Me, Glorious Me
May. 3rd, 2004 11:41 amFinally off the meds. For now at least. If my blood stays good, I'm done. If it goes back to being clotty and stubborn, I'm on the meds for life.
Ick.
So now I'm being obsessive super militant about getting enough water and rest and avoiding hydrodiscombobulated oil. Luckily, the weather is steadfastly remaining chilly so eating oatmeal twice a day is only boring, rather than unappetizing.
I was mocked by a burger joint yesterday. Was driving past Culvers* and the marquee announced "Buy a hotdog and get an item free!!!"
Okay. Okay. I'm working on adding better vivid, emotional details to my writing. There's no need to get snarky.
More writing quibbles. I've been doing a bunch with my writer's group lately, and while I like the group and etc, but it runs pretty rapid, and I am a pokey writer. By choice and by nature. I like wasting an afternoon deciding between haggard and ratty. I like writing half a story then sitting on it for two months before finishing it.
So I'm getting frustrated by having to write quicker than I want. Frustration=no fun. Not that writing should always be fun, but right now it's still a hobby, so fun or maybe a better word is enjoyable has to be a big part of it.
Forgot to explain my asterick.
* Culvers is home of the ButterBurger. Yes, they put butter on hamburger. It's a Wisconsin chain.
They also make the most luscious frozen custard on the planet.
