... owww, just shoot me...
I've been dealing with really bad sinus headaches for the past month or so... and last night was like the mother of them all, just incapacitated me for several hours until I finally dozed a bit on my bed... I woke up after midnight, feeling better but like I had been run over by a car... I really couldn't get to sleep after that, and even today I'm still achey and tired, but can't fall asleep... it's been frustrating because yesterday morning I got some good work done on a short story I have been writing - the story is done, now it's just in the rewrite/edit stage... I really hoped to have it done this morning, but I just couldn't focus... hopefully tomorrow I can get it done...
... oddly, the short story is a horror one... as are the other five stories I've been making notes and rough drafts on... guess all the years of King, Koontz, movies and music are finally working on me, hehe... I'm jazzed tho, because so far the ideas and work are going good, and I'm hoping to have some good stories to do something with... I've been researching some magazines to send them to, maybe I'll get lucky...
... I haven't been reading much with all the writing going on... right now I'm working my way thru a book of Edgar Allan Poe stories, along with the bunch of poetry books that always seem to follow me around the home...
... I saw Venus the other night, shining bright in the west after sunset... so I went and consulted my almanacs, and seems Venus is going to be real nice in the evening sky this season, and next week Mercury comes up to join it... so I'm hoping to catch some views of both planets together... last night some light clouds hovered around the west, making it hard to catch Venus, but higher up I could see the slender crescent Moon...
