Wanna go home.
But Cadewalker has told me that I need to post before Stammtisch tonight. So here goes.
I didn't reach 50,000 words, or even 20,000, but I still feel very accomplished. A ginormous round of applause to all of my friends who reached the mark and for those who signed up in the first place. I'm definitely going to do it again next year. My story's tone wasn't as dark as I'd hoped it would be. It started that way and then I realized that my MC was definitely getting away with too much and I needed to be harder on her. So I will begin again. My plot needs to be tighter too.
Thanksgiving break was a revelation. I realized that I loved my family, but didn't particularly like them. My dad is the only one who didn't manage to piss me off in one capaicity or another the entire time. He wants to me come all the way down to Boringville, CO so he can work on my car for a week. I can barely stand being in the place for a day. If I ever receive my own personal hell, it will be entrapment in my hometown.
My sister moved her wedding date to early July and got pissed at me when I told her that I would most likely be in Germany then. I'm not even her maid of honor, which irked me more than a little. I don't think she has a right to get all angsty over my having a life that orbits outside of hers. I don't really approve of the match anyway. Neither of them are the ONE for the other. If that made any sense whatsoever. Anyway, if I'm not going to be in Germany, I'll be on my way back from Belize. She'll just have to live with it.
I've been thinking a lot about my being single lately (maybe because my sister is going to get married). My friend Tiffany and I bemoan the fact that we don't have a nice warm guy to snuggle with, but at the same time we're both very independent women. We need a guy who's flexible, who won't mind a globe-trotting girlfriend. I think we expect too much and that's a big reason why we're single. Neither of us wants to settle just yet. So maybe I just need to wait till I'm back in Britain. I'll most likely stay there for at least two years. I'll have time to get into something more than casual and I'll have the accents to boot. Yeah.
I went to the Village Vidiot yesterday and raided their anime section. However, I had forgotten that I had my first Tuesday night shift till nine that night. Tonight is Stammtisch. Dammit. I have 6 discs at home and I believe they're due tonight before 8. No way I'm going to get them watched. Maybe I'll call. So if I'm late tonight or don't even show up, it's probably cuz I'm home watching shows.
