I finally finished my [community profile] genprompt_bingo card... so of course I went out and got a new card for a different bingo challenge. *wry*

The challenge in this case is [community profile] ladiesbingo, for stories about relationships between two or more female characters. Which is so totally up my alley I couldn't resist. :)


my card )

I'm a little unsure how to handle a few of these -- for example, farce is really not my forte -- but we'll see how it goes!

Rules: 500 word minimum per fill, fills must focus on relationships between two or more female characters, no more than one borderline fill per five fills. (See community FAQ for definitions of borderline fills.)

Stuff I have done over the past few days:

1. Attended two online sessions of a WebEx tax course on capital assets. I still have to do the practice exercises before I can access the final exam, but I should be able to do that next Wednesday even if the cloud program download continues to fail for me.

2. Attended my third and final online session of a WebEx tax course on retirement accounts (contributions and distributions). Again, I still need to do the practice portion before I can access the exam, but see above.

3. Gave blood! My hemocrit was only 12.6, but the cutoff is 12.5 so whatever, I win. I think the iron supplement pills are helping, since I'm in the middle of my period which would otherwise probably drop me below the cutoff point. (Bodies, ugh.)

4. Wrote some stuff. :D

5. Met online with my Spanish dialogue partner and recorded our three exercises. \o/

6. Did this week's Government class reading and quiz. I got another 100%, even though a couple of the questions were badly phrased. (The beautiful thing about multiple choice options where you have four questions with the exact same set of answers is that you can find the right answer to the badly-phrased question by the process of elimination, since the other three answers are clearly correct for three other questions and the professor is unlikely to reuse answers as a trick. ...I do generally assume professors aren't trying to play tricks. I believe the general form of the rule is something like, never assume malice when ordinary stupidity/error will explain the problem just fine on its own. *wry*)

7. Got one day ahead on this week's Spanish exercises.

8. Started reading the story I'm editing for this year's NFE. It's a good story. Y'all will like it. :DDD

9. Delivered brownies to Upstairs Neighbor K, Upstairs Neighbor P, and Mini Upstairs Neighbor S. Also delivered brownies to Diagonal Neighbors T and Z. (Tangential dispatch from the department of weird minor coincidences: Mini Upstairs Neighbor S shares a name with one of my Aunt Cara's cats. Former Mini Upstairs Neighbor C shares a name with my mom's cat, whom she had to give to a friend when she married my dad. This amuses me.)

10. Politely declined to attend a potluck and planning session for my new church hospitality team, since it's on a Saturday when I'll be at work.

11. Called my dad to sing him Happy Birthday over the phone, which is a tradition I have established for both friends and family. He reports that he and Mom enjoyed the birthday card I sent. (I saw the card and knew immediately that I had to buy it and send it to either Dad or Mom, because it fits in perfectly with a longstanding family joke. Dad's birthday just happened to come first. Also, Mom wants me to buy another copy and deliver it to her so she can send it to one of her friends, with whom she has a similar joke. (The joke is about salad bowls. Don't ask.))

12. Called Vicky to catch up.

All in all, it's been a fairly productive four-day break from work. But tomorrow it's back to the salt mines for me, and my first jump back into large apartment tour groups. *sigh*
