hm I'm a bit too excited about this nanowrimo thing since I started writing at midnight and rattled out 1680 words in an hour and a half...I foresee burnout. Anyway, http://www.nanowrimo.org/user/238329 add if you like, since author search isn't working.

My brother and I went to the County Fair tonight...I hadn't been in years and it surprised me how small all the rides look, the ones that used to terrify me. And how trite the prize booths were! But it was still fun. We split a funnel cake...I love funnel cake. And then we rode the ferris wheel which was terrifying all over again once we got up ( Read more... )
