Xmas Day - the aftermath

Today was a bit of an anti-climax. I had work, which I had to force myself to go to as I'd lost my voice. Eventually I got sent home from paybox. I still can't believe how many people come into a cinema on Boxing Day. All watching 'Sherlock Holmes' which I'm still thinking about whether I should go in and watch it. I really can't watch Jude Law in anything. He's just one of those actors I cannot abide. But it has Robert Downey Jr, and he's always good value, and Rachel Mc Adams. I'm conflicted!

I don't know whether I'm doing something wrong , but my plays aren't scrobbling on LastFM which is slightly annoying. I've also worked out that the iPod earphones are the ones I have to stick to as I swopped them for the Skullcandy ones on the way to work and let's just say that the result was a tad underwhelming.

So far I'm still behind on my target of 100k,which is a bit worrying. I'm currently at 93k. Time to get my head down and concentrate. I'll switch to a couple of new projects , just to not make things stale for Milwordy.

That reminds me : I need to make a massive post on LiveJournal with all my pitches and plot bunnies for this Milwordy thing. I had a nosey round a site called languageisavirus.com and it had a lot of useful ideas and prompts for things. I want to try writing unusual things in a different style. Try out some new things and challenges. I might as well, seeing as I have to fill 1,000,000 words in a year.

I still think this is crazy but since they always say that you need to write millions of not good words before gaining writing skills perhaps this will help me get better at writing. At the very least I'll be decent at typing at the end of this.
