my brain seems to be very much recalitrant of late. for i am wanting to start rough drafting my thesis. but before i can do this i need to sort out the plot of the thing. for i know who the characters are and their backgrounds and everything and some of what happens toward the beginning and vague inklings about the ending but none of the middle at all. and i don't even know the beginning enough to start writing and see what happens. instead i have outlines of family history and some monologue by my protagonist. and i know what i think the story arc wants to look like but i don't know what the plot is.
and i keep spending all this time playing foolish computer games, which leaves my brain free to think about it, but all it wants to do is make more background and flesh out the details about the world. which is all very well but i could do that later. right now i want to be able to have something to show and that requires having an inkling what to write in the actual story. mew. anyone know good ways to assault writer's block?

i got a job!!
more properly, an internship, like 2 1/2 days a week. small non-profit so there'd be real projects in addition to phone/mail room type stuff.
this means my semester will be completely packed and overworked but i'm really excited.
