Mood: Fired Up

I had a day off of work and deserved it. I went out to Shelbyville early to have dinner with the ex before my Clear Creek Writers Group meeting. She was in a dither about her sister and brother-in-law. Her parents built their natural rivalry into an unhealthy one a looooong time ago and it doesn't look like it will be fixed anytime soon. My ex also has some issues she needs to deal with herself before she goes fixing her other relationships. I said issues like a true child born in the fires of therapy. Next I'll be yakking about boundaries and passive-aggressive qualities.

We had a good meeting with a new member. I have grown wary of our extended roster but I was motivated to write over a thousand words on my short story when I got home so....My goal for the new year is to write a plethora of stories and find a home for them. And to exercise more diligently. And pilot the space shuttle Endeavour straight up Leonardo DiCaprio's no talent ass. Aim high I always say!!
