Day 3 - Midday update (Or: Lameness)

Alrighty, let's just call me lame and get it over with.  I soldiered on yesterday and hit 3,555 words at the end of my lunch break.  (Yay me!), but today I just wasn't feeling it.  Here is my list of excuses:

1) I was HUNGRY!  My dang English muffin, with 3 slices of Canadian bacon and a slice of provolone cheese was not enough.  My tummy wanted more and it distracted my head and hands from writing;

2) I'm recovering from a massive sinus related headache that tore through my poor body yesterday afternoon.  It was so bad I felt like hurling all the way home (thank God Tex, my carpool buddy, decided to drive this week, otherwise she would have been driving my car home for me.) and fell asleep the minute I got home.  Anyway, my brain was still shot at lunch from the pain, and frankly I can still feel that darn headache in there pounding away quietly, waiting for a vulnerable moment to reemerge in my life.

3) I am at the period in my job where all I do is type endless numbers of emails to disgruntled students for hours on end.....the thought of pounding away on my laptop keyboard sounded like pure torture (then why am I typing this blog post...??!!)

So, that's it...plain and simple I didn't write at lunch today.  But that's ok, because if my headache doesn't wreak havoc on my evening again I will write when I get home.  Though come to think of it we may be having a "Congrats" party for Pepper....hmmm.....it'll get done, even if I have to pull an all-nighter tomorrow night!

My word is true! 

Peace, Love, and Busy Fingers!  I'm out!
