Struggling starts - today.

Need to:
-grab the book from my Clinical prof because I am retarded and forgot to write down salient bibliography information
-get my sleep schedule back on fucking track
-study for Adolescence some more, because I want to do better than 75% in that class
-write a page or two of my Clinical paper
-finish my second short story; problem is, I don't know how to pull Thomas into wanting to take that last leap, and I hate forcing that sort of thing on characters

Thanfully, Rhetoric is cancelled this week, so I have a whole day that I can spend writing that Clinical Psych essay. Problem is, I KNOW it will be a protracted effort not to sleep until 5 PM.

And to fight the knowledge that when that is complete, I just have to start working on yet another essay...

I simultaneously feel like I have no time and too much free time.

Must crush self into good work habits, starting... now.

*merf*

Can't sleep. Same old, same old. Not that I didn't TRY, but...

BLAAAAARGGGG.

So!

I can't sleep, and it's 10 AM, so I've finally decided - I will not, NOT, NOT go to sleep before 10 PM tonight. I swear it. SWEAR!

To keep myself good and sane during the hour and a half that Pat is still asleep, I will write ABERRANT SUMMARIES~!

Okay, so maybe not "sane". But "good", it will keep me good.

For the subsequent Aberrant stories, you should know the following: Patrick, in lieu of the end of the world, has given us the following option. On a max-out, we can take temporary points of taint to achieve auto-successes. (10 temporary taint gives you a new taint, then resets to 0.)

Angel, however, made a stunning sacrifice: by maxing out Healing, and using up ALL HER TEMPORARY TAINT, she raised 32 people from the dead. And died (?) in a brilliant flash of light.

( Why using ex-Americans as resources is a bad idea: )

( The Liberation of Layla )

( The Search for Imago )

And that pretty much brings us up to the current times.

Will post more when more happens.
