I'm in the middle of revisions right now, so my brain is mush and I find myself thinking things like "You know, I've never cleaned out the hall closet!

Justine Larbalestier has a great blog post that sums up what I'm feeling right now, actually, and it is--naturally--far more eloquent about the whole thing than yours truly can ever hope to be.
