What Are You Doing?

Moon and Cave Troll have changed again

 

Work envy

Two cats, ah I bet that's cute. What colours are they?

My tiny cat got into a big fight as I was heading up to bed. Wow. She's scary when she's angry.

The other cats aren't particularly unfriendly, but I suppose all cats are territorial.

You'd think the world was ending if another feline passes through the front garden

I have to go out and chase them off.

 

Taking my weekly day off from sub teaching, but I probably should have gone in. It's nearly 2:00 PM and I'm still in bed. My excuse? The house is cold, it's warm under the covers, and hey, I'm working on my novel, aren't I?

But I've added fewer than 900 words, while yesterday by this time I'd written nearly 3,000.

And neither I nor the cats have eaten all day.

 

To be fair, I don't change mine as often.

 

Feeling nervous for some reason. Can't explain why, nothing is happening around me to cause the anxiety. Just have this bad feeling in my gut.

 

Man, that sounds an awful lot like my own life... well, extrapolated by a factor of 5, usually.

As for my own doing, I'm listening to a Japanese quote unquote 'post-rock quartet' called toe.

 

Sounds interesting.

 

White with brown spots and the other is a yellowish-tan. Cats cross all the time around my house or in the yard. My cats try to talk to them mostly, and dont go too wild. More like simple interest. They fight each other sometimes,but they're mostly amiable, and like sleeping next to me.

 

Watching the impeachment hearings.

 

C-Span can't be all that exciting, can it?

 

It's being shown on the major networks, too. I have a family member who recently retired from a long foreign service career, so I get tidbits, mainly about the personalities involved, which make the proceedings more interesting.

 

Gods I hate that feeling. Every so often, not even a couple times a year, I get this feeling like the hammer is about to come down on me soon and there's nothing I can do about it. I guess that's what they call an anxiety attack, but it happens rarely enough that I'm not too concerned about my overall mental health (cue Arthur Fleck laughing and crying at the same time), but it can still be a doozy when it hits.

 

No, thank goodness!

 

Yes, being under the warm covers in a cold house sounds like bliss to me

That definitely counts as writing.

It's 'thinking time'

 

White with brown spots! That's similar to mine. Yellowish tan

Bet they're gorgeous.

You can let them roam freely, then?

Not sure if it's the same in the US. You have a lot more wildlife

To be fair, I think mine would have a go at a bear when she's mad

 

I have to keep them inside unfortunately. Coyotes would eat them at night otherwise.

 

Oh no

 

Sitting in a Wendy's with my younger brother. Can't eat since I have blood work due tomorrow morning....

But it's a nice night out. Brought another book since we went into B&N. I'm an addict.

Have a goodnight, folks.

 

So you're watching a youtube review of a movie and then they make a joke about Yogi the bear. Then you wonder who created Yogi the bear, so you pause the video you're enjoying, wiki Yogi the Bear and find out it was William Hanna, Joseph Barbara and Ed Benedict. Then you wonder how many other characters they created. You realize they created Atom Ant and are confused if there is a connection with Adam Ant...so you wikipedia Adam Ant and after finding out there is no obvious connection in the article, you begin reading about the life and times of Adam Ant and then all the people he's ever known.

Three hours later, you have all this information and no way to use it, no one to share it with and only the grim realization that you have wasted three hours/180 minutes of your life in such a way that it had no purpose whatsoever. Bitter at this realization, you seek to impart how painful this aspect of your life is to a forum on the internet.

This is the "hyperfocus" of ADHD when comorbid with Asperger's Syndrome. You may think...Well, I do that all the time. Yeah, but I literally cannot stop myself from doing it and that nonsense waste of time is the "good news." The feeling of having no control of you actions is terrifying. These episodes aren't constant, thankfully, but they happen like seizures or natural disasters.

I have never listened to Adam Ant in my entire life, btw. Does anyone know if his music is good?

*EDIT* Typo lol

-SIN

 

IDK, that is up to the observer to say...


Atom Ant is the cartoon.

 

Yeah, still on cough medicine. Having a rough time, lol. I don't think I've ever watched Atom Ant either. Is it weird that I've read about Adam Ant so much I don't even want to listen to him... Maybe later. *sigh*

-SIN

 

Then you might want to skip the high scratchy voice of Atom Ant and his cartoon show.

 

Rubber mallets are good friends in these situations.

 

Well there are a few alternatives to get it through.
