I’m betting it was the back-to-back 11.5 hour shifts. Maybe management is wanting me to take it easy and recover from the stresses of overwork. Or they had not gotten to my name on the “This Guy Don’t Need A Life” list before I had clocked out for the day.
Either way, I have a Day Off! It’ll be enforced by the Postal Tradition of “On my day off, I don’t have a phone and cannot be found”, while I wander around the house or to town to take care of chores and errands.
There will be a few writing sprints to attempt after the errands, but the next couple of days will also be used to refine the challenges for the Main Arc players. They’re in the Arc Finale Adventure, and while I don’t purposefully try to kill the characters, I want them to have an appropriate sense of difficulty.
The primary antagonist…oof. The players will have their work cut out for them.
While I’ve been considering the challenges of the day, be they physical or metaphorical, I was able to enjoy a few minutes of quiet on the front porch, while the woods around us was shrouded in the Louisiana fog.
Stay safe, readers!
