Fingerpaint again again

Okay, it's been over two weeks since I've done any writing. There have been a lot of other things going on, and I could easily use that as an excuse. But the truth is, I've had plenty of time to work, and I just haven't been. This piece could have been finished almost over night, but instead it's been dragged out for almost two months. Enough of this.

New rule for Daniel: Until Fingerpaint is finished, I won't listen to any new Glenn Gould CDs (I've been working my way through the wonderful box set of his complete studio recordings), and I won't rent any CDs from the library.

Also, so I don't lose any momentum after Fingerpaint is done: From now on*, I won't open Winamp, play a video game or read a book unless I've already spent at least an hour writing.

This seems childish, I know, but it's what I need.

*during the day, on weekdays, assuming I'm not away from home
