So the challenge, as I see it, is to see if I can sit here and write an entry. Despite being very tired. Despite being fairly distracted. And, as an added challenge, can I write an entry before the battery on my laptop runs out?
I fell asleep a little while ago. Right there on her couch. Very strange. I mean, I had a whole four and a half hours of sleep last night. That should be plenty for me.
Oh, shit. I hope I'm not coming down with something. That would suck. I have had the sniffles today. Crap.
My fingers are willing to type, but my brain doesn't seem ready hold up its end of the bargain. I'm having a hard time thinking of my own name, let alone an idea for a hastily written blog entry.
I could, I suppose, try to condense the last few weeks of my life. Strip out all of the things I can't write, tone down some of the emotions, respect everyone's privacy as much as I can. I could do those things, but then what would be left?
I and to what when kitties beer cold.Something like that, anyway. Hardly seems worth the effort.
Another thing I could do is make something up. Write some fiction. I get this bug up my ass every now and then to write some fiction. There are two problems with this idea.
Problem the first, I don't know if I can write fiction.
Problem the second, I don't have any ideas for fiction, either.
So, I'm basically fucked.
I wonder, does this count as an entry yet?
I am not sure we ever chatted over at JS, but if you are part of the JS diaspora, I'm glad to have found where you landed.

I actually started this site years before I ever heard of journalspace. I tried to keep the two journals in sync, though.
