jon_chaissonGot my coffee, got the Giants/49ers game on the TV, got my computer up to do some writing...no pressing errands, no other plans for today...things are good. :)

Had an odd dream this morning. I dreamed that I was dreaming about one of those stunt-car-crash shows and watching how some kids in the audience were laughing their asses off, even though the crashed cars were sliding perilousl close to them. When I woke up in the dream I was at my parents' house and explaining the dream to my sister, when I was informed by my dad that I had to go out and shovel. I looked out the kitchen window and saw that there was a good couple of inches of snow outside.
When I woke up for real, I realized the window was still open and it was a bit chilly outside, and that may have influenced the dream about it being cold and snowy.
My brain is weird sometimes.

The last two fingers on my right hand are sore, but I'm not entirely sure why. I may have banged them on something and forgotten what...it feels like the aftermath of having whacked them against a door jamb or something. Weird. Maybe I'm getting arthritis. :p
---
It came a bit late, but I realized where I was going wrong with Chapter 6 of CFMWH. I was taking the easy, boring route with a storyline, so I threw a few wrenches in there. Also, just moments before I powered down for the night, I quickly typed out some prompts of the chapter's storyline that I can work off of, and they work SO much better. I think that was also the problem I was having--I was trying to plot out the entire chapter without making those quick notes first, and it was taking three times as long. I think if I resort to these prompts, it could work better and quicker.
---
Note to self: time to charge up the Dana again. I may need to use it again pretty soon.
---
Is it bad that I want to stay in my jammies (and socks that Emm made me) for most of the morning and just relax? Yes, I thought so too. ;)

Best Political Quote EVAR:
Powell also spent several moments discussing the false rumors that Obama is a Muslim, saying he was upset he had even heard the rumors from senior Republicans.
"What if he is? Is there something wrong with being a Muslim in this country?" he asked. "The answer is no."
(yoinked from a WaPo article, quoting this morning's Obama endorsement on Meet the Press.)

So...how's the weekend been for you?

Date: 2008-10-19 05:40 pm (UTC)Isn't it freaky to dream that you're dreaming? I dreamed that I woke up and was writing and it was something good and then I really woke up and couldn't remember what it had been that I was writing.
Good luck on writing today. Do make a lot of notes and things when you're working to keep yourself moving forward? While I was gone, I set myself up LJ's for various projects/series and it was amazing how much it helped to put notes and thoughts to myself in there.
