The vacation winds down, and come the morning it is time to get back to work.
We had a great trip down to Florida so that the Little Man could meet his great grandparents. It was a bit hot, but he got a lot of pool time, which he enjoyed greatly. We got back, and I was able to relax for my birthday. Then yesterday was the GSHW meeting, where I got to meet Chris Cevasco, the editor of Paradox Magazine, and hear him talk about the magazine, which was very cool. Today was the monthly D&D game with my old crew, the game is officially entering its 20th year of continuous play. Pretty freaking amazing.
On my vacation, I promised myself, no work. So no writing, no blogging, no nothing. I even mostly avoided the real job, except for one small glitch that happened on Labor day, and I wasn't sure if anyone else was going to have the chance to get to it before Tuesday. About the only thing I did that could be even remotely construed as "work related" was to read. Because I think once you set your mind to becoming a writer, you can never completely disconnect your writer brain when you read. But it was vacation, and vacation is for reading, so I just didn't care.
In the morning, it's back to work, which is fine. I can only tune those demons out for so long before I get nagged by what I know is going on at the office without me. And more importantly what isn't. Also, that means tomorrow I have to get back on the horse, and get the writing moving again. It'll be small steps, but I have to get ramped up again, even if the daily output is just a few paragraphs.
Time to read a last few chapters before the vacation is completely behind me.
