Average Jane Accomplishes Nothing

Well, so much for my weekend o’ writing.  Let’s hope the songwriting mood strikes me tonight.

On Saturday, my husband had a session booked in our home studio (where my office is, too), so I went to my sister’s house to borrow a Halloween costume and hang out all afternoon.  By the time I got home I was feeling rather lethargic, but we had two Halloween parties to attend, so I got myself dressed and out the door by about 8:00 p.m.

We stayed a polite amount of time at the first party and by the time we left, I was yawning every 30 seconds.  I hadn’t had anything to drink, but I felt dragged out and completely unmotivated to drive across town to another party.  Thus, I skipped my favorite annual Halloween party for the first time in probably five years and…went to bed.

I slept twelve full hours, had a late breakfast on Sunday, and then went back to bed in the middle of the afternoon.  All throughout the day, I’d wake up for a while, eat something, watch some TV and then it was back to sleep.

I don’t know if it was a delayed crash from all of the party preparations from the previous weeks or if I’m coming down with something.  Either way, I seem to feel okay today.  Let’s hope I can make it through work, get the trick-or-treaters out of the way and settle in for some solid writing time tonight.  Wish me luck!

    You have had such a crazy past 2 weeks or so, you probably needed the rest! Hang in there and take care of yourself…..

    You’d better not get sick, or you’re never going to be able to write 50,000 words! Hang in there.

    kevboy – The good news is that I thought of what I’m going to write about for NaNoWriMo. I’m not quite sure where the story is going, but I know how it’ll start…
