I think I'm supposed to write another anecdotal entry about the wonderful world of writing.  For the past couple of days, I've been trying to think of new ideas, and new characters, but nothing seems to come together, that I'm real excited about.  I am making some progress, but rather than rehash the same ol' same old, I'm just going to say, I'm mildly pleased at the progress, but at the risk of repeating some of my previous complaints, I'll just leave it at that.  I'm doing my best to make this novel sound as plausible, and competent as it can be, so I'm trying to set the bar high on this.  Anyway, thats my story and I'm sticking to it.
