Not a good day
Jun. 17th, 2011 06:44 pmFunny how swings and roundabouts life can be. Yesterday I was all whoop de do, today I'm bloody grumpy.
Woke up with a thundering headache due to too much time spent awake listening to himself snore. Too much time awake led to huge amounts of reconsidering this 'n' that to do with ability, validity, wasting my time etc etc [usual 3 am stuff for me] including deciding that a particular story set in a very specific mythology that already has a LOT of words associated with it is a non-runner due to something very similar being published very soon [if it was werewolves or vampires it wouldn't matter, there are MASSES of those but this is a bit unusual]. Lack of sleep meant I didn't keep a proper eye on mum so, for the third week running, she managed to lose some money and is upset about it [I'll sneakily replace it when she's not looking - put it down the side of a chair or something]. Then I got home and walked the dog and got rained on. The cat was sick all down the stairs. And finally I discovered that my very full freezer has packed up and the frozen food I'd just bought has had to be buried under soft fruit etc. in the hope it might not defrost before I can get a replacement.
So I've got my >:( face on and need to do something for fun. I might even have to write something smutty. That always makes me laugh. What? You don't laugh at your sex scenes? My God, I must be doing it wrong!
