Today smells like Hinoki wood oil and wool and frost.

I need to find someone else who is a slow writer to be an accountability buddy and keep me on track for a WIP, but I am not sure who to even ask about that, since everyone else I know who writes go on the long tears of writing and doesn’t write like, 200 words a week.

And I ache right now, so I’m not going to do much about that tonight.

Ha...like what? Like, it's taking me forever to write my shit on AO3, so...

Yeah, that’s true. I guess my brain is doing the “disqualification” thing since you and others like Merlin seem to be online here less than once a week.

Sorry, my brain is a bit wack at the moment. I woke up at 3 AM in time to have a migraine, and now I’m just… having a migraine hangover during a bad body day. I am probably going to whine a lot today, just so you know.

Yeah, well, i kinda am in the middle of a "I mentally/physically feel likd shit" and executive dysfunction period, and while I'm trying to pull myself out of it, it's not working so well.

Hell I felt so much like shit yesterday (Headache+sinus pressure+bathroom iss8ues) that we didn't go to work yesterday.

It doesn't help that I don't have much ready-made "I can just slap it in the microwave" food in the house, and I very much need to eat. :( >.>

I'm trying not to use this space to whine too much, but dammit, I'm stuck in this loop of needing familiar voices, even if it's new content with them.

I've been snapping up a headmate's canon almost as fast as I can reasonably afford, and almost as quickly as I finish a novel of theirs, and it's woring them and Craimar and Kaelaren...and I don't know how to make it any different or any better for anyone involved just now. *sighs*

Just...blurg, y'know?

Hey my journal is a great place to complain! Step right up and process your feelings and thoughts here!

I’m sorry that it is your turn to carry the executive dysfunction ball. That is always a shitty time. I hope someone else can help out with the execution of tasks and chores.

*hugs*

I dunno. Sometimes we need a motivational buddy in meatspace to get us going-or a mighty damn big reason.

Usually someone else can wiggle through, but it's not happening this time, much to the annoyance of those here.

I think part of it is the fact that we're also revelling in the fact that we're not being poked at for taking as much time as *we* need to work through things. At this point if nothing gets done it's on *us* not anyone else, and while that's inevitably not a good thing (The house falls down anround us, metaphorically speaking) it still is, because we can lay in bed and read all day if *we* want to, and no one can tell us not to.

It also doesn't help that we've been off the supplements for a while, and we know it.

If you want my phone number so that we can do body doubling / projects and chores time while we talk, I have some free time Thursday afternoons?

[we_are_spc]

...That would be fantastic, yes plz?

I did manage to do a few things (due to coming home from work early) so I'm at least not as faar behind as I once was, thank the gods.
