So, I did everything on my little list from yesterday except clean the sink. I don't want to clean the sink, but I will do it before I go to bed.

I did go to the gym. It was . . . interesting. I felt really out of place. All the guys were big and muscley and intimidating. The women were thin and tan and perfect and intimidating. Noticing a trend? Me ( Read more... )

I realized something today. I have been eating a lot less junk the past few days and really being mindful of what goes in. I also started adding more fiber and water to my diet. You would think the logical result of these actions would be a general feeling of wellbeing and an increase in energy. Not so much. Why? Because I am sure that my body is ( Read more... )

I have got to be kinder and gentler (is that a word?) with myself. I am mad at myself for eating Pad Thai and 2 effing spring rolls today . . . and chocolate . . . and other garbage. I also didn't do anything today but watch Brit Coms. At least the upside of that is that they were comedy and not dreary stuff like I usually watch on marathon. I feel ( Read more... )

I still have 1000 or so words to write before midnight in order to meet today's quota. I am so not interested. I just don't care. I am tired and I want to go to sleep.

Today I am entirely uninterested in writing, but I am doing it anyway. I am half way to my word quota for the day, so that's good I spose. Nanowrimo has this new thing on their site that tracks your progress which might be just what I needed to keep me motivated. I don't want it to show that I am behind schedual or that I didn't write enough on any ( Read more... )

I am procrastinating. Today's been a bummer. Found out that Jake is going to be deployed at the beginning of December - so no Christmas. I am feeling very Sherriff of Nottingham at the moment "And call off Christmas!".

I am entirely uninterested in working on Nanowrimo, but I know that I just have to "break on through to the other side". I have to ( Read more... )

I have written my quota for the day and I have decided that this is going to be nothing more than an exercise in completion. I don't want to sound angsty, but my writing has really suffered over the years. I don't know why that is - maybe I wasn't such a great writer to begin with, but I certainly don't remember it being as hard as all this. I ( Read more... )

I need only to listen to Elvis.
