*SALE!, Dark Poets Column (HWA Newsletter), 4/15 (RT: 1 day)
*Submission, Dark Poets Column (HWA Newsletter), 4/14
*Rejection, Abyss & Apex, 4/12 (RT: 6 weeks)
The poetry article (my first one ever!) should appear in the HWA Newsletter around June 1st, so if you're a member, look for it. If not, Marge will also be reprinting it in Star*Line at some point, so you'll have a chance to read it there.
Everything Else
First, the Max update. He had his weekly weight check today and is currently tipping the scales at 9 lbs., 11 oz., thank you, God! He's up to the 57th percentile, so I'm very hopeful we won't have to supplement his feeding at all. His respiratory rate also seems to be continuing to improve -- though he still has periods where he's up in the mid-sixties, he also has periods where he's down in the 40's (i.e., NORMAL). Again, VERY good news, and I know it's all the prayers coming his way, so thank you all so much!
Unfortunately, he does seem to be showing some symptoms of reflux, which YB had, as well. It doesn't seem to be interfering with his weight gain, so we will probably just try to treat the discomfort it causes him, likely with Zantac.
In other news, did anyone else see CSI last night? "A Space Oddity" -- a Star Trek/Battlestar Galactica spoof/homage, complete with a guest spot by Kate Vernon (BSG's Ellen Tigh) and what looks like both Grace Park and Rekha Sharma in the crowd of fans who hate the new, grittier re-imagined "Alpha Quest." Ronald D. Moore also had a cameo. VERY funny stuff -- best LOL moments I've had in a long while. If you missed it, you can catch the whole episode several different places online. It's worth it to track it down. Trust me.
