Yawn!

Tired. I can tell my writing's getting purple-y. I'm not entirely sure this section is undeserving because goshdarnit, it's about time things had some description, but... huh. I don't know. My characters just switched all their motivations on me again today (Heather's gone less paranoid and more bitter again, her boss is a giant mass of ambiguity, and my internet-stalker-turned-plot-device is now threatening to sneak out of the story entirely while at least two people are suddenly a lot more in line with the whole getting killed off thing, which was nearly out the window). This pretty much means I'm going to have to rewrite the entire first two chapters. As soon as I finish them. Which means I finish decorating this apartment with words, throw in a few phone calls, and... well, at that point that's pretty much that. Sleep seems so much nicer now, but I've got comments to write out and TV show ideas to write down and... rargh, so much writing. And I'm hitting the point again where my margins are full of extraneous ideas. (Like a rather bizarre fantasy based very loosely on a bit of Richard II. I've got an odd feeling my Shakespeare class is going to be my random plotting class, though the bus is equally responsible for this random short story bunny I have that has to do with a laundromat and a chatty homeless woman. Not sure what to make of that one. Oh, and there's a lot of smoking in my stories. I just noticed that yesterday. Especially with this novel-thing I have going on. Everyone's all "oh, need something to do. smoking now!" At least Heather's avoided it so far. Unless she changes on me again, I know she's not a smoker.) So, those are my random thoughts for now, as I chug along through page 16 and (hopefully before 5:00, which is honestly when I planned to be at 20) onto 17.

This world has a youtube channel. I can see now why so many people are doomed.

[6:38AM] The sun is coming up. As I looked out the window, a school bus drove by. While I was wondering whether kids had to already be on the bus this time of morning, I noticed it said "Sunrise" in large letters. Thanks, world. I needed help with figuring that out.

[10:57AM] I am so tired I hurt. Also, the "if you can't say anything nice" rule is severely impeding my ability to write decent comments. They'd eventually get nice, because I'm that way, but right now I can't get past the initial "oh dear goodness please don't do this again" enough to start with something nice that doesn't sound... fake. I should also be in class now. Oops.
