Well, I didn't get much done today. 573 words, and each hard-won. My boss sent in his daughter halfway through the day, so the lovely empty afternoon time that would normally be spent writing was instead filled with discussions of her boyfriend, her favorite hair colors, and her classes during college. Blarg!
I will say, she's finally starting to get the hang of the job, so that's nice. She only made one or two mistakes today (though one would have been a big problem down the road if I hadn't caught it). She'll be all right...we just don't have much in common, and she really, REALLY likes to talk. From one to five (minus a blissful hour for lunch) she talked my ear off.
We did talk about my book for a little bit (she asked if it was hard to write, because she saw that I was trying to write it and struggling...due to constant interruptions). I thought she might have a hidden creative writing streak, but as the conversation almost immediately veered back to boys and the kind of mattress she preferred, I think not. Sadness.
Anyway, I want to write a bit more, but I've got to jet off to Art Class. À bientôt, mes amis!
