Sleepy...and Sleepless

Blah. Insomnia strikes again. LOL

I just can't sleep. It's quite pitiful, actually. Typically if I can't sleep, I do something around the house--clean or whatever. Usually that helps--whether it tires me more or clears my mind, I don't know. But tonight I am just too darned tired to get up and do something. hehehe

So I'm on the computer. I actually got a lot of stuff done on here. Got my files cleaned up and even wrote a bit. We'll see how much I like what I wrote after I get a few zzz's in. At this moment, though, I'm happy with the words I got in. LOL

I'm working on a short right now--a menage. It's going well. It gave me some headaches in the beginning. The two heroes are friends, best friends, in fact, but they were not cooperating. Finally I stopped fighting them. And surprise, it started to flow. Damned me. :-)

The other manuscript I'm working on is the next in my Fey series. That isn't giving me any trouble. Leilen, my hero, has been bugging me to have his story told for a while, so he's very chatty. Although some of the secondary characters in this story are trying to grab my attention. I keep telling them it's not their turn yet. Funny, they're not so patient. ;-)

I'm so excited about this series--there are a lot of fun things coming up for my Faeries and I can't wait to share them with others. :)

Okay, it's time to try to go horizontal for a couple hours. Keep your fingers crossed for me. LOL

Insomnia Sucks

LOL I guess the title sums it up. I have yet to go to sleep. Normally if I'm up at this hour it's because I'm working or writing. Not this time though. I just can't sleep, and it's not from lack of trying. I *did* try to work a bit, but I'm so blasted tired, my mind is foggy. So I couldn't even focus on what was on the screen in front of me.

Add to that, I have to have the kids up and be out of the house in...oh, about an hour and a half. Urgh. Though one of my daughters is up and around. How I gave birth to a morning person, I will never know.

Later today, we're off to my sister-in-law's engagement party. Should be fun. :) Her fiance is awesome--she found a keeper. My kids adore him and he plays a mean game of cards...so all's good. LOLOL

Hopefully, I'll get to fit a wee nap in there somewhere...and hopefully my body will cooperate and SLEEP!
