Finally - a word count!
Friday, April 4, 2008

I've got around 7,000 words, which is really just the introduction and bits and pieces here and there, with one section of a random chapter almost done. Overall, not bad, considering I really only got my ass in gear... Well, this morning.
So why have I written almost 4,000 words today? Why is my ass in gear? I dunno, maybe because in exactly three weeks' time, I've realised, I shall be getting extremely pissed as this thing is going to be handed in and finally bloody DONE. I'm going to start planning cocktails now, seriously.
Another factor was spending three hours lying in bed last night unable to sleep because in my head I was screaming 'fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck'. So I'm actually going on probably about four or five hours' sleep right now, and am feeling incredibly lively and awake. Maybe because I finally got my ass in gear? Ah! Or it could be because of the flu pills I'm taking which are full of caffeine...
Or it could also be because it looks like spring here! After having woken up to fog, I was delighted to find out this afternoon that I could walk around outside without a jumper, or a scarf! And all of the trees have flowered, finally, two months after the daffodils! Spring! And light until late (summertime, I adore thee)!
Hyper, me?
No way.

Version

Because a picture is worth a thousand words, and I cannot describe my life better than a picture can.
And because my heaven is here, I'll wrap the world around it and live in a cocoon. Quoting from a favourite song, 'Letting the cables sleep' by Bush, in its incarnation as a remix. And I do wish the friend who introduced me to the song was here to see the way things turned out.
The photos used on this site were all taken by me and can be found on my Flickr account.
