Heh - well it was afternoon for me! :)

Writing feels to me like something I can't NOT do. It's weird, and sometimes I'm not sure it's entirely healthy - in a way, I think it's a way of not dealing directly with things.

That said, I guess everyone has different coping mechanisms for getting through life - mine tends to be either composing long, involved journal entries that help me get my thoughts straight, or escaping entirely by writing fiction.
