I'm gonna be pouding away on my NaNovel at Kharma tonight from 8-10, and will likely be joined by Urch and Kat. Any other of you kids who are interested in joining are welcome to find me.

So behind...this month needs to let up a little...

# of NaNoWords written last night:
900 (I fell asleep with a purring kitten on my lap, I couldn't help it!)

minutes wasted so far at work today:
58

temperature inside of my office:
68 degrees F (and it keeps running the AC despite the fact I've turned it off!!!)

I think I'm gonna skip DSVC today. I need to catch up and get ahead on my NaNovel ( ( Read more... )

Just realized NaNoWriMo starts in a week...suddenly I'm a little nervous. Dylan is under orders to kick my ass and make me do it, and I know several other participants, so I think I'll be okay. Still...a little scary.

Busy day at work today, as you can probably tell by my (relative) online silence. Speaking of which, back to the grind.

I think of strange hypothetical characters to put in stories ( Read more... )

I hate it when my ability to make snide comments fails me ( Read more... )

Still no improvement on the Unable-To-Amuse-Myself front. Hopefully this will pass before too long and I can get to doing all those things I said I would do before I found myself creatively blocked. My mom put it best: I have a case of the Creative Bends, and that, after being under so much pressure, I really need to give myself time to ( Read more... )

I'm in the midst of the Grandaddy of all Design Binges. Well, not at the moment obviously...I'm at work goofing off and updating my journal...but in the last 4 days, I've clocked a good 21 hours working on my portfolio (including 9 yesterday...I had to call in to work to work on my stuff). Needless to say, NaNoWriMo bit the dust in an ugly ugly ( Read more... )

Dum de dum de dum...can it be 5 o'clock already???

When I'm done here, I'm going to walk back to my apartment, grab the roommate, put the top down on the Cabrio, and go buy some yarn! Most likely silly yarn! (Do I have time to knit a scarf? Heck no! Am I gonna do it anyway? You betcha!)

My NaNovel has pretty much bitten the dust. Not that I ( Read more... )

Today at work is just irritating me. Karen (my boss) is out, and we are having more issues than normal, and some of them are ones I just don't have the authority or knowlege to resolve. Also, I am most likely going to have a bad day on Friday, or at least partially a bad day, because a mother and daughter are coming in for a tour and they were ( Read more... )

Oof. Another day, another dollar. I have 56 more minutes to do.

I wish someone would pay me to be creative and read books. Not in a graphic designer creative way. More like a sit around and write my NaNoWriMo novel and embroider and knit stuff. Especially when Knit Happens! Speaking of NaNoWriMo...
