Vibrations

Saw District 9 on Friday -- having been wowed by Neill Blomkamp's short film Alive in Joberg -- and was really impressed. Thing was, I put my phone on silent in the theater and forgot to reset it afterwards... causing me to miss all my calls on Saturday and most on Sunday before realizing the mistake. Yeah, I'm just brilliant like that.

Today I got to switch offices. Or, I should say move back into my regular office and out of my summer workplace. When I got there, I had the unusual feeling that I was walking across the bottom of the ocean, the silt stirring and swirling beneath my fingertips. It was that dusty and untouched.

And yes, I'm still writing away. I'm on a fun chapter, and it shows in the writing. I'm trying to start each chapter on a fresh beat to keep things jumping, but I'll only know when I finish the rough draft and read over everything if it works or not.

I saw this music video and suddenly started thinking of a new part of a back story for the main character in the book, but it doesn't relate at all to the song or the video. Strange how the brain works sometimes. Connections that aren't really connected at all. Still, I thank the artists and the creators of the video for the inspiration!

Monday's almost over, everyone. Stay fun.
