How can I be so busy and still seem like I get nothing done?
I'm supposed to be starting NaNoWriMo tomorrow. National Novel Writing Month, FYI. The goal is to write 50,000 words in a month. I've been toying with the idea of doing a fantasy type story (I don't want to say book, cuz although it is called NaNOVELWriMo, you really can't do a novel in 50,000 words and the main goal it to WRITE not necessarily write PERFECTLY), but after chatting with JediJenn (Hmmm, I will have to learn how to HTML that to make it go to her page) she said that I should pick up on "Out of the Past" where I left her hanging over (OMG) 15 years ago.
Well, they don't really want you to use a work in progress, but since I haven't actually WRITTEN on the story in over a decade, I don't see how it could be a WIP. I'll just start where I left off and count the wordage from that point on...
I'll have to think about that.
MLK was having a problem. She was soooo upset because she had math homework. Tears even. She said to me: "I don't want to LEARN, I just want to KNOW."
Ahhh... out of the mouths of babes. I told her we all wanted that, but I don't think she really understands how MUCH I would like that.
Well, I think I'm going to have to force her to go to bed now. She'll have a half hour to read, then the dreaded sleep....
MLK Joke: What kind of slippers do monkey's wear? Banana Slippers! She wants that read over the announcements at school. I hope this doesn't mean that she wants to be a standup comic.
