My stress levels are still off the chart. No, there's no word on my ongoing situation. No, I can't ride on the Metro any more without thinking about it. Money continues to be a big problem.

Writing is stalled because, after eliminating one substantial occurrence in my current book (I just didn't think I could make it work and still leave the writing at the same quality as if I didn't try to do it to begin with) I'm at a standstill. I need to rethink the scene but there's too much going on at the moment.

I'm hoping this weekend will make a difference. I have a dentist appointment on Monday so I just said screw it and took Friday off as well; I have the saved credit time to do it. Four days of rest might do me some good.
