had
some reflective 'I should kick my own tail' thoughts today that I have
several more small stories and books and I just haven't been able to
drag myself to work on them but then I go and spend a few hours here and
there in Minecraft building a huge empire that doesn't exist - which
imaginary world is more productive? It is all 'imaginary time', like
dreams, but a bit more tangible.
I have another Mikki story I had half-realized - and several others, and then a few more popped into my head today and I captured an iota of it... and yet I sit here staring at what I sent myself on my lunch break and saying 'Do I really want to work on that or do I want to go build a road to nowhere in the game' again...
Both past times can be done at midnight or 3 am...
only one of them will ever amount to something in my publish queue....
I worked on a few simple illustrations and thoughts for that story. And I thought about tomorrow, which is the Solstice. I have to work tomorrow, and it will be early. What if, instead of walking all the way up to the road and watching the first light and walking all the way back down, I made coffee and an egg and watched the red day lilies light up in the garden? I think that would be good. And Saturday will perhaps be a hard day, starting late at the post office and as long as it takes to get it done - and not a route I run often. There won't be a lot of time the next few days to do much leisure / thought process. Sunday I have not volunteered, though - and I hope it won't be a call in situation, so we can all go to the store.
