I am stuck

So here I am, kids are quiet, nothing going on and I remember i have a truly awesome story in the works. So I open up my word processor, I open the file and.....nothing. Where the fuck was I going with this?

I've read over it several times, it's brought me to tears (believe it or not, I write well)...no ding. I've read it out loud, I've bugged my husband 200 miles away (please say I told you the gist of this)...no ding.

I even know the basic idea where I was going. I mean, I was going to a certain end...but what happened to the rest of it? I know I had a truly raging idea going because I remember jumping up from the couch and hauling ass over to my computer and typing madly for 3 hours....


It's good..I know it's good....shouldn't it be good enough to take somewhere? Even if it wasn't where I was going to start with?

My conclusion: don't go to sleep.
