Dragging

I had a rather rough night last night and even now as I enjoy public transportation, I find my eyes attempting to droop even as I struggle to catch my breath. (going uphill wile rolling a suitcase filled with textbooks at a fast pace in the rain did not like me much)
Even now its like my foggy brain is clammering for its morning dose of Earl Grey Tea.
I am not sure if it was the rainy day or the rough night but its definitely feeling like a dreary morning to me today.

Excerpt: Night's Promise (Club Strigoi Book 3)

Again he traveled to the side of her neck, nipping her flesh. As his teeth slid over the sensitive spot just above her shoulder, she wondered if he would drink from her.
Did she care?
Hell no. Not as long as he kept rubbing her the way he was.
Duncan thrust into her jean-covered sex. Her pants and his boxers preventing anything from going too far, but the sensation of him rubbing his hard cock so intimately against her had her quickly moaning.
"Angel," he murmured next to her shoulder before once again taking her nipple into his mouth, tugging it with his teeth as he rolled the other between his thumb and forefinger. His knee pressed between her legs again when he lifted slightly, straddling her leg. Her hips arched forcefully and Melissa forgot how to breathe as she felt her entire body tensing.

Technology

For some reason, technology has elluded me this morning. I almost feel like crying out "A Scanner! A Scanner! My Kingdom for a Scanner!" But, I like having my kingdom, so I will just keep looking or if push comes to shove, I will go to my Sister's later today. 

I'm looking around the internet (I know I'm supposed to be actually posting an excerpt today, but I think I'm going to have to push that to later today to possibly tomorrow.

Today I have my Earl Grey Tea on the desk beside me, and as soon as I finish my phone conversation, I'm totally popping on my headphones and listening to more gutteral primal screaming in my ear.

Class is about to start so, I should probably go.

Metal Morning

This morning I woke up with the need to listen to Disturbed. Pandora is only mildly cooperating with me. But it did give me a chance to listen to two of my favorite songs.
I do have to wonder why if I ask to listen to Disturbed, it keeps giving me songs by other bands. Of course I could always just pull up Disturbed on my iPod, but I'm trying to let that get a little of a charge before class starts.
I have my new appointment book open in front of me and am filling out all the times I need for school and events that I already know are on my calendar, so that I can go through and fill in blocks of writing time (I think I will also try to keep track of how much I write on that same schedule.
I am still very much in the mood to listen to some adrenalin pumping metal, but I have to try to get ready to settle into sitting down for school. But I am very pumped and ready to start my day!
(Now, the question is, is that because of the Metal or the Earl Grey Tea?)

Today

When I woke up this morning, I felt more like I'd been the rope in a tug of war fight than a dreamer last night.
Despite that, I have been going through files and printouts and still find myself working hard to stay organized and keep on top of things. I never really thought I was a truly organized person, but I have to say, I really am.
That being said, unfortunately there are still tons of things for me to do, but hopefully after this next test at school, things will slow down just a bit and I can build up the momentum to get more done...
Including some of what I'm learning in school and adding it into books...

Catching up

I didn't post yesterday (bad girl) because things got really complicated, really quick. My daughter needed most of my attention, and I gave it to her.
Today is the only day I have to do several things that I need to do (including some housework). At the moment I have my doggy laying on me, but that will have to change in a few minutes.
There is so much work to do, and I plan to use today as my "getting organized" day, gathering up this weeks excerpts, creating my daily word count sheets, and potentially starting a much harder core schedule, and updating the family calendar.
Whew.
Well, there's no time like the present to get started...and the sooner I start the more chance I will have to actually get to writing today as well.

Getting Organized

I find myself listening to the very excites whispers of one of my characters. I can't wait to work on her story today.
I have also been thinking about resuming a word count goal, not as high as the one I had when I was not a student, but resuming it none the less.
For the most part I have begun to follow a schedule (though of course there are days that I feel as though I deviated from that schedule too much).
The first thing I need to do, is list out my goals. Then I can better decide on what would be a realistic goal for myself every day. The thought of being able to fit so much into one day seemed impossible not that long ago. But as I followed the advice of a motivational speaker (actually followed it not just half-hearted "trying"), and saying to myself I can do this, well look how far I have already come.
Now if I don't post on my blog until later, my day feels 'off' until I do!
