Well Anyway

I feel the need to write something that isn't about sports.
Last night I visited the web site of another fan fiction writer. He's very good. I read a story of his, I don't need to describe it or anything, but it was very cool and moving and had a sequel that is not yet finished. I'm always a little annoyed when I come to the end of a fic and it's "to be continued" but I think getting to "the end" and realizing there is nothing more to read is worse. At least I have something to look forward to.
I watched My Neighbor Totoro last night and this morning as well (turned it off last night when I got too sleepy, finished it today). I don't know if it was because of the aftereffects of reading a cool, very emotional fan fiction story, but a silly kid's animated movie made me want to cry. Even though I knew how everything would turn out.
So now I'm all inspired to work on one of my stories... and as usual I find ways to avoid doing so. Actually I've just finished a scene from a little one-shot fanfic story called "Flight Control" that I'd like to finish today. I also want to work on "Bonk On The Head" and "Muyami Academy" and "Otherworld Blues" and "Seven Fiancees" but since I want to *FINISH* something today, I'm working on this weird little short story that I began about a year ago. And since it's kind of a fluff piece without a lot of plot, I'm having a hard time figuring out where to take it and how to end it, exactly... and so I waste time doing other things like checking e-mail and writing a new live journal entry.
Tai-Pan meeting tonight. It's an excuse to get out and see my friends and not be an anti-social recluse, which I tend to be even when I'm not playing EQ.
I got up really early this morning... 9 am, after going to bed at 4 am. I don't feel tired though, right now I feel awake and in a good mood. It's a nice day out. There's still time to get things done. I like being awake early, I just don't like the waking up part.
