So DarkFuse filed Chapter 11, as many already know. I thought about going on PACER and looking at the stuff (I'm a lawyer, I have access to so much) but I kind of don't want to feel sad about it, so I've refrained. In other news, I'm working on a story and I also don't …

So Organized! Not Really.
Quick bit of news - my submission to DarkFuse was returned to me unread with a message that the magazine is on hiatus and they're not looking at anything. Wonk wonk. I still feel weird having a blog, because I doubt anyone finds what I have to say interesting, but since I'm out and about …

Laziness, Basic Bitches, Smoothies, DarkFuse and Rejection: Finding the Right Coffee Shop in Philly
Yesterday was President's Day, and I had the day off. I don't think I've ever had President's Day off, not in my entire career. It was kind of nice. I did the usual "it's my day off so I should do these things" bullshit, like dishes and vacuuming and admonishing the dog for being so …
