And having ploughed through one surmountable challenge I am left with another, a challenge which this time I am unsure I can conquer. Is it time to attach a negative prefix, sadly it just may be. For today…drum roll please…I am hungover. Totally hungover to the point where my little noggin throbs. Why have I done this to myself I may hear you asking. It may be worthwhile skipping back a few posts and highlighting that I have already touched on the idea that we love doing things which are self-destructive. For today I am but half a man and unfortunately while this man may have maintained his discipline by sitting down in front of this laptop and pressing buttons, he refuses to partake in much thought. The moment I let myself down and go through the motions. Today is a sad day.
One particular plan I have is to write a few pieces and have them as backups incase it is impossible for me to write something one day. The chances of it being impossible are slim lets be honest, I can always find an hour spare at some point in the day if I really try. However imagine I am at sea sailing and I go nowhere near land for three or four days, without internet, oh the horror, I will be powerless. I think there is a handy function on here that allows you to automatically time when pieces are publish so I can set them up for a few days and they will publish at the same time each day. That is a justified reason but there is always the chance I will cheat one day when hungover or don’t find the time for one excuse or another. That is a cheat, being at sea is not. Next weekend I am not at sea but genuinely may not have the time, that is a dilemma. It is also worth pointing out that in the introductory piece I intentionally said I would publish a piece everyday and not write one and while I have broken my own self-imposed rules by writing more than four hundred words a few times I am loathed to not write on certain days through laziness as it defeats the point in this exercise all together.
So thats it. I’ve gone through the motions and I have my four hundred words. Have I achieved something. Only time knows the answer to that question.
