Somehow I have bunnies for an adventure story involving pirates. Class today was mostly spent sketching things for said story, and generally not paying attention on account of other random bunnies that were nibbling (that involved Al and Winry, of all characters). I'm not sure what to make of this, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to blame it on this cold I caught from all the otaku at ACen. (Well... I pretty much have to blame the pirate thing on myself. But, well, that's gonna get turned in for my writing class, just to counter all the normal, slice-of-life, poignant sort of things that everyone else has submitted.) Being unable to breathe well causes such strange things to go on in my mind, it seems. It also makes it completely impossible for me to focus on reading. So far, it's taken me an hour to get through 30 pages of this novel. Sigh. At least it's interestingish. The writing's almost too wordy, though, even for me. Which is saying something.
It's a tough life, being a pirate and a ninja. With an otaku cold. Who still has nearly 300 pages of reading to do, and responses to write, and a semi-paper for Thursday then Scav Hunt which is going to kill her zomgah, if the midterm she has to write over the weekend doesn't finish her off first.
Anyone know any short-ish adventure stories I can read? I realized today that I haven't the slightest idea, on account of having read very few, of how they're meant to go. Aside from the adventure bits. How do you manage a style that keeps things happening properly? I don't think I've ever pulled it off...
P.S. Weather? Why is it that, whenever weekend or weekendish activities are about to start, you automatically drop ten degrees? Last weekend was weird, but I forgave you because it was at least warm on the way home, which was the only time I had to be outside. This weekend? Not cool. Tomorrow's going to be 68, then as soon as Scav starts it's magically 57? And around there or less until next Tuesday? Grr.
