What a Day!

Whew! As if I didn't have enough to do at work, I had to take on someone else's work (what else is new?) today too. For a good reason, though. She was out for a death in the family. But, I ended up having to put in OT to get payroll done, on top of my regular work. (Of course, I'll be glad when paychecks get there tomorrow.)

Hmm...I feel like I'm stuck in a rut. I've just been too stressed and brain dead lately to really make a lot of progress on the novel. I thought I'd be finished by now and I'm disappointed that I'm not. I'm ready to revise, but I'm being REALLY good and telling my internal editor to get back in the closet and WAIT UNTIL I'M FINISHED!!! (Otherwise, I'll never finish, but edit over and over and over...until the cows come home.)

Sigh...I guess it's because stress makes me brain dead. I can feel the brain cells die while I'm at work. I can hear their pathetic little screams as they collapse...never to be seen/heard from again.

Will I ever finish this novel? (Of course, I think I've only been working on it about 9-10 weeks, but I'm just sad I'm not cruising any more cause I'm so exhausted.)

Good night, world.
