julieandrewsBecause it may be helpful to pinpoint my reasons, or whether they're excuses. Here's why I didn't write today.
* I was tired at work, because I didn't sleep much the night before, because my sleep schedule always reverts to my normal night owl on the weekends.
* Since I was tired and it was easier, I played Facebook games on my breaks. I read a manga during lunch. Partly because it was crowded and noisy in the break room. It was also annoying in there today, but that's irrelevant.
* When I got home, I immediately took a 2-ish hour nap, because I needed it, and because it's my more or less usual routine.
* Then I ate dinner and started watching something while I did so.
* Then I called my parents, because I wanted to find out how my grandmother was doing. So that was at least 1 hour and 20 minutes.
* Then I read and replied to Wiscon and Readercon-related Emails. Which was fun, but also which needed doing ASAP. And Yahoo Mail gave me such a headache that it took longer than it should've and I ended the task annoyed rather than feeling accomplished and excited about Wiscon.
That leaves me with an hour before I intended to go to bed, but my brain's ready to shut off and go back to watching what I started watching when I was eating dinner.
So. There you go. Not only did I not get any writing done, I didn't read more than 1.5 manga volumes, and haven't even half-watched an episode of Britain's Got Talent, let alone watch anything else. And I didn't play on the Wii, which I also intended to do.
Oh yea, now I need to go put the leftovers away, that've now been sitting out there for 5 hours while I was distracted. Food poisoning, here I come.
