Once again I have forgotten to update my journal!
Well, I've decided to take a break from writing for a week or two as my brain has imploded and needs a rest. I still have lots of ideas and drafts for my fic which has at times been all-consuming. I know where everything’s going but I think I need to just... not write for a little while. It'll help me recharge.
The fact we’re very short staffed again at work is not helping (is it always a thing wherever one works to be short staffed?? Like, the turnover of staffing everywhere I have ever worked never ceases to amaze me...) Long story short, I can’t keep on top of my day-job-stuff so I keep doing the computer bit of my job at home, which I shouldn’t be doing, but I don’t want to fall behind with it. So... I am not unhappy, just a bit frazzled. I have a few extra days off this weekend (Hatfield House visit on Sunday! w00t!) so that will let me breathe. And maybe I can then stay on top of my shit. I need to learn some time management.
Also, random note, you know how Tumblr tells you when someone has used your gifs? Like someone used my really bad quality Mary of Guise gifs (from the "Elizabeth" movie) on a totally unrelated post, but it’s made my brain go “ooo, let’s draw Wals and Mary together!” and I’m like “brain yes I’d love to, but I can’t right now.... unless you haven’t noticed we’re a little busy at the moment”.
Anyway, how is everyone? ^^;
inane rambles,
