Small victories, small annoyances

So I bet all two of you thought that I had given up already. Ha! I did not! I have been writing. Albeit a sentence here, two sentences there. At the bus stop, on the bus, at the transit center, sometimes even sitting at home. It adds up. I have discovered one of those little things that writers don't really think about when setting off on the journey to produce a 300+ page piece of literary genius. When I think of my story I see all of the main events, the big action scenes, the turning points, and so on and so forth. The difficult part that I have discovered so far is this: How the heck do I get my characters from big important event A to big important event B without boring the readers to death with endless pointless minutia. The solution: write pointless minutia until I figure something out later (It will work itself out in the editing process). So, writing has been kind of boring lately (But I AM doing it). What is it that they say? Writing is 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999 percent perspiration? and 0.000000000(well you get the point)1 inspiration? Oh yeah, the pointy system is out. It's just depressing. I will figure out some other way to be accountable to myself. Quote of the week: (From my favorite poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost
"The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
and miles to go before I sleep,
and miles to go before I sleep."
Anyone have a suggestion to help me with my "inbeteweenbigeventsisalongstreamofboringnothingness" conundrum?
I'm all ears..err...eyes...unless you send me an audio or video message.
Until next time,
