Kirk looking like a pimp


Just got back from playing pool; I've improved since last week, which is good. In a few more sessions I should be almost back to my competition standards from Uni.... It's very frustrating to try and compensate for eyes which aren't as clear as they should be and to always remember to pull left slightly due to the cataract that skews my aim. But still! I can play! The final score was 4-3 to Dave.

Tomorrow's going to be busy, I think. The downstairs bathroom seems to have developed a case of damp, so I need to go and call either the letting agency or the landlord; and then tidy the house for when they all troop round to inspect it. The wall it backs onto in the lounge also seems to be displaying slight signs of damp. I think there's a leaking pipe somewhere....

I'm considering revising one of my posted stories (an unbetaed one, I should point out); I've been reading a lot about writing technique in the past few days, and after a quick "find", I've discovered that I've got loads of adverbs which have been used weakly. There are some great articles on fanficwriter.com about revising your work and eliminating weakness, so forcing myself to work through a proper revision process will probably be beneficial.

And now, I'm going to go do some housework. Oh, the excitement!!
