Daily Check-in 5/8/08

Back to McDonald's this morning to eat breakfast and work on my current idea. Got in a little over an hour of writing time before I had to pack it up and go to my office. I like writing in the morning because it feels like my mind is more alert and I'm able to let the ideas flow more freely. But it's tough having to stop--sometimes in the middle of a good train of thought--to go earn a living. Of course, that won't be a problem during the four months of my sabbatical.
