Thank goodness it's supposed to rain for the next couple of days. I have this weird anxiety that every pleasant day we have now will be the last one for weeks and weeks. So I push myself to go out and overdo things. Yesterday was sunny and it got up to 61 degrees out. It's raining now and I can stay in, relax and get some things caught up.
I have been eating things with sugar in them and I know that messes me up. It has somewhat of a drug effect. Tomorrow I'll be eating lots and lots of other things I guess. Eating and staying in out of the rain.
My NaNo novel has over 30,000 words now. I'm sure I'm going to finish it but I've used up almost all of my main plot already. I suppose I could indulge myself and have the characters talk a lot and show off their personalities. That's what I did today and it was rather amusing. I'm getting Willie Loomis a girlfriend. My main character somehow has her own guest bedroom in three of the mansions around Collinsport. She takes her cat with her in it's carrier. She is painting another portrait of a ghost. This time, one of Josette.
I went to my first NaNo write-in on Tuesday and was reminded of how painfully shy and socially awkward I can be. It began at 10:00 a.m. and I usually begin my real day around noon. Other people already knew each other, they have college degrees and they are writing original work. I was the oldest person there and the only one writing fanfiction. At least there was a man wearing a leather pleated skirt. All that was O.K. but the worst part for me was the little races, challenges and word wars. That sort of thing is not fun for me, doesn't help and I truly was unable to count my handwritten words so I didn't. The others chatted amongst themselves and I just kept writing. I guess I will once again stick with what is working for me, which always seems to be different from what works for others.
With 30,000 words, maybe I'll take the day off tomorrow, unless I am truly inspired.
I don't see aura's but I know how to work with colors to change them and when I actually do it for awhile, I am able to make a difference in my life. It is usually tempting to take brute action like most people do instead, but I'm wanting to coax myself into meditating with the colors for a few days. I'll see how that goes.
