kittydesadeLast night I got a full 8 hours' sleep, all in one chunk, for the first time in a while.
Go me.
Today I actually feel like a human being. It's kind of amazing. I've spent the last few weeks in a bizarre fog of food/protein deprivation (at first), sleep deprivation (overall) and general madness. Haven't gotten more than two or three hours of sleep at a time until last night. Except one night. But... yeah.
So. Today I celebrated by painting minis! And I got two... eh. Two thirds painted, finished the final touches on Jonas Kane which means I think tomorrow I'll get the rats out and see which looks better, the semi-gloss or the all-matte. The rats are my test subjects for all my mini painting experiments. But I need more of them. Hmm. Maybe it's time to send a Reaper Minis catalogue to my mom. "Mom! I need rats!" They're perfect for experimentation. They're small, have little detail, lots of texture for experimenting with various painting techniques, and there are four minis to a pack. And they're cheap! Like the budgie.
Ugh. I got my worldbuilding stuff for TM done, but I don't think I'm going to get all three novels done in time. The category romance novel definitely died mid-stream. Again. On the other hand, I think I now have enough material to write a category gay romance, so that might end up getting worked on. *grins* Yes, you know who you are who know who these lovely two men are. I swear, I'm going to figure out how to put them into a romance novel. There's gotta be a market for supernatural gay romance. In fact, I'm sure there is, I just gotta figure out what.
And then I need to get off my ass and edit Martine, and maybe one other novel, and submit that one. And then I need to get off my ass and go to the library and submit some more short stories. A lot more.
And then I need to get off my ass and look for part-time jobs.
But that's tomorrow. Today I'm just going to celebrate eating right and getting a full night's sleep and not feeling like crap/like someone's hijacked my brain.
You know who you are.
Go me.
