I
haven’t done any ‘what will I do this weekend’ posts for a long time now - I
have pretty much neglected all my blogs for quite some time. I’ve stopped
getting overly annoyed about things after my burn-out some years ago and I was
getting tired of basically doing the same kind of post once a week, just to
tell you what I was reading/watching/playing - especially as my plans and my
reality often differ. However, I think I might take up my posts about plans for
the weekend again.
So,
what am I going to do this weekend?
I’ve
several stories that need more writing, my old enemy, the ending, is at it
again. It’s true, I find it easy to start a story, I get though the middle well
enough, but I have a hard time with the end. Perhaps, subconsciously, I don’t
want the story to end, as I like writing. Consciously, I often am not sure
where to end, since I usually think further ahead than necessary, make up much
more of my characters’ fate than I need. I should finish some smut stories I’ve
been writing (first time I got past the beginning of vampire stories in a long
time), most of them merely need a few more scenes. There’s a couple of Loki
stories which only miss a chapter or two, same goes for the retelling of a
fairy tale I did a while ago. I’ll be occupied for more than just a weekend
with all of that, though.
I’ll
probably be reading in “The Shadows of Sherlock Holmes,” an anthology edited by
David Stuart Davies I bought ages ago. It includes a lot of detective stories
written at the same time as Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories and
overshadowed by them. I have been cross-reading it before, but now I want to read
all of the stories.
I’ll
definitely be watching the last episode of “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”
this weekend, as I just downloaded it from iTunes. In addition, I think of
tackling either Season 4 of “Doctor Who” (new series), the one and only season
of “Dracula,” and/or the second half of the second season of “Sleepy Hollow.” I’ve
still got a lot of catching up to do.
I’ll
also be playing some stuff, hopefully. I want to finish some TMs, namely “Sweet
Kingdom,” “The Musketeers - Victoria’s Quest,” and “Fairy Kingdom.” I’ve also
got quite some HOGs that need finishing, at least “Midnight Mysteries:
Ghostwriting” and “”Revived Legends: Titan’s Revenge” deserve to be finished
soon, since I got far with those already. I also want to go back to some
adventures I was playing, like the remakes of “Gabriel Knight - Sins of the
fathers” and “Grim Fandango.”
I’m sure I won’t get to
finish all I planned. I’ll definitely watch “One of Us” tomorrow or during the
weekend. I might start on “Sleepy Hollow,” since it’s only seven episodes and
the other two series I want to watch are longer (10/14 episodes). I might get
somewhere with my games, too. I should also play the second episode of “Tales
from the Borderlands” this weekend, since it just came out and I have really
been waiting for it. So much to do and little weekend.
