cherry chapstick
I am tired.
I have been working too much and I am still not finished.
I am not one of those people who posts things about the title and plot details of something, or the three or four things, I am working on. The only times I have ever done that is once the thing in question is set to be published.
So even my wife and kids don't know anything about what I do.
In fact, the only time they ever read anything of mine is after it's been actually published.
Most writers I know think that's crazy.
Oh well.
You know what I think is crazy?
Sleep-denying.
I can say this because I am reasonably confident that my daughter does not read my blog, but she is a chronic sleep-denier.
If I ever wake her up and say something like, "honey, you were asleep," or, "did you have a nice nap?" you know what she says?
"I was never asleep."
Every time.
She has this major problem with being okay with sleeping.
Not me.
Ask me if I was asleep.
I'll tell the truth.

My youngest sister sleep denies too, even if we hear her snoring.
I've never found family to be very helpful with stories. If I try to give them a story they'll never read it unless I stand there with a caddle prod. Maybe not even then.
I don't sleep deny, but I do wish I could live without more sleep. There is so much I could be doing instead of sleeping! I wish I could function on kid-duty during the day and writingsessions all night long. Sadly, never going to happen. Ah well.
LOL sleepy denying... I love it! Though, I never lie about sleeping--I can't quite get enough of it.
