Writer's Block Woes

breezeshadowApparently the stress of the past few weeks has hit me over the head with the Writer's Block Shovel.
I tried to write a Tegre story and found myself only thinking of cliches. COME ON BRAIN. Cliches?!
I'm really itching for maybe a Nur story, so if I'm able to get that out, I will share it. But my brain is really being an unmotivated fool.
On happier news, though, I actually BOUGHT SOMETHING FOR MYSELF for once. For those who don't know, I got a raise/promotion combo, which means more money in my bank account, which throws me for a LOOP. So at the coaxing of three friends, I have bought... A shiny new gaming laptop.
It's not here yet but I'm so excited for it that I requested it be ready to ship in five days, and it's coming from right outside of LA. So as long as the fucking awful fires don't travel up the coast from San Diego, it should be here within a few weeks.
Speaking of those fires, we are in the most bare-boned drought throughout the state. Even here in the bay area, I can see where the bay is starting to RECEDE from the marshes because it's so damn dry. The fires are pretty far down so I am safe unless something starts in our area (which has happened in the past, though not when I lived here). My sympathies to those who live near or in San Diego though, especially since some articles are pointing towards a lot of it being arson. Which, bleh.
Going to go back to lazing about and trying to get some writing inspiration.
Tschuess.
