9 pages

9 pages, you say? 9 pages of what?

Aye, there's the rub. I wrote 9 pages tonight. Not of anything purposeful, mind you, but of a piece of original fiction. Not fan fic, original.

That's great, working on your own stuff.

Heh. I have a presentation to prepare, a two page paper for Monday, some reading for Art History, some more reading for foreign policy, and oh yeah, my paper for foreign policy which now wants outside sources. So I have to figure out what the hell this library has. I don't keep a copy of my FPA reading list on me for nothing *g*. However, I don't know the layout here (scary, isn't it?) so I can just go stand and browse in the appropriate section.

And I wasted an evening. But I was reading too much of other people's stuff and felt a need to work on my own. And it felt good, working on my own stuff. But I really should have been doing real work, because I have TTB tickets Sunday night and so will be losing an evening's work. Not good.

But I still feel as if I accomplished something important. The stress just might kill me.

Can I be thoroughly annoyed?

(Not with the poster, mind you.)

That just reeks of "washed up former star".

How did I not realise this before?

Who did I get attached to in the TAC? David Bardsley, Matt Cammelle, and Jérôme Pradon.

Who are my barricade boys? Combeferre, Feuilly, and Courfeyrac.

I'm pretending there's not a connection because at the time, I didn't know who Jérôme played and had him pegged as any variety of others, and I was in love with COmbeferre from the first description (and we all know I have never been immune to Courfeyrac charm).

But Feuilly. At one time, I had Matt Cammelle pegged as Joly, and at the time, I adored Joly. I still like Joly, but I wasn't so attached to him as to keep writing him when we started role playing at Le Café. I was attached to Feuilly by that point. I knew Matt Cammelle played Feuilly at that point. The general physical description continues to align rather well with Matt Cammelle at this point.

I suppose it could be worse. How, I'm not sure. But I suppose it could be worse.

(I realised the Feuilly thing before. But the implications of my main triad just hit me, possibly not for the first time, but with the force of something I don't remember having considered before.)
