My SIL measures the size of kitchen in bums. She has a two-bum kitchen maximum capacity. My grandma's kitchen was a one-bum kitchen, for sure. Mine is much larger: I'd say it's a four-bum kitchen.
But the hallways between our cubicles at work? One and a half bums. Two if both people are skinny.
We need a passing lane.

A Bum or Two or Three

Basically, I'm a Bum
Here's the thing. Every time life has gotten stressful, my writing goes away. Wedding? Funeral? Primary Program? New job? New baby? I have no record of any of these things. My posterity will think my life just sailed along without anything hard because I never write about them till the stress is gone. And once the stress is gone, what's to write? I made it through. Let's not think about it ever again.
Additionally, I haven't gone running in a week and a half. Never mind that the Ragnar is just two months away. It's too cold. I'm too stressed.
Yard work? Forget it.
So really, I'm just a bum. I come home, get into my jammies, and curl up with a book, a movie, The Biggest Loser, or my embroidery. I guess the writing's not the only thing that goes away.
BTW, the fact that I'm writing tonight is a good sign. :)
