I didn't go to bed.

After mulling things over a little bit, I started writing. I'm about 2000 words in, and I'm happy with that. It's going on 4 AM, and if I'm going to function at all tomorrow (and I want my headache to stay manageable), I'd better get some sleep.

This writing project is really cathartic. I'm taking a real-life situation as the foundation, tossing in a few "what-ifs", and then building fiction out of it. I'm getting a lot of emotional steam out of my system, which is always good.

Time to head to bed. For real this time.

Night!
