Though my break started Friday after work, today is the first day where I officially don't have to go to any classes. Though I don't appreciate it getting cut short by the DST change, I appreciate that its happening now instead of when I have a test or something the following Monday. I hate running on one less hour of sleep.

There are a ton of things I want to do over break, mostly involving getting preparred for my big move (again) when I graduate this May. This would include finding an apartment, buying more work-appropriate clothing (don't think jeans will cut it at the office), and getting my taxes done. Not to mention the countless things I have to start getting addresses sorted out (both snail and e-mail).

I've got an appointment today to look at apartments located about 5-10 minutes from where I'm working, and will be trying to get in touch with the company about a start date once I figure out what the availability will be. My dad's already said he doesn't have a problem with me living with him for a few months while something opens up, but I don't want to be any more a burden on him financially than I have already been.

But why did I drop this into the Inuva category? Because this week I hope to add at least 2-3 new chapters. I've already got one in the works that will hopefully be up by the end of the day today. The next hopefully Wednesday, and the last if I'm lucky by Friday before I start having to pack up to go back to the apartment. This is unfortunately turning into one of those really long projects like Te Mutunga and The Alliance. But its a story I wanted to tell and I do want to see it through.

Things may end up changing a bit from my original plan, especially if graduation starts getting closer and I haven't gotten it moving at a more regular pace. It doesn't help that when I'm in the mood to write and post the servers get clogged. There have been entire days when I've been unable to get into the forums. It makes it tough to get any sort of momentum going. I use that time to write out outlines and get chapter elements planned. But it still throws me off my groove.

Thanks to everybody who's still sticking with it. I promise I'm not going to let this disappear. If you were a fan of Te Mutunga or The Alliance you know that eventually I'll get to an ending. I just hope I do so before most people forget I was writing it.
