DO NOT WANT.
In other unpleasant news, my car is in the shop for the weekend for some battery issues. I'm glad it was caught early and maintenance and parts NOW are cheaper than they would be in another year or so when they'd have to apparently completely replace a whole bunch of stuff, but still. SIGH.
In cheerier news, my story for this week's writing class is going easier and hopefully I can post it f-locked later this weekend. I at least like the concept behind it: we had to start with a "dreamlike" writing exercise and, me being me, I added stuff. *looks shifty*
I will say, as odd as it is, I feel more confident writing fic than real stuff. I mean, with my characters, I *know* how they are supposed to sound instead of trying to imitate the voices and rhythms of actors and other writers, but still. There's the whole process of learning how imaginary people tick that I haven't done in a while, and it's unsettling. Hopefully I'll kick it into gear, though.
And just because:
