I'm seeing the endodontist next week about the old root canal that's failing.

root canals and I have not been friendly lately )

I've been doing a lot of writing this month, but the big two that I really want to finish - a practical acquaintance with bees and Sokovia, Suburbia, and the Senate - are waiting for Civil War, just to see where the characterisation/story goes. Both are very much going to be jossed, but a practical acquaintance should be okay, because it was never going to stick to the score after Cap2 anyway. Mostly I want more Bucky characterisation for that, which Civil War should give us as The Winter Soldier didn't.

Sokovia, Suburbia, et. al is a different kettle of fish, mostly because it's a Civil War aftermath fic that doesn't follow the movies. And that confuses people a great deal, particularly after movies come out and are not what people predicted they'd be.

Plus, I was having trouble with the next section anyway (rewrote it about 5 times, summarised it, detailed it, deleted it again, rewrote it another 5 times, and Steve is still not playing ball with the story). I think I'm going to have to recalibrate that section entirely, start somewhere else, and introduce the next set of characters, backstorying the parts that I was trying to write. Ugh.

But all this depends on me having the energy/inspiration to actually write.

Let's not even go near the subject of profic and my upcoming 40th birthday. I haven't written any profic in a couple of years - too much second-guessing myself.

Speaking of my 40th; I need to have a word with the parentals about the party they want to throw me when I get back from overseas...
