Jul. 11th, 2019 11:39 pmI slept better last night than I have for a while. I got up around 9:00. I would have stayed in bed longer and tried to sleep more because I'm still exhausted, but today is Thursday, so I needed to get ready for the cleaning lady.
It's almost 3:00 now, and I still feel groggy. I should have done the dishes yesterday morning; when I filled the dishwasher today, I had a lot of things leftover-- five plastic cups, the bowls, a couple of mugs. The cleaning lady may have hand-washed what was left. If I'd gotten up earlier, I possibly could have run the dishwasher, had Cordelia empty it, and then put those excess dirty dishes in. I try to do that because I'd rather have the cleaning lady spend time on things that I can't do at all and because I can't tell, after she goes, if she just rinsed and stacked the dirty stuff out of the way or actually washed it. Sometimes, she does one thing and sometimes another.
I think the only current writing assignment I have is my Fandom Trumps Hate story. I've got a seed of an idea for it. I just don't have a starting point yet. I'm contemplating Iddy Iddy Bang Bang which just opened for signups, but I'm too tired to be that engaged. It's hard to decide whether or not a story is iddy if my current reaction to everything is 'meh, too much work.' I kind of know vaguely that I've got half a dozen WIP that might fit, but I don't care right now.
I was briefly excited about using the challenge to finish "Rooms of Falling Rain," but works that have parts posted aren't allowed, and I've posted three chapters of that. Maybe, after I finish chapter 4, I can turn it into a series? The next important bits, after chapter 4, might work fine that way. I'm not sure. The narrative might lose something if I don't keep it focused. I think I'd like a set of side stories, though, because there are things I know about the bigger picture of the AU that might be interesting to explore.
