Idle Thoughts

Some days are just better than others, and that’s pretty damned close to gospel truth.

Yesterday was not a good one. I got up feeling horrid – some upset to my stomach that eating breakfast didn’t really help and a bit of a nagging headache – yet in my usual stubborn way attempted to get in a full work day anyway. Needless to say, I only made it until about 11:30. Thankfully my supervisor is awesome and let me take the rest of it as sick time and go home to rest up.

I still have the whole headache deal, but my stomach feels much more settled than it was thirty-odd hours ago.

I’m fairly sure – at long last! – how I’m going to work the novel. Still no title as yet, but I try not to worry on that with even short pieces and fan fiction until I have a general idea of the story. All I’ve got clearly in mind is that there are three main protagonists, and although they mesh together well one of the three is almost literally a ‘fish out of water.’

It’s odd, though, how we all as individuals choose to relax. I spent a good four hours after resting up yesterday playing The Sims 2; I’m always more relaxed after playing for a while, and while I don’t understand it I am pleased that I can usually get in a good night’s sleep afterward. I slept fairly well except for my cell phone screaming that the battery was dying at 3 this morning. Ugh, and I was sleeping so nicely, too….
