When in doubt: get back to work

megwritesNow I play the waiting game, after having run around two different boroughs with my ass on fire (seriously, if you saw a chubby, confused looking white girl with frizzy hair and askew glasses with a butt set all aflame in Midtown or Queens yesterday, that was me).
The manuscript should be in the hands of Quick!Agent or shortly to arrive at her doorstep. Depending on the post office. The nice lady at the USPS says that while you can pay for priority shipping, bribing postal officials won't actually get your mail there any faster. Actually, she didn't say that. I figured that out on my own.
So, I wait. And since I do not possess the prerequisite hand-eye coordination for thumb twiddling, I have to get back to writing.
Right now I'm working on a totally different project, this one is a distinctly urban fantasy. I told you guys I was gonna find the Perfect Vampire Novel whether I had to write it or chain somebody to a keyboard so they would write. Well, nobody's written it yet, so far as I can tell (and sweet Moses on the Mount, how I have looked).
That's all I can say for now, because aside from a few rough character sketches and something that may one day evolve from a single-celled paragraph into a complex, self-aware plot, that's all I have.
Just thought I'd update you. Mostly because I'm giant ball of nerves.
