I have a new weapon 19 hours ago

fresh in box is my new laptop computer. So now the doors can break and my illness can flare all they want I will not be kept from computer access.

No more am I bound to public computers that I have to drive to get to.

The written word doth cringe, for I am set free.

Oh now that's just not fair. 2 days ago

Seriously, I’m trying my hardest to keep things going in a life I just pulled from the crapper, and part of that is after making sure I won’t get sick for the day, driving to a place I can get computer access for certain hours in the day.

Only today the doorknob to the house breaks. causing the door to be closed and unopenable.

Handy pocket tool and an hour and a half later the door opens and closes, but is just knobless and using the deadbolt to close it.

Seriously, you just ate nearly two hours of my schedualed writing time. What’s worse is I’m going to have to go over this all over again tomorrow. Running errands to get peas, because the two stores I’ve gone to haven’t been stocking them and they are one of eight foods I can eat. Then I’m going to have to price check door knobs and locking systems and possably buy one and install it.

Then I have to ask for and wait for reimburcement from the landlord. Because dang it I intend to get my own computer if I have to do somethings I wouldn’t normally do in an effort to scrape together the money to pull it off.

I made pizza 3 days ago

many pizzas actually and I got paid to do it too. and then I ate, and now I have to get to a late night grocery store to get the few foods I can actually eat on my illness enduced diet which is going strong at year three now I think.

Then maybe I’ll look over my past writings tonight, and do some rough edits on paper so when I retype them it will be like retelling a story so that it’s better and more streamlined with each telling.

Then I’ll brainstorm where my supernatural teen novel goes from it’s start.

and then think about where to start my fantasy story. Though with that one I may do something I’ve never tried before and write nonlinerally. Jumping around to the parts that have already formed in my head. It’s not my style, because for me I’m often on the journey with the characters and discovering what happens, so first things first.

Tomorrow is important, it’s my first day off in a while, and I intend to make up for lost time by sitting at a keyboard for at least 8 hours.
