Oh Kate, Honestly

 

I’m exhausted today. I should be in bed right now, but I promised myself I’d at least do a little writing before I went to bed. I’m trying to make a daily habit of writing really, but I am struggling today. It’s been a long day. Not a bad one, just a long one and I’m feeling drained from it. I’m definitely not getting enough sleep, and I’m probably also readjusting to getting up at stupid o’clock to go to the gym with dad. Part of it is knowing all the stuff that’s coming up and having a hard time focusing on work instead of daydreaming about the upcoming adventures. It’s tiring reigning in your brain over and over again from its treks into DragonCon and Ireland and all the friends and family I’m going to get to visit between the two trips. Plus, the room reservation stuff at work has been crazy busy, and there’s part of me that regrets taking on that project. I mean, I don’t really, but it is a lot to deal. Sometimes more so than others. 

 

I’m sure my obsessive brain isn’t helping either because there are just too many things to obsess about right now. There’s everything I’ve mentioned thus far and “The Meg” which my brain is fully attached to, and I’m thinking about my costume for DragonCon and how I’m going to play it. I’m thinking about packing. 

 

Other things that exhausted me today: a going away party for a coworker where a ton of people crammed themselves into a room, many of which I didn’t know, reading the end of an exhausting book for my book club, setting up a second party for the teens and then cooking and then cleaning, just having to be a person constantly. There was so much of being a person today, and I didn’t get to have my usual lunch break because of the party. 

 

I really want to work on my fanfic story for The Meg, but every time I open it today, I stare at it and then either get distracted or get forced away. I think the tiredness and the peopling are interfering today. I’ll have to try again tomorrow. Hopefully, tomorrow will be more normal. Of course, we have the Teen Finale in the afternoon so the afternoon won’t be typical, but at least maybe my lunch will be. 

 

Alright, I needed to go to bed hours ago. 

Side Note

 
If I get anywhere near my goals met, I'm going to see "The Meg" again on Saturday.
