I can't sleep for the life of me. I caught some kind of bug while I was working as a counselor for a whole bunch of three and four year olds, so I was spacey and tired all day. I slept for almost three hours when I got home and not I feel much better... and wide awake. I want to sleep, but I can't.

There are several things I could be doing to take advantage of my wakefulness
1) Work on my crazy-long Jadis!fic
2) ~~Work on my Supernatural fanpoetry~~

zempasuchil helped me realize what it needed, and now I just need to turn my brainstorming into verse
3) Sort books into stuff to bring to college and stuff to *sob* leave at home
4) Read Stardust so I can finally check it off my list of summer books
5) ~~Watch Supernatural and wish that zempasuchil were awake so I can liveblog at her~~ She woke up and we watched "Crossroad Blues" I cried
6) Study French
7) ~~Play Omegle and try to find GQMFs~~ No one was playing along, so it got boring pretty fast.

I have half of a supernatural poem running around in my head with nothing to connect it to, and I've discovered something. Fan-poetry is so much harder to write than just regular fic. You need to have some kind of structure, or at least writing style if you're doing free form. The whole thing just needs to be more tight. So one verse about Sam and Dean dreaming is not enough to be a whole poem, but I have no idea what else to put. I want my muse to tell me how this poem goes, is that too much to ask?

Tomorrow is my last day as a counselor at Vacation Bible School and I'm really going to miss all those little kids.

Two and a half weeks till college! I'm going to need to start weaning myself off lj, so I can enjoy the place I'm in.
