It’s Friday

Posted by Michelle on 30 Jun 2006 | Tagged as: Dusty Tome

This week has been a total and utter beating. So to say that I’m happy it’s Friday would be a gross understatement.
I’m ecstatic it’s Friday! :woohoo:
After complaining to myself and others about my writing frustrations, I got hit with a reality check I needed. The advice: Finish it! I was struggling with the revision of [...]

Sin City

Last night after I dropped off Sweetie Boy, I decided to watch Sin City. I stopped watching it about an hour in.
Not that it was a bad movie - it was way cool they way they filmed it in B&W with splashes of color. But to say it was violent would be a mild statement [...]

I didn’t blog at all [...]

Another Restless Night

What is my problem? Okay maybe - just maybe - it has something to do with the fact that I stayed up and watched a somewhat scary movie all by myself (What Lies Beneath). I didn’t exactly give me nightmares, but I didn’t sleep good either.

Sleepy

I’ve been having problems getting to sleep lately. And it’s not that I’m not tired because I am. I’m exhausted by the end of the night and just want to crash. But I guess it’s because the brain won’t turn off that I lay awake for anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. Sucks big [...]

Yesterday was a complete lazy day for me. It was great, though. I needed it to recharge. I went to [...]
