Wishing Everyone a Happy Qixi Festival

Yet the author was still alone, hundreds of miles from home, attending a friend's wedding. My mindset had exploded, so I was taking the day off today.

All right, seriously, I truly had no time today. I had to go pick up the bride at six tomorrow morning, and I'd write after getting home tomorrow night.

By around the twentieth, work would quiet down too, and I'd have more time to write. When that happened, just like last month, I'd do a few more ten-thousand-word updates.
