Sleep is for the weak!
Sep. 7th, 2010 05:50 amSo here I am, nearly an hour early to work, nursing my grande peppermint mocha as I look forward not one wit to the return to the grind.
The day after a three day weekend promises to be horrible, with everyone and their mother calling in for problems that need to be fixed last week. How is that different from any other day? Well, admittedly not much, but it does tend to get busier.
So I decided to run on 100% zero sleep today, so that I could work more on the next Mayo chapter. Yes, you all heard right, I am in fact slowly churning that baby out. Up to 5500 words at the moment. Whoo! Halfway there (at best)! XD
And it turns out my little brother's whining has produced some lovely results. Earlier this summer, we were both promised new iTouches (which I was rather reluctant about, since I have a perfectly servicable iPod classic. But alas, I couldn't think of anything else that I wanted, would have been reasonably priced, and would have been acceptable for the offer). Anyway, little bro of course wanted to wait until the next gen came out. I myself didn't particularly care, so waiting for the next gen was as good as buying right away.
It came out approximately 7 or 8 days ago (ask bro, he could probably give you to the minute *rolls eyes*), and already he has managed to get Dad to order them online for us. Cool beans, and we got free engraving. Of course mine says "Sama - iHeart KaiShin". XD
In other news, Apple sucks so much. What? Just because I like their iStuff, doesn't mean they aren't proprietary bastards! I've been looking into how one would create apps for the iTouch/iPhone, and have discovered that pretty much the only thing you can do is buy a Mac. Their pwecious software is only for the Mac operating systems. Bah, I say.
Back to writing. Lately, I have wanted to write, but at the same time I feel absolutely no desire to write at all. Basically, I need to shut up, suck it up, and just write. But I still don't wanna~ I also wish I had a beta who would happily rip my work apart, tell me what needs to be improved, sounds horrible, doesn't work, and all that bad stuff. But then again, we all wish for that, I suppose. *cookie noms*
Alright, alright, I shall now reward those who bothered to read my ramble (or skip it entirely just to get to this point) with a teaser. I give you the next two summaries for 30 Cases.
( In which Ai ignores Conan as he complains, and Shinichi has an identity crisis )
Well, at least I can say I was awake for the entirety of my birthday?
