WCB Day 2
Tuesday word count starting: 108, 273. Tuesday word count ending: 107, 142. Progress. Sadly Sgt. Munoz had to go. I really liked him, too.

Random Book Updates and Too Much D&D.
No posts and now two posts in one day. Woo! Today is hopefully the last day of the roof construction. I misspoke in my previous post. We are actually on week 3, not week 2. My temper and nerves are frayed to the maximum capacity, so hopefully this will be coherent. Business Stuff Magic Clams
