a challenging life
I shouldn't read lj and dw while I'm still trying to reboot my brain in the morning. For some reason, the combination of not-really-awake and high-on-modafinil makes me think everything seems like a good idea and all challenges totally doable. Like the kakairu_fest Genjutsu Wars summer challenge, I can totally do that. And Remix Madness, I can totally do that.
Then I have breakfast and come to my senses, mostly. Because sure, it looks like fun, but that remix thing will go live on Monday, and it would probably take me that long just to wade through the pages of people volunteering their stuff to be madly remixed. And the genjutsu wars will be set up with teams, and stories posted opposite each other, and voting, and just typing that made me feel unhappy, so participating would probably send my stress levels through the roof.
Breakfast saves me from a lot of things, really. But I have in fact signed up for one thing, and it's making me feel happy, not stressed:
pentapus is running a teeny tiny reverse bang. There'll be pretty, funky artwork (that works without the comma, too), and a complete lack of deadline, and I'm very excited about it already.
(And it'll make a nice break from the long Naruto story I'm working on, which right now is making me feel like I've crocheted half a bedspread of granny squares and looked up to realize the bed is actually much bigger than that... 41,000 words and I'm not even sure what has happened yet, except it might be a long, long time before I get to the bit with the undead army. Not to mention the kissing.)
