Key is to get the aspirin early, so it's into your bloodstream before the yeast byproducts hit. But certainly, the water doesn't hurt at any point.
Tonight, I had pizza and a bottle of (cheap) sparkler. It looks like I went from no work at all, to WAY too much. I actually called someone that I had been talking to about work and declined the job. Turned out my editor at MS Press wants me to jump in and do a book that has been troubled. It will be a good seller, almost certainly, so worth focusing on it for the next 3 months. A ridiculous schedule (of course), but one I can do if I focus on only the one thing. Well, plus the tech reviews I'm doing. But NOT going to take on another project beyond that. Though as soon as I finish this, we're already talking about a completely new idea I have for a book that she's really excited about, since it lines up with something she'd been thinking of independently. If it comes together, would be a nice, steady stream for a while. Wouldn't that be a change!
