A Good is that I have done much laundry today, and the rain held off so I have been able to hang things on the line. This pleases me. I also weeded the driveway, which wasn’t on my mental list but is also satisfying. We just paid eight thousand dollars for that goddamn driveway, at least I can try to keep it nice for like, a year. Who knows. I bet dude won’t ever notice that there were weeds coming up next to the house, let alone that I removed them. I should pour vinegar down the crack, maybe some salt, keep them from coming right back. The grass hasn’t even totally come back yet, but those weeds, man. Nuclear apocalypse wouldn’t stop them.
Another Good is that I’ve managed to do quite a bit of writing.
A Bad, though, is that everything I’m writing is bogged down and moving in only incremental pieces. Two things that hadn’t moved since probably March are unstuck and slouching towards progress, but I’ll never have enough done to update anything, I firmly feel. I just want to bag everything and start a new WIP but I don’t have the kind of time to immerse myself in something like that, satisfying as it seems.
I sort of feel like I should try to wind up loose ends and reserve the next starting slot for something non-fanfic. It’s a really long time since I’ve seriously tried. I don’t know what I’d work on, though; I have so many WIPs in that category, too, and I want quite badly to resume one or the other, but maybe they’re all just mung and detritus by now and I should plow them all under and start over. That’d be A Lot, though.
Still. I want very badly to be able to mark some fics as Completed, so I’d like to focus on that, and I’m trying to, but it’s hard and it’s a long incremental slog and I’m leaving again this weekend, so. Bleah.
