Oct. 5th, 2015 01:08 pmWelp. Getting up at 6.15 because I was wide awake despite having already been woken up twice last night (albeit once only to realize oh I actually have been aslzzzzzz) was probably not my best idea ever.
Ugh the weekend. Well, the half a weekend, because I'm not sure doing a half day at work and then dragging myself to a roda for one day counts as a full weekend, but we did get in a roda. Well, I got in some time and it did happen because we at least had an indoor venue, despite the buckets pouring. It was fun! I was called up almost as soon as I'd gotten my shoes on, which was more than a little terrifying. But it was fun, I wasn't horrible, I wasn't even the most horrible person in the room, I'm pretty sure my form was on point even if I tired out quickly and couldn't ... how to describe it. I can do certain moves pretty well by now. I can do other moves less well. I suck right now at stringing them together in coordinated phrases. There's about two or three phrases I can do, and then I'll either keep defaulting to them or mentally panic and depending on the situation (not in a roda of course) wait for one of the teachers to cue me. I need to work on that. Badly. That said, the fact that I had the confidence to do a small roda was heartening.
And then I kind of fell over. I don't actually remember much of what I did when I got home other than play Diablo and glee over the fact that I hadn't totally embarrassed myself. I remember the boy ordered pizza. Not much other than that.
And then Sunday was full of catching up on all the work I didn't do Saturday, particularly the astronomy stuff due 6.30 Monday morning, so, no, not so much of a weekend. This coming weekend anyway. Should be better. I hope. I want my weekends back. Am I doing anything for the next several weekends? I don't think so.
... it really has been that long hasn't it. First weekend of September was DragonCon, second weekend of September was a road trip, third weekend of September was necessarily flat, fourth I think managed also to be flat, and then roda and work and everything. Okay, no, I'm not wrong. I will now proceed to spend all weekends from here till Nanowrimo being as fucking flat as possible. Knitting, reading. Watching online class lectures while knitting. Sleeping, lots of sleeping. Blogging, I guess, too, there's still Haven to be done. But also flatness. Lots of flatness. At least with blogging we have an extra evening to work on it.
Right. Done complaining at you all, I have writings to do and look! I'm even keeping up with OC October! Shock!
