MissyP89 Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 Every anniversary we have is a big one, when you're us. I'll get it done...but I'm so tired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philothea Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I just switched my desktop wallpaper from the "remember to pray the election novena" one to a NaNoWriMo calendar... ...except I accidentally selected the one for reaching 100k by the end of the month. I saw "13,334" for today and almost cried! Whew, found the one that reads "6,668." Much better! So far 7,119 words of aliens mostly thinking about themselves using fancy vocabulary. Yep, totally not going to make anyone read this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"What?" "I wanted to reply to your post that I know with 'Of course I know. I'm omniscient!'" "But then PM would call you a heretic..."[/quote] I love how we (a collective we) use PM smilies in phone conversations.

MissyP89 Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 I have finished a sentence with verbal emoticons. "I think I lost it. Mellow." Wait until you start doing verbal signs of affection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philothea Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Argh. I started out the day with a horrible dizzy spell that lasted for a few hours. Once I finally recovered I used up the rest of the day arguing with people. (Mostly not here, though there was some of that too.) I feel all unsettled and weird. Also, I want potato chips. You know what this all means. (PMS! ) If my usual pattern holds, I will start feeling okay about 30 minutes before it's time to go to bed. Better get ready to write fast, then...

BG45 Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 No clue as to my wordcount, but I've reached the pivotal moment of chapter one. This is the moment when refugees are slaughtered on suspicion of carrying plague, and a journalist is crying out that the United States does not do such things; to which an equally upset minder assigned to him remarks that the United States died in the fires of "The Event".

MissyP89 Posted November 6, 2008 Author Share Posted November 6, 2008 I didn't write yesterday because I was exhausted and doing homework. While my boy is at RCIA, I'm going to write. Thankfully, I was ahead, so skipping a day didn't hurt me. The weekend is here, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
