I have an <em>itch<\/em> to sit curled up in the back of of a cafe with a coffee and a journal and a good pen and see what happens. But I don&#8217;t have any scenes or even images in mind and more stuff to finish than is good for me so I&#8217;m being RESPONSIBLE and CAREER ORIENTED and procrastinating on Space Crazies with every possible responsible career-oriented task I can think of.<\/p>\n<p>Also cleaning.
