I Wasn’t Planning to Be Here

Damn. Here I am again. That 750 words thing is no joke!

Yesterday, I said I’d only come here every once in a while, but here I am again. Loving the attention. I mean, my brain LOVES this.

I wrote in my journal when I woke up. Five-and-a-half pages in an A5.

I wrote 750 words on that website—and that confetti is something, let me tell you. It really jangles the old neurons.

So, anyway, before I blather on too much and lose my day to trying to work in a poop metaphor, I’ll just let this sit here. And go on to ugh … work.

Maybe I can use that 750 confetti to keep me motivated today. We’ll see.
