Since I’m not quite ever in the mindset to write a proper post.
1. The novel. I can seen the finish line, and it looks like before summer. But because it’s longhand, it might not be a proper draft 1.5 until Julyish. But we’ll see what happens. I’m feeling pretty good about where I want to take things, but even writing it so far, the characters like to change the story. That’s a Good Thing.
2. Work. So, this week I start my first official week as a Salaried Employee. I’ve never been salaried before. It feels weird, considering I haven’t been working there a year yet. It wasn’t a big raise, but it was a raise, and it’s desperately needed.
3. The gym, oh how I’ve missed you. Finally, last night, I had one of the best workouts I’ve had in months, and that includes the training during the half. I’m thinking I need to buckle down, especially on the weekends, and at least get a couple of miles in. I’ve gained a lot of weight (or, at least it feels like a lot of weight) in the past 4 months. And drinking. Plenty of that.
4. The current song on repeat. That would be Friendly Fires’ “Skeleton Boy.”
5. Pigtails. Right. In my attempt to try something different with my hair other than cutting it short again, I’m wearing it in pigtails more often lately. I know, I know. It’s bad enough that I look younger than I am, but I guess trying to make it worse might work out? I don’t know. My energy’s been so sapped lately that that’s the most work I can do on myself right now. Although, when I did straighten it about a month ago, it looked fantastic, so that’s also an option. I’m hoping when I get my credit card under control I can have a proper clothes shopping day. I think I’ve figured out that I give off almost too much of a tomboy vibe, and being the Year Of The Goddess, I think it’s time to tone it down a bit.
