Mushy-Gushy

It seems like forever since I've done a Friday Loves post. I can easily tell you what I DON'T love today: my computer. I went to write this post and it wouldn't get me anywhere past signing into blogger. And it's constantly telling me to free up space on the C drive, which I do, but it doesn't seem to make a difference cuz the next day I'll get the same message. Argh! Time for a new computer...

Anyway, I'm not supposed to talk about what I don't love but what I do love. There's two things I'm loving right now.

I finished my R&R finally! I get to breathe a momentary sigh of relief while it's out with an amazing beta reader before I get back to work on whatever is wrong with it that I missed. I'm just so happy it worked out- I was seriously stressing this rewrite and I didn't know if it would turn out okay. Fingers crossed that it did! What I love today isn't the fact that I finished it (although that's awesome), but how much I loved writing it. It was scary, but a lot of fun to write since it was almost like starting from scratch. I love this story so much, it puts an insane grin on my face whenever I so much as think about it. No matter what happens with it, this story holds a very special place in my heart.

The second thing I love? I never gushed about how awesome the Les Miserables movie was and I just have to do it now. Gush gush gush!!! The singing isn't exactly Broadway worthy, but the emotion put into the songs was just heart-wrenching. I bawled through most of the movie. It was so so good. A definite must-see if you're good with two hours of singing!

And that is it, I'm done with my mushy-gushy for the day. Back to your regularly scheduled programming...
