		<description><![CDATA[FINALLY GOT AN outline finished.  A rough one.  Along the way I figured another couple points that need worked in, so I&#8217;ll have to do a quick run through and insert as necessary, but it&#8217;s all but done.  I won&#8217;t sweat polishing it much&#8211;the nice thing about an outline&#8211;just pass it to [...]]]></description>

		<title>UP LATE</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I CAN TELL things are creeping back to normal when I have trouble getting to sleep at night, which I finally did last night, after a month of the opposite trouble of not being able to stay awake.  So I put on a DVD of UNDECLARED episodes (There&#8217;s no TV reception up there, so [...]]]></description>

		<title>Learning Snow</title>
		<description><![CDATA[HAVING GROWN UP primarily in Oklahoma I was never a stranger to snow, often experiencing the phenomenon firsthand upwards of once every other year.  Old hat.  But there&#8217;s something different about snow in the northern sticks.  For one thing, once it falls it stays until the spring.  Your boots are always [...]]]></description>

		<title>Plaster Cracks</title>
		<description><![CDATA[HOUSE REPAIR&#8211;SHOCKINGLY&#8211;isn&#8217;t quite as thrilling as I&#8217;d imagined.  I blame the slick edits on home improvement shows.  You pop the paint can open for a color reveal, wet the brushes, and a room winds up primed and painted.  In reality, I spent the better part of two days just trying to cover [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Weekend</title>
		<description><![CDATA[SPENT MUCH OF Saturday disassembling a non-working electric kitchen range.  The fact it isn&#8217;t working is problematic as we can&#8217;t afford to eat out every night, not by any stretch.  But with only a George Foreman grill and a toaster oven, our options are limited.  I don&#8217;t know what I expected to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Week 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[THE COMMUTES ARE long, but they don&#8217;t weigh on me.  Don&#8217;t feel long.  The days just seem a bit shorter.  Leave the house at 7 in the morning, walk back in the door at 9:15 at night.  An hour or so of energy to shower, unpack a box, shuffle items around [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Drive</title>
		<description><![CDATA[THE HOUSE IS warm now, and mostly moved into.  Just a few scattered clothes and books left in our Brooklyn apartment, aside from a TV and an air mattress.  All of this will be gone by Sunday.
We did our first real commute yesterday.  Left work on Tuesday night, got to the house [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cold House Far Away</title>
		<description><![CDATA[WRITING&#8217;S AT A standstill.  The stresses I alluded to in the last post amounted mostly to my wife and I buying a house in a tiny hamlet in Sullivan County, New York.  The whole ordeal wound up taking months, and seemed to fall through so many times that I felt silly writing about [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;d Prefer to Write Itself</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I HAD HOPED that this blog (At least in how it relates to the current project I&#8217;m working on) would only be about research.  However, I seem to have reached a point where there&#8217;s not going to be any much of that any time soon.  For the time being, I think I have [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ellery Queen and Cotton Mills</title>
		<description><![CDATA[SORT OF GOT back into the swing of things with work on this book. 
But first, I should share that I had a couple of nice, unrelated writing achievements.  
&#8211;I sold a short story to Ellery Queen&#8217;s Mystery Magazine.  The story&#8217;s called THE HIDDEN BALL TRICK.  And while I haven&#8217;t been given [...]]]></description>
