Heh. Mine's gone too...

You guys are lucky. Mine was still-born.

You probably, at this stage, won't believe me, but it is entirely possible to get by without one. I lost minelast May, it never returned, and yet....you know the happy ending.

May I also recommend a change in the work you're doing? (Egs: Bored with counting books? Do a little light textual analysis instead. Fed up with reading the works of other tossers? Write a chapter. Utterly hate and despise the chapter you're working on? Move to another.) That might pep you up a bit.

It's also a good idea to post alternately depairingly and triumphantly to LJ, to let the world know how much your project sucks/rocks. Really, people never tire of it. ;-)
