On Do Not Disturb

Only when you acknowledge something can you begin to foster change... or something like that. I am easily derailed when I am bummed. And I am not a happy camper right now. I've had two blow-ups come smack me in the face over the last two weeks, over miscommunications. One was probably my fault, the 2nd was not. This is why I am a hermit. I don't like people. They upset me. Then... the mother f'ers I rent from claim I paid my rent an hour late in New York. Of course, I live in California, so you can see why that would piss me off. I now owe the rent-nazi's $52 that I don't have. That's about 1/3 of what I have to live on after bills are paid. Again, you can see why I'm not happy. Even eating catfood, I'm gonna have trouble this month.

These are the excuses I have used for not editing my novel, like I should be. So, tonight, I'm going to stop by the big corporate box store and buy what little kibble I can afford to eat, then the pet store to buy the high quality, expensive cat food for the kitty. When that is done, I'm putting the tv remote controls way up high in the closet, turning my phone off, locking my door, making some coffee, putting on my sweats and a pair of big girl panties and knuckling down on the first 200 pages of the WIP.

  1. Good luck with the edits. And hey, at least the kitty will want to give you more kisses. :]

  2. Hey, that sucks your landlords are terrible. Hope the editing goes well (mine is always like pulling teeth at first then fun by the end).

  3. Thanks for stoppin' by, guys. I hope to have more posts now that I am back in the saddle, in serious WIP mode. Yes, my landlords are the devil, as is my cat. It's like I'm surrounded by the Lords of the Underworld. and yes... she will probably give me more kisses... and I shan't share my kibble... she's got her own!
