Internet flash games are evil!!!11

Somehow tonight, I managed to lose about 3 or 4 hours of good writing time to a few dumb, but incredibly addictive flash games. 10:30pm came around, and I hadn’t written a word yet today. It was one of those moments of personal disappointment in myself that I could have so little self-discipline. But then, everyone needs a bit of a break now and then, don’t they?!

But anyway, fueled by self-disgust, tiredness, and a bit of Dido music, I embarked on an incredibly futile dash to 20,000 words. With so little time remaining in the evening, I certainly put that internal censor to bed early, and somehow, managed to get through 1,600 words in an hour and a half. That feels like a personal record. May not be the greatest moments in literary history that were written tonight, but it was something.
