When Was I Home Long Enough to Write?
Jul. 4th, 2006 09:11 pmOh, yeah, for a couple of hours tonight.
I was on the road most of the day.
Had breakfast.
Took daughter and her friend to Anime Expo. Dropped them off.
Came home to get boys and went to local Borders that's closing down the end of this week. Bought 75% off journals, bookmarks, and beautiful Asian note cards.
Took youngest to Game Crazy for a (believe it or not) OLD regular Nintendo game. That was before his time, kinda, so he's now enamored of it, in spite of the fact that we have Playstation 2, Gamecube, and X-box. (Also Playstation 1, Super Nintendo, and N64.)
Oldest son took youngest and I to lunch. I had great soup and salad. Too hot to eat heavy food.
Came home in time to get call from daughter to pick her up.
Oldest and I drove down to Anaheim. Picked daughter and her friend up. Stopped at Sonic for food since we have none up here, dropped her friend off in Azusa and then came home. In total the run to get them and food took about TWO HOURS.
She brought home gifts and catalogs, and many wonderful things. :)
Fiddled around with the screenplay again. Used the opening my Muse told me I HAD to use. Racked up a few more words on it.
Theoretically, I'm about 1/6 of the way through with it now. Might have it done by this time next week...maybe sooner.
I haven't been good about keeping word count meters lately. Too interested in the writing process itself. Too tired for much record-keeping.
Going to work on novel more soon. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe after finishing screenplay. I still have time to finish it this month once I'm not distracted with screenplay.
Well, actually, if I use screenplay for class I'm going to take, maybe I'll be more distracted. :)
Anyway, I'm rambling and trying to get this done in a hurry so I can sleep.
I've been really wiped out lately. I think it's from getting used to the new job, working six days in a row, and just not getting enough sleep.
Now, it's caught up with me. Okay, I lied. It caught up with me maybe a week ago. That's part of the reason I haven't been so productive and have been a little down lately.
Time to work on sleep.

Too tired for monthly and annual meters again.
Will catch up on them this weekend. :)
