Traffic jams, showers - what's your best place for inspiration?

Yesterday I meant to blog on traffic jams. I wasn't in a major one, just the usual on Friday morning. I'd left the house a little later than normal, because after actually getting a good night's sleep I was a little slow getting out of bed. Thanks to my semi-flexible working hours, that wasn't a problem with work.

Anyone, sitting in my car waiting for cars to move a snail's pace, I managed to work out a fair bit of Termion. Which, since its my current wip, is wonderful. And then, last night int he shower I had more inspiration. I had a scene (well several) I wanted to put in Termion. I was going to change the early chapters to include it, but then worked out how to include it a bit later on :) I've still got a few main issues I'm unsure about, but I trust my muse to figure it out in the end. Probably not how I initially planned it, but hey, things happen.

Yesterday I was recovering from the stress of the week. It involved at least 6 hours of gaming :) Bliss. Had my arabic lesson, came back, gamed some more. Atelier Iris 3 is as addictive as the others. I managed to watch 2 episodes of Star Trek Voyager - although can't honestly tell you what happened since I was busy writing 2k for chapter 5 of Termion, book 1 :D So I achieved a lot more than I intended to.

Today's agenda: well, I do have a mound of Japanese to tackle. But first, I must er go on Atelier Iris three. :D I am to start work by lunchtime. :) (its the weekend! I've had a hectic week and need the R&R because I'm sure this week will be just as manic. Plus it is my last 3 day weekend until the winter vacation (from 24th Dec to 5th Jan, I think :D) Love working at an institution which gives employees good winter and spring vacations.

Nayu's Realm is now searchable!

So the voting can stop on that one :)

Today - lets just say, being tired, and having minor things happen at work, isn't a good combination. A colleague diverted my tears, I actually had lunch away from my desk (don't usually do cos then I'd have to make up the time) which helped. Just dealt with a small query which I could cope with.

Japanese lesson, then I'm heading off for some serious gaming. At the moment, I may take the day off writing. I didn't sleep well last night (hence the tiredness) and I don't want to think what might come out of my head into chapter 5 of Termion. Jinna is NOT going to have a bout of weeping. It's not her character.

So I'm going to try and get as far as possible with Atlelier Iris 2, before I loan my ps2 to my friend and colleague (who reads this blog :D) on Monday.
