Songwriter's contest

Earlier this week I was invited to a Songwriter's Contest. I said that maybe I'd submit an entry. In the shower, I did come up with a main verse, though the contest wasn't on my mind at the time. The song, which is tentatively titled Perfectly Yours, is about the promise of a pure devotion despite the fact that such a devotion cannot be requited. Based on a real story, and I think you can guess whose.

It appears that there will be anywhere from 12 to 22 contestants. I'm not really going for the win, but while I'm forcing myself to do things I might as well participate. I'll finish the song tomorrow morning. It's late and, as I mentioned, I'm quite tired right now. I think the deadline is 10AM, but that isn't particularly clear.

When I've written up the lyrics, I'll make sure to show them to you here. Someday I'll record a vocal performance of it, too. I did record that main verse, to note. I wonder if you'll like the song?

Woah tired

This evening I'm very tired much earlier than usual. Usually I'm hardly wanting to retire at midnight. But tonight it's only 10 and I'm nodding off. I'm hardly coherent enough to put words together right now, honestly.

I didn't just eat. I didn't physically work hard today. One possibility is that I'm having a good day, and my lack of apathy is causing me to feel the weariness of waking up too early. Another possibility is that watching shows is starting to put me to sleep, having given me enough distraction from my own thoughts. Finally, for dinner I ate much more than usual, so maybe the increase in food intake is doing this? That was hours ago, though, so I have my doubts.

I'm going to go with good day. I may have awoken early today, but it has been a pleasant day. Nobody said a mood can't start in the middle of the day, right? I hope I get a lot of sleep tonight and have another good day tomorrow! After I write my second message, that is. And, of course, I hope you sleep as much as you can.
