Monday morning... blergh!
Have I mentioned how I hate Mondays? It's the feeling of doom associated with them. You wake up, look at the clock and realise that in a couple of hours you'll be sat at your desk again, and you won't get unchained until 5:30. It's a lost opportunity to get something useful done at home, not that that's likely anyway really, but that's how it feels. I can't help thinking the flat would be tidier and I'd be in a generally better mood most of the time if I could just work from home. It's not like I have any distractions there I don't have here.
Part of the reason for this frustration is that I seem to have caught the writing bug again. It's amazing how much of a difference getting feedback makes. I should really thank Thursday for this, as she's patiently read through three of my stories now, and prodded me to do more. There's something nice about people wanting you to write. Makes it seem a lot less pointless than just churning out prose just for the sake of it. I think my first major project will be to finish the nanowrimo novel I started (barely) in November. It needs a couple of bits rewritten and a hell of a lot of fleshing out, but I think it's worth it. I've got a couple of good characters to work with and a plot that suits me. Worth a go, eh?
