So...had what I imagine is the classic journo-thing this afternoon: went to this 'webinar' thing, slept through most of it, played on my cell-phone for the rest, and then went home and bashed out 500 words about it which I've decided in retrospect were pretty damn decent.
As I understand it, its how we're supposed to function - half asleep or on drugs or medication but on some level taking it all in....and then able to manifest exactly what's needed in an unreasonably short space of time. Its how they always do it in the movies. The subconcious is a wonderful thing - you can sort of do it on auto-pilot.
At the time I was so completely 'over it' I decided that I wasn't going to do the story and was trying to find the least obnoxious moment to sneak out. No jokes. There's a lesson in there somewhere.
And not only did I get a decent story out of it, but I was also quite inspired in terms of what I want to end up doing career-wise. All in retrospect of course.
