1st of Advent

I meant to clear up my room today, since my little brother might be coming for a visit next weekend, but somehow I never got around to it. Instead I lit the first tea light in my Advent’s tray, put on “Wire in the blood” and did some mental writing on “Ögon märken blå” (I’ve yet to come up with a good English title for this one, so I’ve decided to give it a working title — “Blue” — not to be confused with “Blue Vase”, another screenplay of mine…) I did intend to get some actual writing done as well, but by the time I got to that point, it was getting rather late and I had to leave to go clean my sister-in-law’s office.

I just talked to Cesar for a bit. Our weekly virtual date. It just went on for a little over an hour this time, because he was on his phone and the connection got really bad after a while. But it’s better than nothing. Sometimes it’s just nice to hear his voice.

I’m looking forward to the holidays, and to spending time with my family. I’m also looking forward to making films with Anja, and eventually, hopefully, getting away of this dreary city. Just one more year. And it’ll go by in no time, at the rate the world seems to be moving now, or maybe that’s just my energy. I don’t know. I just feel really wired lately. Which is probably why I haven’t been sleeping properly. Can’t seem to settle. (almost said “I’ll sleep when I’m dead”, but that would just be too cliché, wouldn’t it…)
