Tiredness
I’ve had so little sleep over the past few days I’m sure I’ll be needing industrial strength wrinkle cream soon.
Today when hubbie got up at nine he sent me back to bed to rest and I didn’t see the light of day until almost one. I still feel drained, but I’ve at least been able to do the dishes and get something to eat.
However, I’ve not written anything for a few days, especially not on NaNoWriMo. I need to see if I can write some more, but it’s been difficult to focus with the lack of sleep affecting my creativity.
Poetry: You Did Not but You Did
Warning: a rare warning on this one because it contains coarse language. I found this as I was going through an archive of a now closed blog. It was originally written in October of 2008.
You Did Not but You Did
You did not bear me,
But you wore me down.
You did not break me,
But I’m fractured all the same.
You did not kill me,
Yet you buried me with lies.
You did not fuck me,
But you screwed me over.
40 words
That’s all I’ve been able to manage today; but then my lack of brain usefulness was my own fault for trying to use NyQuil as a sleeping pill last night. I was hungover all day. It was about as productive as eating nothing but cookies is for fast weight loss.
I got to sleep, sure…but the medicine wanted me to sleep for the entire day and so I was groggy, foggy, irritable and narcoleptic. Not great for achieving anything. I’m lucky I managed to get groceries, but then that was helped with a Dew infusion. I’m definitely off the caffeine though. It took me several hours to drink the Dew. I used to down an enti
NaNo Stall
I’m stalled with NaNoWriMo once again. The past few days I’ve not been feeling so great, and haven’t been up to much in the way of writing, and so other than a few hundred words that I wrote last night I’ve been around 14000 for the past few days, current goals indicate that it’s supposed to be around 28K by now, so I’m halfway behind again and I’m not sure what I’d be doing as far as catch up because I seem to have lost the thread of where I was going somewhere along the line.
I’m trying to skip ahead a little in the hopes of picking things up, perhaps I can talk about one of Kelsey’s alters being interested in
Brain Dead
So, today I haven’t written anything, at least for NaNo. Breaking my own pledge from this morning. I just haven’t been able to focus or come up with where things should go. I tried distracting myself, looking up how to burn fat in different ways, working on our Etsy shop, taking photographs, taking my son on a walk, doing the dishes, reading up on different things for a game I’m supposed to be participating in, but nothing.
I have 55 minutes if I’m going to keep my “write at least something a day” rule; because I’m hoping not to get into that spiral where it goes several days without writing anything
