Yeah. The first time in forever that I get the actual creative push to write is when I'm running late for work. I'm a little later now, but I think I've got at least the framework down.

(And I comfort myself thinking "Well, it's a new story so I'd probably get about two thirds of the way through and then abandon it in the graveyard of unfinished words".)
