01/21/2006: "Date night and a writing question"
It's date night tonight, and up here on Mount Doom that means the two of us sitting in the living room, watching something on TV. Sometimes it's movies, and sometimes, like tonight, we're watching the first 2 episodes of 24, which we TiVo'd. There will mostly likely be popcorn. And blankets because our living room is freezing. But I look forward to date night, because most of the time, he's in his office on the first floor, and I'm in my office on the second floor. We both work in starts and fits, stopping to check email, to play a game of Spider solitaire, or play with the pup. So in the background, the work is always there, hovering.
I've thought about changing that, about making a time for work, a time for play, etc., but damn, I've been writing this way for so long, I'm not sure I could do it. Anyone out there have success in changing a long-time writing habit?
Anyway, we're off to town. Then it's home to bake a meatloaf and some cauliflower for dinner. Then 24!
