Hey there, all...

The past few days have been a little odd. I've been trying to be productive, but everything I've done has been largely frustrating. Hopefully, I'll be able to reverse that trend soon. I...just don't think conditions are right for me to be adequately creative, and I have the sneaking suspicion that my subconscious is shooting me in the foot. I'll have to ring its turkey neck, someday, but for now I have to live with it, coax it into distraction maybe by giving it a piece of mental chicken.

Hmmm...I don't quite know how people make these nifty lists and stuff that they cross off and all that stuff (How do you *do* that, Sylvan??), but here's a list of projects I should be working on:

+ Writing the next Boomer Express strips.
+ Working on the descs for all characters on Tapestries.
+ GETTING STARTED ON ATTEMPT No. 5!
+ Catching up on e-mail conversations I've been neglecting.
+ Writing up character sheets for "The Bane of My Salvation".
+ Working on a script for "Bird".
+ Washing the dishes.
+ Just washing the dishes.
+ Collecting poetry to read for MFM.
+ Making a cheat sheet for the Spirituality 101 panel at MFM.
+ Starting to write for "Crisis Elemental".
+ Submitting new chapters for "Larger Than Life".
+ Writing macro stories to submit to MegaMorphics.

And the list goes on...

I need better time management skills.

I got the idea for a 'theme song' of sorts for "The Bane of My Salvation," so I'll probably work a little on that tonight, too. Hopefully I'll have something to be proud of when I wake up tomorrow morning.

Recently I've been feeling the need to write something, to create something, a lot more urgently. It's like I get this nagging feeling like if I don't learn how to become productive now then I never will and I'll just become one of those people who 'could have been' but never quite made it. I'm hitting this age that's supposed to be one of amazing opportunity, and I'd better get ready for it. Now's the time where I should be beginning to roll.

So I should stop procrastinating.

Anyway, it seems that I really should kind of...back off from so many social activities. You never learn anything by talking, right?

Roommate's here, and he's talking to me. I'm gonna have to cut this short.
