Hey, Miss J!

What should I do about my podcast?

Current Song: Warrant – Heaven

I received an email recently from a company involved with the payment system with my Podcast. But… I never got a payment. This is weird.

What will I see when I go back on?

Why am I even worried about this? I had something else in mind before this Warrant song came on.

It does weigh heavily on me sometimes.

So many unfinished projects.

If I go back to filming for the Sims 4, I’ll have to stick to “Builder” videos. They seemed to do better than my gameplay ever did. Then again, to get a decent video of 15 minutes or so, I have to film for like two hours. That counts for both builder videos and gameplay vids.

I certainly am unable to game like that every day. So, to accomplish such an insane goal, I’ll have to see what I can squeeze into my planner.

I have a few projects I need to consolidate and deal with.

Let’s list them here for memory’s sake:

• TheGamesLyst needs 1 new video.
• TheReadingLyst needs 1 new video.
• Both TikTok accounts can have edited down segments of the corresponding videos for the channels.
• Podcast needs a new audio recording (and for me to login for the first time in months maybe? Oops!)
  • I’m still debating back recording my blog posts from July, along with original content for the Podcast.
• “Open Arms” needs a full revision of all 11 chapters!
  • It’s so bad that the revisions mean I’ll have to literally rewrite each and every chapter. Yikes…
  • It also needs chapter 12, which I only had half written.
• “Navigating the Curve” needs revision from Chapters 6-8.
  • What’s included? Brand new content for all three chapters, which saves me the nightmare of wading through my own ego-centric writing and plentiful typos. Now, NEW TYPOS with extra flavor!
  • It also needs chapter 19, which I haven’t started yet. Oops.
    • It’s planned though, along with a few other surprises!
• “The Sweetest Treat” needs a few minor edits. I’ll make sure to note so at the bottom of the chapter as I’ve been doing with all of the revisions for NtC.
• “Perspectives” needs to be frame-worked and started. It’s a new one-shot I have in mind.
• Jewelry needs molding – painting – spraying – hooking! Wait… that sounded wrong. Hooks. It needs to be hooked! There we go!
  • I also have to set up a list of proper prices for the pieces.
  • … And pick up my new sandpaper.
• Sketches are needed for additional design possibilities. Both in the Sims and for the jewelry. And… just for myself.
• Edited In: “The Craving” needs to be frame-worked and planned out. Then started. Maybe I can have a minimum of 5K for the chapters for this one? IDK.

Mind, these are all projects, so they don’t take into account the three writing assignments I have on a weekly basis (…four this week…) that can take me 2-3 hours per. Or the fact that I currently have to manually wash my clothes… which can take 2 hours. For a single load. 😦

Current Song: Celine Dion – Water From The Moon

I got an idea from a segment of lyric from the first song:

How I love the way you move

And the sparkle in your eyes

There’s a color deep inside them

Like a blue suburban sky

When I come home late at night

And you’re in bed asleep

I wrap my arms around you

So I can feel you breathe

I don’t need to be a superman

As long as you will always be my biggest fan

I think I’ll pull inspiration from that one for “The Craving”, which needs to get off the ground. Considering one of the characters actually has blue eyes, this helps a lot!

Hmm… I’ll go up to edit that in. Course, when you see this, it’ll seem as if it was already there.

I assure you.

It was not.

So, eleven projects, but only seven days in a week. Oh man… I’m gonna end up being very busy. But it needs to be coordinated. I am certainly not updating NtC weekly, nor will I resume doing that for OA.

See that? All of that?! That chaos is what I need! It’s the best way not to focus on all my problems and end up extra depressed or anxious again.

I also need to fit in time for daily exercise.

Grrr… I guess that planner will come in handy, eh?
