Cav's Place

With most protesters taking it easy lately, the few calls generally referring to showing support to the person who’s on a hunger strike in front of the Bucharest National Theater for over a week and making sure at least one other person is there with him at all times, there was little point in rushing yet another Bucharest protest report by the end of the week, so it was time for another personal post and I decided to wait until Sunday to write it, just to finish the year with one of the Sunday updates that had become the norm in previous years. Of course, if there would have been some other major action announced for today, this would have been impossible, but seeing as it’s the second Sunday in a row I spend at home, after no less than 16 in a row spent protesting, there was no reason not to do it this way.

This will be quick, but I should say that I absolutely need to set aside a day at some point and do something about my story, because there’s no improvement despite the fact that I no longer have the protests as an excuse at the moment. I somehow managed to get through chapter 43 without actually writing what should have been in it and now 44 absolutely needs to include a certain event I had in mind since long before I started to actually write any of it, but I’m still merely wasting a little more time and space every night and don’t even know how to get to it from where I am, much less how to actually write the entire scene in detail. I know I said I’ll set aside a day before as well and obviously didn’t do it, but if this keeps up like this, there’s truly no point in it anymore.
An additional problem is that finally being able to make some purchases from GOG.com means I ended up with even more games I really want to start playing even though I have plenty of others started and abandoned and am quite aware that I’ll most probably do the same with the new ones as well, while the fact that MobyGames has been rolled back to the previous design means I started submitting mobyranks again, which is obviously taking some time each day. As such, while I’m no longer busy with the protests for the moment, there are other things I’d like to do before I lose even this tiny shred of enthusiasm that can be said I found once again, and writing isn’t among them.

Before ending this, I also want to mention that it’s quite unpleasant to see Eurosport no longer broadcasting ski jumping live on the main channel due to focusing on football. After that announcement, I was thinking I’ll simply shrug off my interest in the sport, but the Four Hills Tournament is taking place these days, so other methods will have to be used and then I’ll try to reach a decision about the future after it’s over.
