Sunrise and Writing
Ahhh, sunrise. It's my favorite time of day. I've missed it so often lately, thanks to these weird hours I'm keeping, that I'd almost forgotten what it felt like to see the sky grow light and blaze with color over the computer screen. But, May is coming, and with it the end of my job. (Also the end of this semester's classes, but I try not to think about that.)
The only writing I've done recently has been Club 100, although I did get back a rejection of The Red Geranium just yesterday, so I'm thinking about doing a little rewriting on that. Even rewriting would almost have to be better than nothing...
I'm planning on bringing my notepaper with me today, of course, but I doubt I'll do much in the way of storycrafting this afternoon; my afternoon hours, what there are of them, are already spoken for, for studying. I have so much to do before Tuesday, it isn't even funny. And no chance, I suppose, of getting anything done on Tuesday, not with work. Last semester, when it was just Maya, she was napping twice a day, sometimes for two or three hours at a time, and that gave me plenty of time for studying. But not this semester.
Anyway, that's a topic I'm avoiding at the moment, mainly because I don't want to think about it. :-D
Writing, on the other hand--that's something I can't think enough about! I'm trying to brainstorm ideas for Death is a Cat's Eye. On the one hand, I have a vague idea to go with the title--but on the other hand, I'm not even sure that it goes with the sort of mood I'm looking to create in said story. But we shall see. At the moment, it's time for me to get Mamma up and set about gathering my schoolbooks for this afternoon.
Ciao!

The sunrise is wonderful! :) I see it on the way to writing class ... but I can't appreciate it fully, as it is behind me, and I am driving.
This morning, however, I managed to sleep in until the time when I was supposed to be leaving the house - so I decided to skip a class. :) And I watched the sunrise.
I have the same problem, the sunset is behind me on my way to work. I love the sunrise.
