Goodnight ominous triangle at the foot of my bed

Urgh. I had to take some anxiety meds before I went to bed last night - double the tiny amount I usually take because I wasn't calming the fuck down fast enough - and I woke up with the worst headache, because I can never drink enough water to compensate for the meds dehydrating me. This on top of the mundane but annoying hallucinations before I fell asleep (it... went kind of like this), really vivid nightmares, and sleeping through my alarm.

On the bright side, I actually finished a thing last night! By... bribing myself with a nap if I wrote words fast enough, and boy it worked. I'll take it, I guess. So... cleaning that up and posting it to [community profile] rainbowfic, while I try to figure out what I'm working on next.

I should probably finish any one of the half-finished things sitting on my Google Drive, but... ugghhh...

It's just the worst. All I want is to get on with my night without hyperventilating IS THAT SO MUCH TO ASK?

CONGRATS for finishing a thing. I keep forgetting to comment but I have been reading along happily with what you've been putting there and I await new things eagerly. :D

(Many, many hugs for the rest of it.)

(Also I sympathize so much with the half-finished things. I have more "firm ideas but unstarted", but the couple of things I DID start drive me up a wall when I think of them sitting there.)

Thank you! Knowing people actually care about my words makes me happy! ^^

(And ugh. Uggghhhh. Why are words so hard and awful? I swear I knew where I was going with these things when I started...)

I understand. ^^ I will endeavor to actually comment in the future, I am just... really bad at it when I'm not exhausted and reading most things on my phone.

(I KNOW. I have had this rainbowfic story sitting for months. I know EXACTLY where the rest of this is going, why can I not make the words come oooout.
My total for this year so far isn't even 1500. Guess who's probably never catching up for GYWO. Sigh.)
