The Library Book Project – 5 August 2010

I’m going on a diet. Right now. Seriously, what is all this? I’m soft and white all over. It’s the crap food I eat all the time. I went to the kebab shop yesterday and they layer all the meat over your fries. They absorb all the leaking fat, leaving you with heavy, greasy carbohydrate that tastes good but feels very bad. They turn to rock overnight in your belly. I press my hand against my stomach and grimace at the mirror.

I pick up my book and head into the bathroom, anticipating that I may be in there for some time. I wonder if it’s kind of gross that I’m taking a borrowed library book to read on the toilet. Nyaah. It’s not like I’m wiping my ass with it. I find myself slightly distracted from the words as the muscles in my gut clench painfully around my intestines.

I breathe and rest my forehead against the pages. After this I’ll go to the supermarket and buy fresh fruit, vegetables and all the other things that are meant to be good for you. I put down Then We Came To The End and wash my hands thoroughly. The towel is missing so I have to wipe my hands on my jeans before picking the book back up.

I’ll go to the supermarket and buy those things. But I’ll just finish this book first…

NaNoWriMo Complete!

ImageI did it! It’s been a pretty tough month, but I’m looking forward to having my life back. I think I’m going to take a little break from TBAP for a while. I’m feeling very fatigued by it. I’ve no idea what I’m actually going to do with my time from now on, though.

I’m thinking once I’ve taken a little break, I can do all the editing within another month. I still haven’t actually read the whole thing through.

Wondering how to treat myself. I’m thinking pizza, but since I’ve put on so much weight during NaNoWriMo, maybe I’ll have to stick to vegetable sticks…
