ostarellaWell, due to nervous energy, I concentrated on finishing Chapter 8 (draft). Tried to do that lj-cut thing, but it didn't seem to want to work for me. Figures.
My son is coming in tonight from LA - smack into a major snow storm. Worried sick all ready. I'm supposed to work tonight - and the money would be great - but I'm a bit worried about driving 30 miles in a storm like that in the middle of the night; plus having to drive home in the morning, after whatever's coming has really hit. I told the boss I'd try to get in (since we both knew the storm was going to be bad, and she knows how far away I live) but I won't chance going in the ditch for a paycheck. Not with the wind chills the way they're supposed to be.
Anyway, really just rambling on because I can't concentrate on much of anything. I think I even cut chapter 8 down from what I had thought it would be, just because I couldn't really think about that any more. But then again, maybe it's better for not having me waffle on with it.

Date: 2007-12-23 02:21 pm (UTC)As to lj-cut - well, you're not the only one who can't figure it out! However, what I did figure out (eventually) is that there is a one touch button to do it when you're writing a new post. When you post to journal, you'll see all your formatting options as always above the post box. One of them has a few lines and a squiggle underneath - if you hover the cursor over it it will announce itself as LJ cut. Press it and you will get a grey box to write all your 'cut' text into. I found it by accident the other night after my hundreth attempt at using the code.
