I’m so mad

I’m all over the place today. Don’t laugh ok, but I’m writing a book. Ok you can laugh a little. It’s a total joke because I have this idea in my head that needs to come out and the words are all there, but it’s the process of getting them out that is killing me. Now before you get all excited, I am writing a book in my head. I have nothing on paper, no publisher, no nothing. Don’t ask me about it. Don’t even talk to me about it. Pretend that you no nothing and maybe in 20 years, I’ll finish this piece of shit book. Anyway, I wasn’t even planning on ever telling anyone I was writing a book until it was actually published and then I was going to have a massive party and not invite any of you. hahaha. I would invite my literary friends and heroes, like Vikram Seth and Nikesh Shukla. Arundhati Roy. You know the types. The only reason I’m telling you this is because my stupid computer had a meltdown on Thursday. I think I wrote the best 1000 words I had ever written in my life. And I kept saving because I knew my computer was melting down. It was due an update, but I just couldn’t stop the flow. So I kept saving. Then I did the restart and I lost all my work. All day Friday I was in tears. I just couldn’t deal with life in any way shape or form on Friday. I did no exercise. I ate 3 ice cream cones. I actually cried to Chump. I mean it was embarrassing. But Chump is a genius. He knows how much we love Snoop Dogg and Dre in our house so he said “do you remember that scene in Straight Outta Compton? You know when Dre leaves Death Row and Suge Knight tells him that he has all his money and all his work. And Dre was like fine. Because it was all in his head. He had it all inside him anyway. And then look what he did after? Look at Aftermath. Well, it’s the same thing with you. All the work is inside you. So it doesn’t matter if those 1000 words are gone. They are still there waiting to come out. Be like Dre.” Mind blown. Chump is my guru. I still look at my laptop and want to throw it out the window, but my new mantra is Be like Dre. Wait for the Next Episode.
