Need to get up, get organised

The battle between "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" and "The Weakest Link" meant last night's TV programmes were fab, which left me no time to watch the Chelsea game I taped. Dunno whether I'll have any time today.

I feel like my life's slipping out of control. There are too many things I don't want to do. Still I've got to look for a job, when all I want to do is to improve my writing. I've already wasted too many years - if only I hadn't given it up ten years ago. For fuck's sake, I shouldn't give myself any excuse to waste my time wallowing in self-pity. Gotta do something. Anything.

First of May

Got the idea for this story when it was May, but now it's already August. Alright, this may not be a good story, but it can still work as writing practice, I guess.

Now this is my first task for today: Write the first draft for this story. And try to use what I've learnt.

such a lovely day
so let's go out and play
look directly at the sun
get sunstroke one by one

without filters
no sunglasses
Without hurry
without worry
with four bunnies
and five puppies
and six teddies
and nine penguins

in the morning we are sleeping
watching tv till the evening
in the night we go out drinking
we loaf about for a living
