Wellllll. I have now made it the farthest that I have ever made it since my very first nano, I'm fairly certain. I need another 12k, and I will have beat my past record. My unreasonable goal for the day is to hit 20k, just 2k shy of the highest water mark. My reasonable goal is to hit 16k.

There's a write-in tonight at the library, so that should help. I have the day off, and I've been sitting in a very comfy chair at said library since 11.30 this morning, and went from 6k to where I am now.

\o/

If I hit 40k this year, I'm going to call it a win. Obviously I'm going to keep trying for 50k, if it's not yet Decemeber, but if at 11.59pm on the 30th I have 40k+, fuck it. That's nearly double my best record so far. No mean feat for someone with a full time job who also happens to be taking two graduate classes. (Although, honestly, I worked my tail off at the end of October to make sure I'd have as little class work to do this month as humanly possible. Still couldn't get it all, some of it was very time sensitive, but whatever. Anyway.)

My largest hurdle current comes in the form of The Big Bang Theory. A lot of people have been trying to get me to watch this, but I was very busy being demand resistant. Now it's apparently half-way through the fourth season, and jzbell was like, "kk, Shellllldooooonnnnnn." and I was like "ooooooooh. He's so pretty and bitchy and smart. Ok. Yes please." and she gave me the first two seasons. Which I've already pounded through. <333

BUT. I WILL KEEP WRITING.

Let's see what the 30th brings!

Only need to write 7.5k between today and Tuesday to catch up to my schedule.

*cough*

But! Who cares. I kept writing! That's amazing! I haven't given up quite yet! *keeps plugging away*

Also the app My Writing Nook is helping tremendously. It has a word count function and it syncs through google. WHAT MORE COULD I WANT?

Off to work now. =P

I have a schedule. I'm already behind it by 2.3k words. *sigh* well, I can try to get caught up when I get home. If I can stop playing wow with koji or doing my homework long enough to open word.

So! This would be the first year I ever went to a nanowrimo real person event. There's a lot of people here, and I kind of came late, and I really think I'm two seconds from puking out of nervousness.

Um, either nerves or the olive garden. Who can say, in these troubled times.

Jesus fuck I wish I knew someone else who did nano that I could hide behind them until my hands stopped shaking.
