• Very interesting development.

  After we discovered that the Landfamily (I have no idea what to call these people) enjoyed doing their laundry at 6 AM, we sent them a very nice email. We told them we’d prefer if they ran the machine a little later, as as I do most of my writing in the early hours and the noise is quite distracting. The thing is, though, while I always used this time to read or research or edit, now I feel compelled to actually write. Even when I have nothing to write about.

  Like today.

  But what can I do? I feel like they’ve made an effort – using only the dryer (which is far less annoying) in the early hours and saving their wash until more reasonable times. Now, to not make a liar of myself, I must churn out reams of trash (and, hopefully, small quantities of decent prose) daily.

  Ground floor living; I should have thought it through.
