4) Ron left our workplace laptop at home, so I'm using that. Wasted 15 minutes trying to pair the wireless keyboard and mouse. Spent another 15 searching for the cord to Benny's boombox so I don't have to listen to the loudly humming refrigerator. But then I started really kicking ass: by 12:30 I had added 1,000 words to the Prologue, and by 1:30 we were finally in San Francisco!
5) Tomorrow: start Chapter 1: "This House Won't Sell."

4) Lots of spinning wheels today. Wrote a few paragraphs of Chapter 1. Started reading old blog posts to refresh my memory and read all the way back to 2005. Started searching online for old articles I wrote in Michigan and discovered another Christine Kilpatrick who runs a touring company for Twilight fans. I hope people don't think it's me. Sent emails. Wrote a long blog post on how the distractions of the Internet keep us from focusing on our tasks. Hmmm, ironic.
5) Tomorrow: Keep plugging at Chapter 1.
