I am very, very tired

The memorial service was ... nice? Can a memorial service be described that way? There were bagpipes. It was also Christian, conducted by their chaplain, which I found rather odd. What do they do for non-Christian members? (And Dad could only be described as Christian by a considerable stretching of definitions.) EDS completely ignored me the enitire time but stepbrother and stepsister talked to me perfectly pleasantly. I don't know.
I am very tired. When I got home, I went out again with Mum. Had to buy a present for cousin's new baby and didn't think I'd be up to going out today. I feel asleep around 8:30p.m. last night and woke up around 2p.m. today. Urgh.

On a different note, I have signed up for Nanowrimo. I tried (or at least signed up) once years ago but that was at a time when I was wildly overestimating my capabilities. Yeah, nothing happened. (Except for possibly furthering my state of collapse.) This time however, I have a story idea that's sticking with me but I haven't written any of it yet. Characters sketches and a bit of outline but no actual story so I'll work with that. Also, I'd managed to build a nice, steady writing schedule a few months back. Things were going well ... until Dad died. Then it all went to crap. So maybe Nano can kick me back into gear.

I have sunburn on the back of my neck. WTF weather? It was 30C yesterday! IT'S NOT EVEN NOVEMBER YET!!!
(Sunscreen is almost automatic for me but I forgot the back of the neck. I won't forget again. It was ridiculously hot.)
