starzkiI have my next draft of the article due tomorrow and guess what I'm doing?
NOT WORKING ON IT!
Oh well. I'm too stressed. The puppy is still acting off, but I suppose that is to be expected with the meds he's on. At least he's not so wild eyed or jittery any more. But I wish he would eat. One of the side effects of the medication is decreased appetite. He was getting fat, but now he's all skinny again. It worries me. I should call the vet even though he thinks I'm a hysterical, stupid, crazy woman. I am not stupid.
I've finished a draft of the next chapter of fanfiction I'm working on. I think I'll post it today or tomorrow, after I'm done editing it. All the insomnia last week did give me the advantage of thinking through the chapter over and over and over and over (into infinity) to the point that I think I've thought through most of the plot points pretty well. I have to fix one transition and then check for basic grammar mistakes. It's also (hopefully) my last exposition chapter. Starting next chapter, I'll actually start with the real plot of the story. Also, I've already written part of the next chapter already. It was the first thing I wrote, even before I started chapter one. So I'm ahead.
Ugh. I shouldn't procrastinate actual work any more. I actually like the article I'm working on and it should be done after only a couple more drafts. But I'm sure I'll hate it by the time it comes back from reviewers. Oh! I forgot to look up JCP specs! That's what I can do now! It's like work, only not! Whoot!!
