I’ve written about 3400 words today. Unfortunately, the first 900 were the Wrong Words, so although I’ve written that many, only 2500 of them count. This is kind of too bad, because 3400 would put me only one day behind my self-imposed Nanowrimo (Junowrimo), but since 2500 is more than I’ve written in months, I’ll take it. Sound off!

I admit I’m taking a certain amount of glee from watching the horror of the Red Wedding unfold across my Facebook page (mostly Facebook; in other places the geek quotient is higher and more people knew what was coming).

Oh, and there are a couple of language things–the use of “fag” and “retard”, particularly–that threw me considerably. So that was a dating thing too, I suppose. I’d…
I had a lovely birthday yesterday. Friends came over for our BBQ Housecooling Party, we ate lots, I was given lovely stuff (homemade marmalade! sugar scrub bath stuff! cheese!), I got my hair cut into a cut that I’m not certain I like any better than the previous one, and probably other good stuff I can’t remember right now. :) Happy slightly belated birthday to all my birthday twins: Esmerel, Silkblade, Novella, Fahri, Marilyn, Morgan, and Superman! :)
