Thank heavens its only Tuesday. This week is going far too fast as it is.

I think my Christmas shopping is done. Maybe. (Pleasepleasepleaseletitbedonehateshatesshoppinghatesit.)

Was stark raving nuts to start Torn World.

'Oh, this will be easy! Just create a world, bang, and we're done and can go write stories in it!' And now we're defining rank colors and respect gestures, and there's a seven form education system that parallels with a five-level guild system and I'm finally figuring out the language vowel and consonant rules (we've got a complete language system with a huuuuge vocabulary list and too many rules and variations for me to completely understand), and I've got a whole bevy of new webpage improvements that are in progress to (hopefully!) keep things streamlined.

It's exciting and wonderful and only a teeny step below completely overwhelming.

It's my current escapism and I've got a ton of energy and excitement for it - though I am honestly looking forward to having more of the building blocks finished so I can move on to the (more) fun stuff of writing.

Headache now, which sprang on me rather suddenly following lunch. Out for the count and probably making no sense anyway.

Yeah. That about sums it up for me, too! :D

You don't have to pin down all the details of the bureaucracy beforehand ... but you did write in a bureaucracy. And recruit a bunch of linguists.

It'll be fun?

I love it, but my mind just boggles!

I did! I have only myself to blame!

(And it's already enormous fun, it's just mind-boggling fun!)

I had no idea how much I didn't know about linguistics. :)
