picowrimo, where I tried to explain why there hasn't been any writing today. So, here it goes:
We cleaned the dratted flat. It took us only, oh, six hours, together with the hired help. Then I did the shopping for next week, because I'll be at work day and night, and my mother mustn't lift anything heavier than two pounds and she has to eat while I'm doing slave labour, the poor thing.a
Then I watched Cake Battle on German TV and felt the irresistible urge to bake something. A simple pear cake, in case you want to know. And since I was in the kitchen already, I cooked the meal for tomorrow.
Then I did some editing. I dug out a few old drabbles and double-drabbles in the hope that without the constricting for I might turn them into a Tolkien advent calender, which I haven't done for many, many years and felt like doing this year. It worked fairly well as long as I had existing material (that is, for the first four days), but I felt myself totally uninspired to write any new stuff.
Am very frustrated. I think I'll watch Megalodon with John Barrowman - a really bad shark movie, in which he plays a straight guy and has to make out with women in the shower. Misery loves company, after all.
