progress on two fronts.

Chemistry's really exciting, but wearing at my nerves. I haven't been able to sleep soundly. Wish I could back to this past weekend, when I was hanging out with jennlynnfs and bijoux. (We ended up staying at Jenn's and I actually slept the full 8 hours sans chem-related nightmares.)

There are jokes that if you're not having nightmares about your project, you're not working hard enough. But this is ridiculous. I'm sooo extremely nervous now, and I walk around as if I'm half asleep all day. How is this good?

But it's addictive, getting results. Must...keep...going...

To take the edge off, I try to write while waiting for things to stir, centrifuge, etc., but my mind doesn't settle well. Nevertheless, I toyed around with my (recently registered!) Writer's Cafe software. A really neat (and integral) part of Writer's Cafe is Storylines, which is a program that allows you to lay out your plotline according to plot arc, mix and match to your heart's content, etc. It's like having index cards for all your scenes, dialogues, etc. So I put in my draft of EE to see how it held up.

I got disgusted. I'm laying this out ground up again. But least I've taken inventory of what scenes I have...

EDIT: I forgot to say! I would like to thank heart_set_afire for this totally awesome icon. When I see it I think of Tannar. :p

writing, chemistry
