These Shoes Were Made For Running...

So in preparation for kick-off Monday, I made a quick trip to the shoe store this afternoon:

 

Those may look like just ordinary sneakers, but they are in fact ASICS TN826 athletic shoes featuring the ASICS Gel^TM Cushioning System.  This cutting edge technology absorbs harmful shock by dissipating vertical impact and dispersing it into the horizontal plane.  Ah yes, with these shoes--and their amazing mastery of Newtonian physics--that treadmill doesn't stand a chance!

On the writing front, I printed out a reading copy of the first draft of my new book:

 

In that binder is the very first printout of my second novel.  Kind of a big deal, actually, if I can take a moment to feel good about it.  As a first step in the rewriting process, I am going just read through the draft and get myself back into the story.  I need to just forget about all the mechanics and just remember why I needed to write this story.  Hopefully, I find myself as excited and in love with the world as I was when I first put the original outline together.  I've got a lot of hard work ahead of me, and I need to get in there and remember what I was doing this for in the first place.

So those were my big steps for the day.  I'm still sort of in vacation mode, so I don't expect to make too much progress over the weekend.  We'll see how it goes...
