Trouble Brewing
All is not well in NaNoWriMo land. I am tired. I am more tired than I have ever been. I’ve been exhausted, I’ve been burned out, but I’ve never been tired like this. Last night I could have gone to sleep at 9PM (A full 2-3 hours early!) and tonight is no different. My brain is not functioning normally. I am forgetting things, my speech is abnormal (in conversation my words are getting jumbled). Things are not good. I cannot even write.
I wish I could quit. I wish I could say, “I’ll do it next week, but not this week,” but those kind of thoughts seem to always end up leading to things never getting done. So I will press on. Besides, I have come too far to quit now. I am half way to my goal. Now if I could just keep my eyes open … . Oh yes, I had some coffee before I left work (I hate the stuff) but it is having no effect. Makes me wonder if I’m getting sick or something.
I’m 866 words behind as of now, but it’s bound to grow by tomorrow. It’s too late to hit my goal for tonight, and I fear that will be my death knell.
