Don't know why, but I'm feeling horribly uninspired, not able to get out any words on the next chapter of "Back Home." :/ Not a very nice feeling.

Ok, let's try focusing on the positive:
  • Watched The Secret of N.I.M.H. today, and it was just as awesome as it was when I was little. Definitely a movie that never gets old.
  • Spent time, sort of, with my family.
  • Oh, here's teh awesome... So, I dloaded a certain final 2 episodes of a certain show, and there was no sound when I played the video. At first, I figured it might have something to do codecs, but like a dunce, I just wasted time trying to dload another version of the video. Then I did a bit of internet based research, and it turned out that the problem was, in fact, lack of a proper audio codec (AC3). So, I downloaded it, plugged it into the appropriate folder on my computer, and I nearly fainted when the sound actually worked the next time I tried to play the video.
Things went downhill after that, though. "We'll always have Pegasus," and all that. Oh well.

I think I'm driven by the feedback I get on my fic, and there hasn't been as much lately. Also, I'm in a part of my story where the situation is unfamiliar territory, so I'm having a hard time figuring out the appropriate reactions for the characters. *sigh* Well, if there's anything I've learned from NaNo, it's that sometimes it can prove fruitful to just trudge through it, and then something halfway salvageable may come out in the end.
