Writerly Ways

I am just wasting time. I need to stop it. I'm spiraling down into my do-nothing depression phase again. All I managed to do was get the Halloween stuff out of the storage unit and the summer plant stuff in. Mice shit on everything. Thank god 90% is in plastic. The halloween stuff isn't so I had to clean it all. THEN realized i had my brand new shirt on. It took me 4 hours to work up the courage to see if I cloroxed bleached spots on it (I did to the old jogging pants)

Made soup, cooked every dam veggie in the fridge. Attempted to clean fridge. Still have no room. Must stop wasting food.

I was meant to read Aeronaut's Windlass this weekend because it's already over due (and on hold) and I read nothing. I'm never going to finish this monster. I'm beginning to think 600 page books shouldn't be allowed.

My stomach is killing me today (still have 2 weeks before I can see the doc). From the moment I woke up it's been nothing but severe abdominal pain and burning. Sigh. Feels like my esophagus is dissolving.

Hey is anyone doing Nanowrimo this year? I'm pretty sure I can count on silvrethorn & wildrider. Anyone else?

I am considering NaNo. Maybe. In an unofficial sort of way. Maybe.

Ugh to the mouses.

Glad no bleach on your shirt (I had that going on yesterday too, realized I was cleaning in a work shirt rather than a ratty house shirt and, well, I wasn't using bleach but).

I think walking the dog sis giving them fleas. Though I don't see any evidence of fleas on them. They're still scratching like crazy. Bath time this evening.

I hope you do it. Heck it can be officially. The worst that will happen is a you didn't win reminder down the road.

yeah way to not thi nk our cleaning through

fleas or allergies

I'm toying with the idea of trying Nano this year, since I really don't have anything to write for. Then again, I generally write lil one-shots & I'm not sure if I could actually write something longer. XD

I hope your shirt's okay. I did something similar. Had my fave tiger shirt on, cleaned the bathrooms & gave the tiles in the tub area a good bleaching & never noticed that I was rubbing my butt on the tiles while I was cleaning the shower doors. T.T Yet, I did miss getting anything on my leggings, so all's good there. XD

Not good! I hope your stomach feels better. *huggles*

I have my NaNo novel set up, and plot bunnies have appeared once or twice. I think I'm good to go. Good luck to you--any idea yet which project you're choosing for NaNo?

You're not the only do-nothing. Almost my entire writers group has done nothing since early September, myself included. Maybe there's a malaise epidemic going around.

Read the last chapter and take the book back. You're not going to finish it (says the person who kept her last library book for the full two weeks and never even opened it).

Be glad it wasn't rat shit. Or the actual dead rat. Finding the shitter's corpse among your belongings makes the damage seem a hundred times worse. And then there's knowing that stain on the wooden shelf was caused by dead-rat decomp fluids. I wonder how illegal it is to light a big sheet of stained plywood on fire in a suburban backyard?

Yes. I gave up on the idea of the Soldiers of the Sun sequel as a nano because doing the research would just slow me down. I'll be doing another erotica (which I didn't want to do but it's screaming so), I started it a while back. Maybe I can finish it. It's SF, more space opera than hard core SF though

oh geez to the generalize malaise. My writers group too

I'm half way through the book! I just have no reading time. I'm keeping the bastard and paying the fine.

oh the mouse probably IS in there dead (and inside my lazy susan cabinet in the kitchen which has a musky smell I can't find...) But my place has a burn pile

Think of it this way, Nano is free (unless you chose to donate) so what is there to lose by trying?

It's okay thankfully but yeah I've turned good shirts into work shirts (and pants) that way more than once.

thanks. Today is not my stomach's day

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

That's true, so maybe I will try, even if I do it unofficially. XD

That's good they were spared the ruin of unintended bleach spots.

You're welcoem. Feel better.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

that's what ELD is planning too from the sounds of it.

that's good

thanks. Next week I see the stomach doc

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

Sweet!

*nods* Yeah. :D

You're welcoem. Good luck.:D

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. :D

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Hmmmmm.

Seriously. At least we didn't screw the shirts up.

Rogue woke me up multiple times last night scratching.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

same advice I gave Kira. It's free after all

yeah

my bladder woke me up several times last night. Kanda looks like he might have flea dirt. Don't see fleas. sigh

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

True.

We slept pretty well last night. Huzzah

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

good. I only woke up once but still feel more tired than when I went to sleep and the migraine is as bad as it was today as when it started on Thursday

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Geeze, woman.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

my life is exciting
