I have officially begun!
Nov. 2nd, 2007 12:41 amWow. I actually started writing today and I'm over (just barely) the word count. I unnaturally impressed with myself, probably also because I just know it can't last! Still, it's pretty cool that for once in my life I started out ahead of the game rather than procrastinating. I repeat - it probably won't last. But hey, I can only hope right? Also, my mom has requested that I email her what I've written each day. I thought about it, then said that was fine as long as she didn't make any comments to me about it because I wasn't going back to look at anything. No idea if that's a good idea or not, but I threatened to stop sending her pages if she misbehaved, so that should work! It will also hopefully be extra speed me along power to know she expects that email daily.
Today Starbucks brought out the red cups. I was so excited that I went right in on my way to work and bought a gingerbread latte. They are so freaking good! Nov/Dec are the only months when I actually have a problem passing Starbucks and not going in.
Last night the Halloween gig was really fun. I went over before and Anna and I dressed up. Unfortunately we couldn't find green paint, and I didn't want to be just a regular witch, so I had to forgo my ruby slippers for another year. I went with plan b - wore my creepy white victorian dress and the black wig and painted my face white with black rimmed eyes. Ta da - ghost. It worked, plus it was a much more notice-able outfit since the place was so dark. We took pics, so if I get my act together I'll post some on facebook. (Of course, I always say that!)
I've watched a little more Everwood in the past week.
I think that's all I've got. I am considering writing a bit more on my novel (heeee!) but I think I should probably just go to bed. Another day and all that. I didn't get much sleep last night since we were out late and then we all spent the night at Andy and Anna's. Everyone had to work so we all got up in the morning and had breakfast. It was fun.
Word count: 1766 (whoo-hoo!)
