Over Here, Damn Horse!

by Megan Frampton on January 17, 2009

This week, due to illness (mine earlier in the week; my son’s later this week) and sundry stresses, I didn’t work out or write as much as I have in past weeks.

And tomorrow would be a dandy day to do the former, and I’m wondering: Once I’ve fallen off the horse, how can I get back on again? I mean, I feel like I don’t even know how to get astride! Grumble. Once I’ve stopped a ‘good’ habit, it’s darn hard for me to pick it up again. Bad habits are a snap (q-tips; interrupting; shoving things randomly into drawers; drinking; etc.).

What’s more, I got some excellent feedback on my contemporary, and I gotta work on polishing that. Editing is way harder than writing fresh stuff, because the fresh stuff can stink. The editing is supposed to remove said odor.

Not only am I meandering, I’m boring, too.

Another thing to work on.

I don’t know if you can get back onto the horse, but it sure is a nice photo! Or is it a painting? Oh, wait, yes, of course you you can get back on.
