Gray & Blah
Dec. 8th, 2008 02:31 pmI've been feeling out of sorts the last few days. I've been writng 100 words of junk just to not break my daily writing streak--which is a good thing--but I've been wondering what's wrong. I mainly attributed it to post-Nano-ennui, which is part of it. Not that I completed Nano or am any way close to finishing the novel, but I'd hit a bump in the plot that needs to be resolved.
I haven't felt like writing, can't think of a plot for a new story. Last night I found myself in tears three times watching Survivor! (In my defense, they got to see their family members and all were in tears). In my blah mood, I did a Very Bad Thing and downloaded a trial version of a game and liked it so much I bought the full version. No telling how many hours I'll be wasting at it. But it's so fun! If you like those hidden picture puzzles, like the ones in Highlights for children, except much more complicated, this game is for you! May I'll do a review in a few days. But anyway ...
We came over to the coast last night and I'm sitting here this morning looking out the sliding door at bright sunshine and the waves glistening as they roll in with the wind blowing back huge rooster sprays, and the prospect of a fairly warm, pleasant day, compared with the past two weeks at home where it's been foggy and overcast and cold all day, everyday.
Well, duh! Going without sunshine makes me cranky and depressed. And not only that, but my walking partner has been gone for 2 weeks, and it's been so cold and foggy and the grandbaby has had a runny nose and cough, so I haven't walked for 2 weeks. Well, duh! Not exercising makes me blah (Even though I hate to exercise and it doesn't come natural to me, I do it anyway cause I know it makes me feel better).
So I'm going to get the hubby dressed and we're going walking and I'll see if I can jumpstart my brain into giving some writing a go for the rest of the day.
Added 12/8/08: Walking felt great. Coast weather was great. Friends came so writing time was basics only. Came home to more gray and cold. Haven't seen the sun here at home now for 2 weeks. Crap I hate winter.
