mousmeI don't remember how the time went by so quickly. I really don't.
I've been getting an average of nine hours of sleep every night, and I'm still tired. Part of that is because I'm going to bed late (by my standards —remember, your mileage may vary) and getting up later. This has two disadvantages: one, I'm generally a morning person, and so waking up at 9:30 or 10:00 means that the more productive part of my morning is pretty much gone by the time I'm up; two, I tend to stay up later to compensate for not having accomplished as much during the day, even though I'm not as productive in the evenings. Thus the vicious cycle starts.
It doesn't help that a lot of my friends are night people, or at least have to be night people because they work all day. I try to match up my schedule so that I can spend at least a little time with them, but I tend to be wiped when I get home. Unfortunately, "wiped" doesn't usually translate into falling asleep right away. I usually have to wind down before going to bed, either with a bath (and a book) or by rummaging around on the internet.
Part of me is really pleased that I don't have to worry about working this month. I really, really needed the extra sleep, the time to myself, etc. The other part of me is running around like a caged rat, shrieking with anxiety about the fact that I'm about to run out of money, the fact that I haven't worked in three weeks and that at this rate no one will ever want to hire me again, etc, etc. NaNoWriMo has been a great distraction for not thinking about how stressed I am about all this sort of thing. Unfortunately, it's also a great distraction for all the things I still need to be doing this month.
Off to find something for breakfast. If I have all the ingredients, I may try out![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
toughlovemuse's pancakes that she made last night during the writing jam. She gave me the recipe for the batter when I asked for it. Yay!

Tell me about it...

psychotic obsessive stalky Misery-esquedrooling squeeing fanbase expect another update of Crisse, des zombies!, hmm?Re: Tell me about it...

Date: 2006-11-14 03:48 pm (UTC)Seriously, I have to say that I've been really enjoying Cdz!(ZC)/ASotLD a great deal. You write a much better novel than Newt Gingrich, that's for sure, and if HE could get published...:). Thanks for sharing it with us.

Date: 2006-11-14 05:02 pm (UTC)I was also quite surprised at just how obsessed a lot of writers are with zombie sex. Seriously, dude, they're dead! The odds of them being able to do anything except shamble around, eat people, and decay are slim to none. Blechh.
No worries.
