"You forgot to set your alarm clock. It's Volcano Day."

writerinadrawer this week is making me want to cry.

I hate writing characters when they're drunk. Really, really hate it. I keep getting about a paragraph into any story I try and freezing up. And I can't just mention that someone offscreen is/was drunk, because I just know people will jump on that as an opportunity to vote it out because it doesn't fit the prompt.

It doesn't help that my body randomly decided to come down with the plague, and I took some decongestants that did help but made my head fuzzy and it's so fucking hard to think and... *FLAILS*

I really do not want to default, but I'm very concerned I just won't have a damn story 4 PM tomorrow. This prompt is killing me.

EDIT: Ohshitfuck. I just got attacked by a cockroach of doom. It climbed up the couch and IT WAS ON ME. *Whimpers* WHY?

EDIT II: *Deep breath* I did it. Somehow. I did it and it is DONE. And better than I thought it would be, though I rewrote the same 100 words or so about TWENTY TIMES until I got it write. And ended up having to cut over 100 other words to fit the word limit. Yeah.

Also, I swear, one day I'll write a story in which a pairing I like is happy. One day. *Is not Joss Whedon, we promise*
