Seriously, I suck. But we'll leave my personal life out of this. Last week I had some goals, let's review:
- Force Lovey and Kiddo into 2 hours of daily family time. WIN – Guitar Hero brings people together
- Schedule a personal training session (it's free, thankfully). WIN – I went on Thursday and couldn't lift my arms all weekend!
- Hit the gym Monday and Wednesday morning, Friday after work. 2/3 WIN – I went Monday and Wednesday and Thursday too!
- Yoga on Tuesday night. WIN – I really enjoy this instructor. She makes me want to learn more about yoga.
- Finish all week one classwork BEFORE Saturday morning. FAIL – Ended up finishing by Saturday afternoon though.
- Stick to the eating plan. WIN – weekends are freebies and I ate well all week.
- Drink more water. A lot more. WIN – I am pretty gosh darn hydrated. I can see it in my face. Shh, Roboco, I know I'm looking a little hellish today.
- Be more focused at work. Eh, more or less WIN.
- Outline Chapter One of upcoming novel wannabe. EPIC FAIL – Can you not tell from my writing that it shouldn't go into book form?
- Cheer the Fins on to victory. WIN/FAIL – I did my part, the Fins did not do their part.
- Adult time with Lovey on Friday or Saturday night. FAIL – I felt like crap on Friday so I took a Flexoril. Bad move. I could not stay awake for more than an hour all day Saturday.
- Finish the current book I'm reading. (leisure) WIN – I have three more leisure books in the house before I consider ordering more.
- Install Joomla downstairs and read first two chapters of Joomla book. EPIC FAIL – There are less hours in a day and less days in a week than I thought.
So, more good than bad last week which is always nice.
Let us look at the goals for this week.
- Take yo ass to the gym at least four times this week. That membership is not free.
- Really, wrap up the school work earlier in the week. Maybe even try to get ahead? Do you really want to do homework while you're on vacation? MOVE IT!
- Try to find time to add stretching to the routine.
- At least install Joomla. One step at a time. Maybe read one chapter.
- Drag Lovey out of the house for a friend's party on Saturday…if I can stay awake.
- Research a book on writing a book. (Any help greatly appreciated on this one.)
- Pick up a bikini top and maybe a cute dress for Saturday.
- Make a conscious effort to be more optimistic.
Ok, I'm burnt.
Let me end this on a good note. While payroll screwed up my first check of the new year, they did scrw it up in my favor so I'll have an extra ~$100 in my next check. Hooray! Have a good one!
Wow… you did a LOT!!I have a few books on writing erotica but have been unhappy with all of them. I don't know what I need to know – but none of the books I tried contained it. Good luck!
I kinda cheated because I gave myself stuff I knew I would do.
I think that if I tried to write erotica, I would be better than writing a regular story, and while I have an idea for each, I really want to get this "clean" story out of my head and onto paper.
Thanks!
Maybe rather than worrying about how you write it, you should just dump it all on paper and then edit/reorg/clean it up later.
You're right. I guess it's all about the cut and paste when I'm in this stage.
I can assist with # 5 and possibly #7 🙂

I've already ran Saturday past him a couple times and told him that his buddy would be there, lol, so I think we're in.
And then last night I tried on all of my bikinis and two of them still work so I don't have to buy that, hooray! I will probably go with the sweater, jeans and boots for Saturday.
