Curious Incidents of a Flailing Mermaid

I Can´t Get No Sleep

Soundtrack to My Life – Track nineteen

Given how much time off I’ve had recently (probably over two weeks), you’d think I’d have written loads and be well up to date with this here challenge. But, no, don’t be ridiculous. I’ve written absolutely sod all! I tell a lie: I’ve filled half a journal with a ton of crap in the hope that something inspired might flow out of my pen. Nada!
I am thinking of doing a Creative Writing course I found. I’ve wanted to do a course for a while now. I figure it will give me a focus and a writing course might crack the writer’s block I currently have. I just need to decide. I got paid today so that might help my decision.

Anyway, now I have to write ten blog posts (this one included) by Saturday in order to complete this challenge. Not to mention the five book reviews I need to write – also by Saturday. I refuse to give up.

Brilliant – just opened my post to find a ton of paperwork that I have to do. I guess I have a paperwork day coming up. Gahhh.

I won’t lie; I am absolutely shattered! For some bizarre (probably not that bizarre) reason, my body and mind are not to keen on the whole sleeping thing. Don’t get me wrong, I am getting some sleep: But it isn’t a lot and it isn’t good sleep. I came down stairs at 3:30 this morning, wrote crap in my journal, read for a bit and then dozed on the sofa while trying to fight off a rogue mosquito. Fun times.

This is not the first time in my life that I’ve had sleep issues, and I very much doubt it’ll be the last. Therefore, track nineteen has been chosen to reflect this…
