Have had a pretty sharp headache for a few hours now. Probably caused by barometric pressure. But the rain isn't supposed to start for over 12 hours. Hopefully I can get some sleep, I have a showcase to perform in.

Stuck behind oversized load convoy.

Was stuck here for 15 minutes before they moved up though I could cut through a parking lot to a side road. Super long rig, 2 accordion buses long, trying to make a left turn to go under a tunnel.

Just got a brother laser with a copy auto feed. Prints double sided too.

Good thing I have my heavy comforter and lots of crochet blankets because the heats off in my building due to a leak in the system. At least it's mid 40s and not 30s +wind like Monday.

I learned a new word earlier: Dyscalculia.
It's the numbers version of dyslexia.

Second Wind? At least that's when you're very tired at the end of the day but suddenly gain some energy without a nap.
'Last Hurrah' maybe?

Finish the first draft of Wonderland. Currently have 36 pages. Hoping for 90, but my 1st drafts run short so 70 might be a better goal.

Ballroom dancing, crochet, sewing, cross stitch, collecting craft supplies, singing (still trying to get my full soprano back)

Recently? Not really. Loved The Muppet Christmas Carol and The Care Bear Nutcracker Suite when I was a kid.

Working on a new script with the working title Wonderland. Also have two crochet-a-longs (same pattern 2 different yarns/colorways).
And planning my to do list for my winter vacation.

Currently on Cobra from previous job, but I just compared a certain plan on the ACA between last year and this year. Premium goes from 300 to 700 for a silver level plan. Still less than what I'm paying now, but 🙄

Aw. Cute black-capped chickadee.

I essentially have Thanksgiving week off. (only working Monday). I know I have to make my spritz cookies, and probably need to do some cleaning/organizing of my apartment.
But I have a month off mid-December to mid-January where I plan to do a lot of projects I've put off.

Managed 4 pages. Yay! #scriptsky

Wrote a little more, ticked onto a new page. #scriptsky

You should find and try the thanksgiving flavored Oreos.

Trying to write for a few hours now. Got a few things written but mostly being distracted. Not even enough to tick up in page count. Will try crocheting for a bit while the story tumbles in my mind for a bit. #scriptsky

I think I had that phone in middle school. With the giant heavy 'long life' battery. Used for emergencies only because cell phone plans were by the minute.

Congrats. Your post has reminded me to open up my WIP and actually write since I didn't for the last 3 days. 😅

It is a psychological thriller so the 1st pov is supposed to be what the MC is seeing at that moment. #scriptchat

I know, but mainly focusing on the last 9 months.

I have some pieces of 1st person pov (in my head anyway) that I've written in a way that seems to confuse people because they're short and not written in the normal way. Thoughts on how to make them clearer? Although there supposed to be a bit jarring. #scriptchat

Currently doing ZD30 although I haven't written in a few days. Still time to catch up. #scriptchat

It's like a 20 minute drive. #scriptchat

My birthday's in January. Also have most of the month off. So I should be able to get some writing done. And other projects I've put off. #scriptchat

Thanksgiving with family for the first time in a while. Didn't go last year because I definitely would've screamed at them for their political choices. Might still scream. This time with 9 months of examples. 🙄 #scriptchat

I started writing again this week. 😁 #ScriptChat

I'm starting to wind down for bed and eating my "midnight" snack.

The smoke demon piece from Fantasia. And apparently I had nightmares after Alice in Wonderland.
