(no subject)

So much for good intentions - didn't even get to read much, ended up chatting with friend on MSN, listening to her angst about long-distance-relationship-that-may-or- may-not-mean-as-much-to-him-as-to-her.
Tea remains the best drug, but it's definitely improved/augmented by chocolate. Green & Black's Maya Gold organic dark chocolate, to be specific. Happy me. Happy dopamine receptors.

Getting published

Whoa! Arrived home from work, found the latest copy of a national journal in my front hall, with a poem of mine in print! Yay, been waiting, wasn't sure which issue it would be in.

In email inbox, page proofs from another journal article with the heading "URGENT - FINAL NOTICE". Apparently they were sent out some time back?? I certainly didn't receive them. However, if the editor doesn't get corrected copies back by noon tomorrow, either the article will be pulled, or published as is with errors in situ. And there are errors, I can see that at even a brief glance. The article has also been edited for "content, sense and style." I really hate it when editors take out all my semicolons. Bleah.

Guess what I'll be doing tonight...
