sometimes she does things she can’t understand

I’ve just signed up for NaNoWriMo. I have no idea why I’ve done this. If I’ve gotten everything done by November 1, I should be signed up for NoMoWriMoEVAH and should lie under the bed with a cold compress on my head for a month. Yeah, but what the hell, right? Right?

not feelin’ the love

Totally not feeling the love this morning. Don’t wanna write. Suspect this mostly has to do with being disappointed in myself for not getting up to go swim (which became even more disappointing when I discovered that instead of absolutely pissing rain as I expected it to be, it’s *gorgeous* out).

Apparently the entire point of this posting is for the wordcount, since I can’t think of anything else to say. miles to Isengard: 297.5 ytd wordcount: 325,100

The fucking little yap dog just *bit* me. Jesus *Christ*. I went out for a walk without Chanti this evening and the stupid goddamned little dog came charging out, and I figured there wasn’t any reason to yell it off, because I figured its big deal was the 80 pound dog.
