No new writing on either my literature review or my novella this week. That said, I have had other huge assignments, all of which were due this week, so in all fairness I haven't really had time for much else. I made a four page noir comic and wrote a 1,000 word report to go along with that, and also finished off a monstrous statistical analysis assignment.
If anyone's interested, here's the comic (hopefully it won't take too long to load):

And something in my upper back/neck/shoulder area seems to have gone out of kilter for no reason, because it now hurts whenever I move/sneeze/yawn/exist. On the bright side though, Rex (Judgemental Dog, to the writers out there), who was suffering from bad arthritis in his paw last week, seems to have responded well to the cortizone injection the vet gave him. He's back to his happy, bouncy, judgemental self, and he should keep getting better since he has to have another shot every week for the next month.
Now I have to finish some other junk I'm meant to present my honours supervisor tomorrow, as well as filling out 30 pages of ethics forms... *headdesk*
I think Judgemental Dog means business :S

Hope the back/neck/shoulder works itself out. Don't you hate it when you have to sneeze *and* brace yourself against (further) injury? My best to Rex, too. I have arthritis in my paws as well. ;)
ReplyDeleteOh wow. Energy drink withdrawal is serious business. It was harder to see when I was going through it, but when my husband quit, I felt awful for him. Glad Judgemental Dog is feeling perky again! He certainly looks happy in the pic. All those friendly teeth...
ReplyDeleteWay to go with sticking through the tough part of school AND sticking to your writing goals, even if you have to put the latter on pause for a little bit. School does not last forever and I think it's law that we're supposed to hate it. This too shall pass.
Bec, for some reason I missed this post and have only just caught up. Love the comic (melodramatic with purpose). Keep up the great work.
