Procrastinating...

So, I'm sitting here with three scenes left to write in act one of Mantle, at least two of which I know are going to be short, and I'm procrastinating. I know it's good to take a break every now and then, but I really want to get this first act of the story written before 9 Eastern. Yeah, that gives me about five hours to play with, I know. Why am I worrying.
My day today was reasonable, I suppose... the main event being that every year group (grade) in the school where I work was recording one carol for a Christmas CD the school will be releasing this year - oh, only to the parents and other relatives, but still, it's a nice idea - except that it meant that, at only the beginning of November, there we were singing Christmas Carols. I was /so/ tempted to download the lyrics from one of the Twisted Christmas album (that I still haven't heard), and get them to sing that - but that would have gone down like the proverbial lead balloon.
Speaking of singing - first dress rehearsal for the opening of the Curve theatre is on Sunday evening. And I'm interested to see how it all sounds and comes together. So far we've all been practising our own parts separately from each other. Haven't met Ms Clarke yet - or the rest of the gospel choir. LOL Should be interesting.
Saw a brief clippie from 11th Hour - looked quite interesting... had the kind of script style that I like. Wonder if that show will jump the pond. Either way I can already hear certain people sharpening their fan-fic pencils. (I, however, have quite enough on my plate right now).
