Can’t Shake the Last Book Yet #stuck #writerproblems

Okay, so, I’ll admit it. I’m having a hard time transitioning out of Training Season writing mode. The book is nearly done–mostly, almost entirely–and is in someone else’s hands right now. I want to work on ’90s Coming of Age novel…but I can’t seem to move on from TS yet. And while I do want to work on ’90′s COA, I also want to do something absurd and completely useless like, I don’t know, re-watch (or gorge on unwatched) Christian and Olli vids on YouTube.

I don’t remember where I left off watching you two, but I feel like maybe I need to stay up until 5:00 a.m. binge-watching whatever I haven’t seen before. Or maybe I should start at the beginning and watch you fall in love again?

Am I allowed to do that? I mean, really? Can I? I know I can and I’m allowed, but not writing what I “should” be writing definitely makes me feel like I’m wasting precious time. But, then again, maybe this is the refueling rest-stop on the way to actually doing something? I doubt I’d spend more than one or two nights drugging my brain with Christian and Olli.

So, I guess I will. Maybe. I dunno. Sure.

Oh, and I watched like six episodes of DeGrassi with my kid today, which makes me the parent of the year or something (DOUBTFUL, maybe it’s opposite) and I kind of want to spend tomorrow watching a shit-ton more. Someone get me that parent of the year badge. I’ll wait here. FOREVER.
