Ugh. I'm not writing at the moment, because if I get time to eat, sleep, read and wash then I'm having a good day, to be honest. What I WILL do for now is post the beginnings of stories that I haven't finished yet, and... um... you can, like, read them, or whatever. I don't know. I'm tired.

 JESUS GUYS. Everyone's so quiet. What happened, online zombie apocalypse, what?

I got my IPTV working for about three minutes, then it stopped again. And I burnt my finger quite badly on my saucepan, and I had a heated row with one of my flatmates (no pun intended, and the two aren't connected at all), but we're over it now (actually, I'm not ( Read more... )

Listen. It's three o'clock in the morning and I have an exam (it's not important, but it's an exam) tomorrow afternoon. Why am I not in bed, asleep? There is something pathologically wrong with me. This is insane behaviour.
