Waylaid ...

That has thrown me off this week, along with being away from my (home) desk for work and karate for the past three days and nights. Last night I thought I could focus and get some writing done but, inexplicably, I got in such a funk that all I could do was sit there and stare at the screen for hours. I tried everything -- music, brainstorming, editing -- but, seriously, I just think I was too mentally exhausted. Of course, my funk turned into a mini-depressive episode and a bout with insomnia that I'm still trying to shake today.

Cutting back on the caffeine today ... and having just fresh foods ... and taking a nap when I get home. When I wake up, I intend to shower, have dinner, and settle in for a few productive hours.

Of course, you know what they say about the best of intentions. *sigh*
