I've been writing most of the afternoon. Though, in my ADD way, writing involves just as much wandering around, making phone calls, IMing with friends in Boston as it does actual novel-izing.
I even indulged and wrote a racy, scandalous blog entry that I put on ice. Save it for later, maybe.
Now I'm going to watch "Go," and also in my ADD way, it wil probably involve a lot of pausing and eating of hot and sour soup.
Posted by This Fish at June 13, 2004 07:56 PMHow funny. Why is it that we are so easily distracted?
I loved "Go." I just might watch "Donnie Darko" again.

He just got back from Home Depot with a pile of lumber and some nails. Eh, piss off to him -- you're doing it, and it's working! (Though you might want to log off of AIM; deadline's looming.)
p.s. DO publish the scandalous post!!!

BTW, this fish was missed on a certain East Village rooftop Saturday night.

Posted by: Rob at June 14, 2004 05:42 PMThere was a cool piece on Dateline on Friday about a woman that had "hypergrafia" which means she was compelled to write all the time (even in the shower, on the walls, with washable markers). It sounded kind of cool, in an Oliver Sacks kind of way (even though it was Dateline). I wondered if I had a touch, having written all over both sides of the airsick bag as well as a couple of pages in my notebook.
