A Day without Reading

I was so tired that I slept 14 hours - from 8 PM until 10 AM with breaks for bathroom and telephone calls - to call off from work. My cough was worse and I needed some time just to rest.

I didn't read and I didn't write anything except a short blog. I couldn't concentrate long enough.

I just watched hours of recorded X-Files, jotting down story ideas when they came to me. I hardly ate, either - mostly a bowl of cereal and lately a bowl of fat-free, sugar-free ice cream.

Watching another X-File before going to bed - always good to get the creative juices flowing - in my sleep.
