Cranking
Author: Jax Cassidy // Category:
Nothing beats deadlines. Well, nothing beats cranking out as fast as you can to meet a deadline. LOL I'm extremely tired and fighting off a cold and trying to get through 2006. Boy, do I have a lot planned for '07!
I'm listening to all this heavy rock and grunge music blasting in my ears and it's like a caffeine rush. I think that I'm bordering on the brink of mental delusional oasis...WTF? I can't think straight. Hummmm...at least I get off at 1:00 PM from my corporate job tomorrow. YAY! This leaves me with under 7 hours to finish my WIP to turn into my co-writer to edit before we send it off to the publisher. Whew...then I'm going to have to jump in and finish the next deadline. Don't feel sorry for me. I'm a procrastinator when it comes to writing, but I think some of my best work flows from my fingers during the crunch. Sick, isn't it?
Anywoo, I need some sleep. Maybe oxygen to the brain will allow me to function better tomorrow and through the weekend. I've got a 4-day but it's going to be used for writing. I'm already making a mental grocery list for items to hole up with. Coffee being at the top of the list. I figured I could live on lattes throughout the weekend to help my performance.
Okay, okay, I'll spare a little time to parrrrrty for New Years with Lisa. It's going to be a total blast to ring in the New Year with my partner in crime! This might set precedence for 2007... WATCH OUT WORLD, the bad girls are in town!

Y'all have fun and raise a toast to the Divas!
I realized today that I haven't really written to a deadline since I worked at the newspaper. I think I was better at it then. I've gotten lazy.
Happy New Year!
Lazy is good..but for 2007 we are NOT going to fall into that pattern young lady! Have a wonderful New Year's!
