So ... that happened, I guess.

You know what I think my problem is? I think it's because I'm just trying to get done with the first draft, and I started writing this stupid thing a year ago and it bothers me that I haven't gotten it done yet, but at the same time ALL I can see is the revisions I'm going to have to make. There will definitely be revisions. I already can see the problems. I know where I'm going to be slashing things and adding things and cutting things and my brain is like, "Why are you trying to write stuff you know you're going to have to trash it later?" without taking into consideration that there is tons of stuff in the book that'll get altered all to hell that I adore and is vital and I'm at that point where I love it but I don't even like it anymore and LOOK I'M JUST A BIG STRESS BALL, OKAY?!

*headdesk*

Also, I hate that I'm beginning to suspect that the only reason I got anything written today is because I've been listening to opera for four straight hours. On the plus side, if I played by the rules right now I'd be in gym at work. So there's that.

Fuck it. I'm going to go play Faux!Wii tennis for a while.

Don't worry about revisions at this point. Just get the story out. You can do this. I know you can.:)

Even if it is, hey, you're writing. Who cares what catalyzed it?
