It's Over!

In all respects, NaNoWriMo is over for me. I gave up with 25k and no will to finish the remaining 25k in two days. I am not disappointed, and I have a good start on a story I intend to continue.

With December starting on the morrow, I find that I have three categories in my poll with equal votes. Unless some magically appear before midnight, I'll just have one new list each week of December. The next poll will be for the 4th December list. The poll will end on December 15th, at which point January's poll will go up.

That being said, check back tomorrow for the new list, poll, and thought box. And, who knows, maybe something else will be new too... :)

Good night, and happy November 30th!

Happy Thanksgiving!

My wishes are kinda late, but they are sincere nonetheless. I hope you and yours all had a wonderful holiday (or just plain old good day as the case may be). I myself spent a lovely day up in the Twin Cities with my relatives. There was lots of food, drink, and merriment.

I do not, however, feel so good right now. Two times over the two previous days (once on Tuesday and once on Wednesday), I hit my head (with a distinctive crack I might add) in the same place on the hard metal frame of a papasan chair in my room. I didn't feel any different until today. My head hurts, I have a headache (and I don't get those ever, to put it in perspective), and I just feel nauseous, even though I've had food.

I very well may have a concussion, and I still have a hefty chunk of NaNoWriMo to go. I will see how I feel in the morning. I'm going to do some writing now, but my head would appreciate it if I just kind of didn't do much.

Until later, be safe!

Someone Should Be Here

With good music, beverage, and assorted snacks in abound, one would think that I'm having some form of party. Upon entering my room, the lights are pleasantly dim, a nice groove is going, and the air is jovial. I feel like there should be multiple people here, wreaking havoc in some sketchbooks, coloring books, or just reading books. Or, if that's not lively enough for you people, a couple of mad rounds of hard core Bananagrams (like, you can only spell four-letter words hard core).

Do I know how to have a good time, or what?!

Okay, so maybe that's a little strange for you. On the other hand, consider the reality; I'm the only one in my room with the snacks, beverage, and good music. And I'm writing. So, I guess I'll just have to have one mad solo writing party!

P.S. If my scanner wasn't downstairs and being poopy, I would doodle a little scribble of my avatar self partying with the caption: Wish you were here! You can imagine it instead! :)
