Round 75: Hour 40

[a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com]

Hello, helloooooo!! I'm finally here. *Taps modem* Yup. Still here whoot!! - I have had my coffee (as such), got a list of chores I am ignoring *chuckles* and two fics that want to be written. I also have four shows that need watching, exercises to do and studying to do.

And chores. Did I mention them?

Blah.

Hope everyone else is more organized and on the ball than I am this morning! Sound off in the comments! Tell me of you procrastinations and your progresses.

Can always use another shiny distraction!

Reviewed last night's wordage, started logging my sources, plotted the next section I'm going to tackle. Also went off into a rabbit-hole (searchable online copy of A Distant Mirror) and narrowly escaped.

Whoot!! You have accomplished much, m'dear. Your timely escape and being able to tell us the tale shows of your strength. And course-plotting...whew. Thou art a better woman than I!

*Waves pompoms!*

I made tea without killing myself! That should not be as much of an achievement as it it, but given my day, I'll take what I can get. Got my notebook and file open so I'm ready to go. More or less.

[a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com]

I consider it an achievement! Then again, I hauled myself out of bed, so my standards may be slightly skewed, lol!

Writewritewrite! And enjoy that tea! Though has earned it!

*HUGS*

I have awakened! I'm debating whether I want to do the Things or if I want to watch Jerry Springer: The Opera again because thesis nostalgia.

[a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com]

*Fans you* Oh, wonder of the morning. You have risen and the populace is grateful!

Things take too much effort. Whereas Jerry Springer does not...especially because nostalgia and other lovely feelings...

*curtsies dramatically*

*Beams* M'lady...

Whoot!! Be sure to tell us of the Awesomeness...when you have a moment that is. :D

I haven't been here until now, because I'm just not feeling the writing thing, and haven't been for a while now. I shall be whining about it to my psychiatrist tomorrow, though I don't know what he can do about it - most anti-depressants either don't work or send me manic (and given my weird mania, that wouldn't help because I'd be in too much of a bad temper to write ::sigh::).

But I did do some organising and scrapbooking yesterday, and have answered an email that I'd been putting off today, so maybe that means I can stay.

Off to do some more scrapbooking now.

Aww, honey. Tis okay. Fic Rush is also here for support and sympathetic squishes. *Squishes you* Sometimes our brains just wanna be asshats and that can lead to the non-writing. Talking to a professional though...that can help. Hope he can come up with solutions that won't be so awful!

Whoot!! Proud of you! Scrapbooking is part of Doing Things...and answering that email is a major achievement in my book (I've had a few emails like that, lol!)

Have fun - and if you need another squish, don't be afraid to stop by!

[rosiedlotrfan.livejournal.com]

Thank you - squishes do help!

The email wasn't at all bad, I just have no energy and enthusiasm at the moment :( But I'm doing all the coping things, setting myself small goals and telling myself I'm being successful by doing all the little things, which has at least got me motivated to come here.

But I have fic fests with deadlines fast approaching, and I really don't want to default, especially since if I manage to write the fics that will make me feel so much happier with myself.

Oh well, see how tomorrow's appointment with the trick-cyclist goes and then decide.

[a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com]

I'm so glad!! I like to squish people and make them feel better. :D

Aww, I get that, honey. Been there myself a few times. just tired and BLAH and don'wanna. And yes! Small steps! Always the place to start. and with zero energy, it makes those accomplishments that much MORE. *Nods*

Aww, lovie. sometimes though, for sanity's sake, one needs to let things like that go. I've had to do that a time or two myself (and I beat myself up over it every time!), but truly...for my ownsake, I let it go. And hey, if I wish to write those fics later, I can, you know?

Hope it all goes well and that you feel better. Remember, you are awesome and we are all pulling for you!

*SQUISHES*

[rosiedlotrfan.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! Reading this really helps <3

[a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com]

I'm so glad it does!! Hope they are words you can carry with you, honey. :D We are all here to support, encourage and listen. One of the greatest things about this lovely comm!

I was supposed to do chores, instead I took a nap. :D But now I'm awake, so maybe I can take another stab at those chores...

[a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com]

Chores can always be done. Naps are a treasure and should be taken often says the lady who can't get naps because Growing Boys *chuckles*

YUS. Be sure to work 'writing' or 'reading-research' into the Chore-Thing.

*Eyes own chores*

Yeah...

[a-q.livejournal.com]

I feel like Sunday is more forgiving on the napping front than any other day :D

[a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com]

LOL! It certainly is! Gotta get geared up for the rest of the week, you know. Some rest definitely helps one do that. :D
