Not Much To Say

December 18th 2009 13:03
I don't have much to say today. It's the last day of school until the new year and I'm hoping the break will allow me to get everything together. I've been stressed out and unbelievably exhausted since Nano. I'm hoping a few days of down time will change that.

I'm going to be taking the weekend off and just resting. I know posts have been scarce this December but it's been a really bad month.

On another note: the Olympic Torch passed through my city today. I didn't manage to see it because some protestors blocked it from its official route and so it was late, and it's December so here in Canada me and my friends were freezing our butts off.

I don't really care for the Olympics either way; to me they just sort of happen. I've never been much on athletics so I've never found a love of the Olympics. Last year I was intrigued by the whole little girl scandal and I did watch the closing ceremonies, but otherwise, I've never been a big fan of the Olympics. I will say this though: I don't see the point of protesting against it. My grandmother explained to me why the protests happen, but really, the Olympics has been going on for Gods only know how long, and they aren't going to just stop. So those people are freezing their butts off for nothing, and they'll just make other people more angry because they have to freeze their butts off longer waiting for the torch.

Anyway. Ranting again. I'm going to be spending the weekend completely away, without so much as contemplating writing, and when I return on Monday hopefully I'll have recovered from my writer's block.

I'd call it writer's fatigue more than writer's block, ~Dianna, and I actually do not believe writer's block exists except for the sometimes untalented or the perfectionist who thinks his/her work is always going to be perfect.

Just regard writing as an occupation, like any other, which has its ups and downs.

You are obviously stressed out and that is little wonder, you work like a Trojan, so I am really pleased you're taking some time out to just chill out and then thaw out.

Over here it's been blazingly hot some days.

As regards the Olympics, I could not care less, but I agree with you, those protesters just make a nuisance of themselves for no really good reason, to have a good reason, one needs to be sure of some success.

I think sport should be played for the sake of health, not to amuse spectators and would be if they could bes.

A comment is all too short a forum but as I usually have so little to say, I hope you get a nice surprise come Monday.
