite thing on a Saturday but we are freaking swamped and I missed 5 hours today while I got my AC repaired. So yeah, first thing in the morning.
4. Try to get some progress in my yard on the flower beds I'm planning. Frankly I just need to do ANYTHING progress wise. It may only be finally getting the edging in the ground so I know what shape I'm going to have to clear out. I just need to do something ya know?
OK so the list isn't actually as long as I thought it was... I guess it's just that each part has either large blocks of time I have to dedicate to them, or else lots of little steps to work with. We'll see what I can manage aye?
