Nanowrimo 2010 - Day 3
Today I am entirely uninterested in writing, but I am doing it anyway. I am half way to my word quota for the day, so that's good I spose. Nanowrimo has this new thing on their site that tracks your progress which might be just what I needed to keep me motivated. I don't want it to show that I am behind schedual or that I didn't write enough on any given day. Sad and petty, but effective at this point. I am writing just to write. I am proud to say however that everything I have written has been story oriented and I have not been padding my word cound with grocery lists or song lyrics.
As for me, I am really sad about Jake deploying so soon. I did a good deal of crying today as we were talking about what I was going to do for the holidays since I will be alone. Ugh. I hate this. On the bright side, we went to eat at Molly MacPhearson's and the nice bartender lady came over and talked to us for a minute. Her husband's coming back from Iraq in 5 weeks and when we told her that Jake was leaving she said that she would give me her number and help me through the deployment. She even offered to babysit - so that's exciting.
I got my pumpkin from the pottery shop.
I haven't got a lot to say. I feel like I am in a fog. I was lucid there for a little while after the sprout got here, but this week has been rather dream-like, as though things are happening to me and I am just along for ride. Even the writing has been this way. Lame.
