Maybe I should just go back to bed

yuuagoThe job offer went through. Now is the process of getting all the documentation I need before actually getting onto the job site. It's more complicated and annoying than it sounds. And my first day is tomorrow, and I'm kind of panicking about it a bit, though I guess it'll be fine.
I suspect that soon I will be endlessly grumpy due to lack of sleep. I'm going to need to get up at about 4 AM just to get to work, see. Wonderful. :| And there's so much worry of "Shit, what if it turns out that I'm totally incompetent at this and they boot my ass out the door after only a few days". Ugh.
But hopefully (hopefully!) I will be able to get some writing done soon. Yeah, I know, "How can you write when you'll be working?" Well, the bus ride to and from is an hour. I'll probably be sleeping on the way there, but coming home? I expect I'll be awake enough to pound out a few paragraphs every couple days, at least. I expect that all the training I did with learning how to write in a moving vehicle will come in handy.
It's a good thing, too, because an idea popped into my head last night and I'm itching to write it. I'll let it percolate a little more, but not too much. I want to get on that idea. It'll be fun to write... I think. But it's one of those things that's kind've dumb and idficcy so I'll probably see if I can find a prompt that will suit it, and post it anonymously.
On a completely unrelated note, I hope my Finnish friends (and certain friends currently residing in Finland) will have a wonderful independence day :D [Though as I'm writing this, it's about halfway over. Oh, well!]

Oh right. It's Dec 6th today

Congratz on job, and best of luck with all the nit-picky pieces of paper work that still have to go through.
I have to admit, I'm jealous of your being able to write in a moving vehicle. You should give me some tips, because a month and a half for me is ridiculous for me, even if the vast majority of the chapter was written on the bus to and from work (because who really wants to study on a bus? ;P)
As for the story I'm now horribly curious as to how your story is going to go. Prompt....let's see...your prompt is marshmallows! Or if you want a more specific prompt, smores...and roasting them over a fire. Is it obvious I need some hardcore fluff in my reading? XD

Date: 2011-12-06 05:44 pm (UTC)The only tips I have about writing in a moving vehicle mostly have to do with just... doing it. One gets used to it eventually! And it's useful to have a sturdy backing for your notebook. But that's it. :Va I got accustomed to it because when I was in graduate school, on the bus in the morning was the only time I had for writing.
The story... well, I don't want to tell many details. But it will be Den/Nor and I found an unfilled request on the kink meme that will be just perfect.

Anyway. That sounds like a pretty damn good celebration :V [/slightly envious]
