My brain just exploded

I've spent the whole day working on my novel, but not actually writing much of anything new ... I'm just taking the scenes in the first half (which weren't working) and rearranging them. And then having to rewrite because suddenly people are talking about things they shouldn't know yet, and the pacing STILL doesn't work.

*bangs head on keyboard*

This show sounds fun; too bad it's only in Canada. Would you believe I actually wrote up a proposal for something similar to this when I was in high school? Stop laughing! In the early '90s I really wanted to create and produce TV shows. I had several different shows that I created cast lists and series bibles and everything for. This was one of them, only it was more of a soap opera, about a Muslim family that moved into a conservative American town. Some of the characters sound eerily similar.

Yuck, sounds like you've got the crud I had the last couple of weeks. What's with these germs going around this winter?

And yes, my imagination is definitely over-active.
