Rambling about nothing on a Saturday

[fairjennet]

Feeling like a zombie girl today, cause I stayed up waaaay to late last night. I just can't sleep anymore. My thoughts start whirling the moment I get into bed.

It doesn't help that I'm writing again, which always makes me feel like something is seriously wrong with my stomach.

This makes absolutely no sense. I've been writing my family history for years, and that sort of writing never made me nervous before. I've even sent parts of it to other amateur genealogists and didn't lose a wink of sleep about it. And I'm over being nervous about posting in rp games. If it sucks, oh well, at least I had fun sucking. Its not fear of critique that's turning me into a gibbering idiot.

So, WTF? Nobody is ever going to read the important stuff since I never mean to post it anywhere. Something about creating a story, even if its only going to be locked in a drawer for the rest of eternity, makes me feel like I'm stuck in the middle of one of those "I forgot to put on clothes this morning" dreams. Seriously, I don't know how you people do it.

Does anybody else feel this way when they write?

Personally, I've never experienced that before. I hope it doesn't keep affecting you too long, especially since it makes you feel unwell.

Catch up on some z's! I'll be doing that Sunday too.

That's because you're a lovely, reasonable person. Lucky you. :)
Thanks for bringing me back down to earth.

And I will! That's why Sundays were invented.

Hmmm, I don't know the feeling about the writing part, but I do know the feeling of whirling thoughts the moment you get into bed. Even when I go to bed all sleepy, it is like someone clicks a button and all I do is think and not sleep. I hope very much that your restful sleep returns soon to you! *hugs*

As for being nervous about posting in rp games -- I think perhaps we should play some with our girls again. Those are only up to silliness anyway. ;)

Thank you. I went to bed relatively early last night, and I was so exhausted that I actually got to sleep before the sun came up. It helped muchly. :)

And we should play with our girls sometime soon. Silliness is good!
