    <content type="html">You know, it's &lt;em&gt;hard&lt;/em&gt; not to talk about one's job, when one's job takes up the bulk of one's time, waking and sleeping, weekdays and weekends, every day one is not physically incapacitated or out of telephone range.&amp;nbsp; It's a little bit maddening.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I&amp;nbsp;got called back in to work at the &lt;em&gt;first possible minute&lt;/em&gt; after my disability leave was up, and I have been going at it since.&amp;nbsp; I've been so busy clearing the backlog that I've barely written in weeks, and I've been entirely out of social circulation since I&amp;nbsp;got back.&amp;nbsp; I think I've finally got it all under control, at least to the point that I&amp;nbsp;can turn some of my attention back to more enjoyable pursuits.&amp;nbsp; At least I&amp;nbsp;hope so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, nuff said 'bout the job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;nbsp;had my reaction post for &amp;quot;Flashback&amp;quot;&amp;nbsp;half-finished before I&amp;nbsp;got called back, and will happily finish and post if people think it's still worthwhile at this late date .&amp;nbsp; My goal for this week is to finish at least one of the stories I've got in plot-complete draft form and post it &lt;em&gt;somewhere&lt;/em&gt;-- on dw or lj, if I&amp;nbsp;can't get it to AO3-worthy fully beta'd readiness.&amp;nbsp; Time to restore some balance to the life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=2corbies&amp;ditemid=4531" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
