Writing cramp...as in mental, or are you writing by hand, partially?
I'm mostly writing then typing.
Had a lunch meeting today, though, so I haven't gotten much in yet. Granted, I'm ahead, but I'm also fretting over the story and it's been painful, painful writing lately. If I ever go back and edit, I think much of the text from the last few days will be yanked and replaced with a summary.

Good evening!
Well, I took a few days off and feel much better. I had an absolutely splendid day, dispite it getting cool and a bit blustery!
We went to a salvage yard. Oh, it was paradise! There were Beetles all over the place and I scored a fantastic chrome front bumper, including the bumper braces, off a '70 Beetle, made the month before mine. It was a bit pricey, only about $20 less than brand new, but brand new is made in Mexico and this is authentic, German-make!
The guy threw in a chrome driver's side mirror too and thus I believe we come to the end of the things "missing" on my Beetle, except for an few thing in the motor...which we can't get in a salvage yard anyway...they'll have to be replaced new when the motor is rebuilt. Oh, and of course the headliner, carpeting, mats and seat covers which will naturally be fresh and brand new.
Then, I got Steve his birthday present. A Craftsman MIG welder. It's a "refurbished" one, so cost about half the price of one in the store, but can be exchanged if it doesn't work. It looks completely brand new.
We'd like to try it out, but alas...tonight is the RA "lock in" sleepover at the Church Down the Street. Both the boys and Steve are gone and will be gone all night, consuming pizza, chips, cookies and watching movies till the wee hours, I'm sure.
I'm home alone.

I really needed today.
