I've realized some things.
I've realized that I can't control how other people act. More to the point, I cannot allow the actions of other people, even people I love dearly, to upset me to the point that I can't function. I've been pulling myself through for the last few days, but I can't continue to live like that. I have to move on.
If moving on means leaving someone behind who doesn't want to move beyond whatever it is that is bothering them, then so be it. I can't change them. I can only change me, and only to a point.
I don't know what happened this weekend. I'm not sure I care anymore. What I do know is that I am not giving up the things I enjoy doing because someone has their nose out of joint over something I know nothing about.
I have also realized why I've been having so many problems writing this current book. I didn't do enough back story - there are two major things I have to work out.
1. I need to know what happened at the Elephant House.
2. I need to know more about what my magic/psychic system is.
So, tonight (if I don't go out to breakfast, which I might) I'm going to work on that. I need to do some potlucky stuff tomorrow (one of the guys is leaving - boo!) and finish cleaning for writing group on Saturday.
To my writing crew friends - how do tacos sound?

BTW, I think you'll laugh when I start posting some stuff on the Elephant House/the characters. Not telling anything else - but I think you will. ;)

Dude. - anne moya
I see you are still blogging (I actually had to look up that guy to see if he heard from you and he mentioned your e-log.) so things (apartment/home) wise must be okay.
So I will leave you alone until contact is made.
Squidging away on characters,
Anne Moya

A Writer's Funk...
There's always room for burritos and quad-espressos.
Are we doing New England this winter or what?
