I got really nice glasses. I really like my glasses. I really, really like my glasses.

Harry Potter Meets Metal is quite possibly my perfect novelling song.


For some reason, my YouTube playlist for NaNoWriMo also includes Nyan Cat. I don't get it either. It's like my brain only writes well to music that is kind of crappy.


How is NaNoWriMo going, you ask? Erm. Not so well.




Those are my lovely (or not so lovely) word count stats. I will be catching up quite quickly, hopefully.
Time to go write, nurse my wrestling bruises, program, and write some more.


Side comment: I googled "girls wrestling" to see if I could find any photos to illustrate my point, because apparently I'm really stupid. Suffice to say that I am glad that I have my safesearch on.


Regular posting should resume after November, or when I get a new laptop, or when school stops being a pain in the arse.


Best of luck to anybody else NaNoing!


Byeeee.

P.S. I lost my USB key. I had a dream that I found it again and then woke up and almost cried. 
Please, please, please back up your files regularly. This goes to everyone. I lost 6000 words of my NaNoWriMo book, all of my Java programming from school, numerous photos, and tons of my writing. 
Take this as a cautionary tale, and back up dem serial buses, b*tches
WHY DO MY ATTEMPTS AT BEING COOL KEEP FAILING?!

  4. Awwww, I lose stuff all the time. Technology makes it too easy to lose a LOT of stuff inside such a small object, doesn't it?

    Keep going with NaNo - a couple of blow out days and you're right back on track!

  5. flyergirl: I read your article on SL about losing the 3000, it still sounded pretty painful. I hope that you're all caught up.

    Ash: You write a book. In a month. and stuff. Google?

    poopstm: teehee.

    Live Out Loud: Oh, thank you! I'm working on that blowout thing. :P

  6. Oh wow! Good luck on NaNoWriMo, hope you win. That kind of thing is way too ambitious for me. I settle for trying to finish the stuff I start. ACCOMPLISHMENT.

  7. Good luck with NaNo, and don't kill yourself. And also, I live by dropbox. My files are anywhere I need them (stored on a secure server), with no chance of losing them. Plus it's free. Worth checking out for backing up your stuff. I've been using it for years now.

You should write something in that little box there.
