Isn't it the middle of the week yet?

This week seems to be going by really slow. Maybe it's simply the fact that I know the last Bones of the season is on Thursday. I'm anticipating watching it, but after its over no more until the fall. And with the terrible way House ended this season, I figure Bones may arrive at the same fate. I learned early in my writing career that "it was all just a dream" is very bad way to end something. And hallucinations must be handled with care to work... and House's didn't.

The work front isn't much better. I'm in a serious rut and can't get out. That makes the weeks go by very slowly. I need to get back to fiction, otherwise I'll never be able to say that I love the work I do. Sure, I may love the convenience of making my own schedule and not having to actually be around other people, but the rest of those good old office politics still apply. And that's the only thing I'm trying to get away from... that and working eight hours in a row. I'm serious when I ask: How does anyone do that without going insane? I've maybe done it three times in my life and afterward I never wanted to go back to work again. I guess you really have to love your job and just loose track of time, right?

Oh, and I thought I might end this blog post with a little shameless promotion. I have a number of new ads in the right sidebar for you all to peruse, if you think something is interesting. I'm just promoting a promotion, so does that really qualify as shameless promotion? Hmmm. The things I think about!

Progression

I worked hard this morning and am very proud of myself. I easily knocked out 6 articles in just a few hours. Unfortunately, it's Monday and I can't do much more than that. House, Heroes, and a Jimmy Stewart movie called On our Merry Way are all on tonight. Plus, if I really want to get no sleep, I can catch Harold and Maude at 11:45 on TCM tonight. I'm still debating. Either way, I have to work twice as hard tomorrow. My goal is to clear out my article queue. That would mean writing more than 20 articles. I gotta get it done anyway, so why not all in one day? I think I'll get the coffee ready for the morning.

I found the best motivation for my freelance career: PARENTS! Because the don't really want me here just as much as I don't want to be here, I tend to work twice as hard writing articles. I easily did 13 today in just a couple of hours. That means if I keep up that pace, I'll have enough money to move out in no time--hopefully. And yes, I'm still planning on moving to New York. If anyone knows any insider info about moving to the city, please share.

I watched Bones and House tonight!! They were both great, but a little disappointing. I didn't want Zack to be Gormagon's apprentice. But I think I would have been much worse off if it had been Hodgins. I really wanted it to be Sweets, but that was totally ruled out when they added him to the credits a couple of episodes ago.

And on House, I did hate Amber, but it was so sad to see Wilson cry. And now he's REALLY going to hate House.

Now all I need to know is if Zack is still going to be a character on the show or not... it will affect my script, though not so much that I'll get mad. Hmm... I don't really want to wait until September to try and finish it. Whatever. I'll figure something out.
