Free Vella Read

I managed to get a 1500-word Vella story done last night that I had been thinking about for a long time. I almost used this as a story told in the third person instead of the first person narrative in my "A Knock On The Door," and I might yet try it. I decided to use it in my "How I Keep Smiling In...

How was it Snoopy of *Peanuts* fame said it, " It was a dark and stormy night..." It started raining about 9 PM last night; other than a brief moment or two, it has been raining steadily since. We've had brief flickers of power loss but not a complete shutdown. Yet! Actually, this is a good start to... Sign in to see full entry.

I tried to make some extra money working as a waiter at a local restaurant. Things didn't go well. I had a customer ask me if he could buy a bagel with cream cheese, and I told him that we only took cash. Five minutes later, I was fired. Good night! Sign in to see full entry.

Local Boy Does Good

I think I have diagnosed what I had yesterday as "burnout," so I took some advice I saw here yesterday and just did as close to nothing as I could all day, and I feel better.

Eh... I still feel listless, but I can't sit here all day because I have a long list of things I need to do today. I just got the email telling me the episodes I uploaded last night to my " Dealing With Grief " and " How I keep Smiling... " Vella projects are about to go live. Yea! lol V Sign in to see full entry.

Have you ever had one of those nights where you think you slept well but are still tired? That's me today. I'm sitting at my desk, trying to motivate myself, but my engine isn't firing yet. I have a lot to do, but so far, the best I can manage is to sit here and think. I think I'm going to take a... Sign in to see full entry.

I'll tell you a secret. I've developed a serious phobia of German sausages. I fear the wurst. We had a good day. A lot of smiling and hugging and a few kisses here and there. Life is good. Sign in to see full entry.
