Fighting for the Computer

[agreenbunny.livejournal.com]

I am so behind. I'm at 6,000 words and my husband is totally sabotaging me--but not on purpose. I was counting on having weekends to catch up on my word counts, since after a day at work I'm beat M-F. Well, I didn't remember that he's taking weekend classes this term. They run Friday nights, all day Satuday, and all day Sunday. And he needs the laptop for class. Between that and his grades being due soon, he's totally monopolizing the laptop all the time I'm at home. And I can't say "Don't do your job so I can write a novel." And I really can't come in to work on the weekends without drawing attention to the fact that I'm doing personal stuff on a company-owned computer (though NOT during work hours). I was supposed to get my own desktop PC for Christmas, but it isn't in the budget right now. The local library has a 30-minute time limit per day on personal computer usage, to cut down on web surfing. ARGH!
