The Pledge and the Closet

[przed]

I took draycevixen's pledge yesterday, and promised myself 23,000 words on the Big Bang story by the end of the weekend.

So what did I spend this afternoon and most of this evening doing? Writing? Nope.

Instead, I completely purged my closet of every piece of clothing I no longer wear, no longer fits, is no longer a style I can carry off, or just leaves me wondering what the heck was going through my head when I bought it. I actually found a summer blazer with shoulder pads. Shoulder pads! Obviously, it was one I haven't worn in years, if not decades.

The closet is now kind of amazing. Things aren't squished together anymore. I've organized the clothes in a way that makes sense. I may even now start on my fashion dream project: photographing every piece of clothing I own and uploading the pics on my iPod, so never again will I look at a skirt or a turtleneck or a pair of awesome funky tights in a store and wonder if I have something that'll go with it.

The writing wasn't a total write off, though. Look!



It's still possible I could hit 23,000 words tomorrow, if I have an awesome writing day. So, fingers crossed...

You can totally do 2,200 words (less than, really) in a single day. Totally! I have faith.

Most especially now that your closet is immaculate.

Ah procrastination of the best sort, the "productive" gambit. My closet scares me, I'm not going in there without a pith helmet and an elephant gun. Too many things I never/hardly ever wear but can't part with like the antique dresses I wore in grad school to confuse people. *g*

Yay on the word count. *\oo/* *twirls you*

Whoa! Way to procrastinate and be productive, so you actually feel good about it...and then write as well! That's a good day. *g*

Good luck with the additional words! You can do it!

I wish I could do that, my wardrobe is very very full and I reckon I wear about a quarter of it. I managed to throw out / donate a couple of things every month or so but then I buy more!

Oh and fantastic word count ♥.

At least it was a productive kind of procrastination.

The pictures on the ipod thing while brilliant sounds way to OCD to me! Lol!
