So after being miserably sick for a week and then writing a fic in five days that clocks in longer than my thesis -- longer than my thesis* -- I've decided that it's time to get back to business.

*Though to be honest, 35 pages isn't long for a thesis. It's just... why couldn't that have been written in five days? (I did a word count for comparison, because I'm curious. The fic was 15,731. My thesis? 11,275. Cruel, cruel world.)

William is showing up sometime tomorrow, and then we're heading to Maryland to visit Abby on Saturday, going to back to Haverford on Sunday, screaming mindlessly at each other for a long time for not having been productive over break on Monday, and getting back in the classroom on Tuesday.

I'm actually more excited than you might think. But seriously, world, riddle me this: How is it that break goes so quickly, with so little productivity?

tis indeed strangeness that most of a month can race by with so little in the way of written work to show for itself. I think I only managed to write some twelve thousand words over the entire break. Quite sad considering my goal was over one hundred pages of decent writing.

Right?

It wasn't writing for me, though, but reading. I had this giant stack of books that I just wanted to sit down and read forever since I don't get a chance to when I'm in school. (Also, some schoolwork, but psh.)

Maybe I should just quit the internet.
