Lots of Writing
Work
It has been so nice. With everyone except the Dean and two other coworkers on my floor, everyone is on vacation. The quiet has been wonderful as I actually get most of my work done first thing in the morning and then I have the rest of the day to write.
Writing
And writing I have been doing. I managed FOUR chapters today. Everything was just flowing and I couldn't stop writing and the lack of all the interruptions in a normal day was a huge help.
Of course, at this point and time I am just typing away and not doing any edits. I'm forcing myself not to go back and re-read (though I will be honest and admit I did it twice today *hangs head* LOL).
So far, I am content. I am just waiting for the writer's block to hit. It usually hits around chapter 15 but I am hoping that since I have a detailed outline, that won't happen but I shall seeeeeeee.
I took a short break from working on the latest chapter because I realized I hadn't posted in two days LOL
Raining
Have I mentioned how much I love rain? Maybe that is what is encouraging me write so much ahahah. The rain just sings to me (yeah I know that sounds crazy but it's true). It's supposed to rain all of tomorrow too and most of Saturday morning, so I has an excite. I WOULD wish for it to rain ALL weekened but since it's Memorial Day on Monday and lots of folks do BBQs, picnics, etc., I will not wish such. I will just enjoy what I get :P
Quick Cruise News
So as I figured, Diane and Flo have said they probably can't go on the cruise. Both Trisha and I had a feeling and both of us are pretty annoyed at Diane because we've been talking about this 'group' cruise for three years now, so really?
I finally had to tell Trisha to just forget them. They'll miss out on the blast that we will have :P
Saturday
I don't have any plans, but Saturday Erica is having a house warming BBQ. I was going to go but lately I have been pretty emotional about dad's passing (as some may have read with recent posts). So I sent her a quick text and just explained the situation. She is totally understanding and completely gets it so she told me not to even fret about it.
This is why I love my friends. I just find it very difficult to be social when I am this emotional. I barely engage, and I am just a mopey blob the whole night and no one has fun like that (especially those who are forced to interact with me). I know my limits.
I even took the 9th off of work (a Friday). It's the day dad passed and I know I'll be a blubbering mess that I just decided to take the day off. I think my mom is doing the same thing.
Brandon asked if we were doing anything to remember my dad, but I do not know if my brothers are up for that. I will probably visit him at the cemetary that day and have a chat, but otherwise, I think we will all mourn in our own way.
On that note, I am going to return to writing. I think I can pop out another two chapters tonight if I keep at it.
I hope everyone is having a great week so far <3
