Oh God, it's a disaster...
I tell you. An absolute, bloody disaster.
I'm supposed to be working. I have a book to write, I have a major long chapter all planned out and ready to get on with.But...
I was supposed to go to acupuncture this morning - never made it (again) because Mark, my beloved, has (we think) accidentally ingested a tiny quantity of washing powder. O:!!!! He was really ill last night; terrible stomach pains and diarrhoea. I wanted him to go to A&E but he wouldn't. This morning, he's a lot better, but he still has a sore stomach and loose bowels and is not really over it. My nerves are in shreds, I tell you.
But by ten O clockish, he seemed more or less OK, and is laying on the bed as I write, eating crisps and watching The House Detectives, so, thinking this was a great opportunity to finish this chapter, I powered up the laptop up, fully intending to work and I find - LJ is FULL of new fic, and interesting discussions and meta, and The Eighth Doctor and Fitz..
and I HAVE to tear myself away and GET ON WITH SOME WORK; but how...?
Please. Help. Help me resist the temptations, for they are many.

Sigh. No. NOT that. I'm hoping to press on with thaqt this afternoon. This is the real one (o: the one I hopelessly hope might get published and earn me some money ::G::
And it's OK about the not-helping. Seems I need a break about every 5 minutes today. ::thinks tea + toast = Good Things::
But I wanna read your fic! And Jane's new fic! And the Secret Santa fics (I'm so behind!) and all the LJ stuff. I'll try and catch up tonight. My diary is, like, SO full right now, man!
Mark seems fine now, thanks. Enjoying the day off with his favourite occupations - stuffing his face with junk and watching TV. ::G::
