NaNoWriMo Day #24 and random thoughts

So... I never really got back to writing after that last post. Helped my mom cut up a bunch of vegetables for tomorrow, prepped the sweet potato fries and as a reward for my efforts got to sample the unstuffed cabbage for dinner. *_* No, you can't have any. It's all mine, mine! *eg* Suffice it to say, it was delicious. I do so love my mom's unstuffed cabbage. *blissful sigh*

( Cut for me babbling about the rest of my day and for pictures. )

And last but not least...

NaNoWriMo Day 24: 36177 / 50000 words. 72% done!

Yeah, for the record, I give up on trying for a "new" 50,000. I'm just going for total, even though almost 10,000 words were written before November. If I hit the other count, great, if not, that's fine, too. ^_^

Happy Thanksgiving! and NaNoWriMo Day #25

"You were given a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say 'thank you?'" ~William A. Ward

I just wanted to take a moment to say a big "Thank you!" to all my family (none of whom read my LJ, thank G-d) and friends for being there, for loving me and for supporting me in whatever I do. I wish you a safe, happy and healthy Thanksgiving! ^_^

The table is set, the appetizers are appetizing, the turkey is stuffed and I have pointed and planned today like a mad woman. And in writing down everything that I plan to eat today, I have one thing to say to myself... Dude. Where do you put it? O_O Honestly, I feel a little sick just looking at the list. I guess that's the point. ^_^ Mayhap I shall cut some things from the list as I go.

And in other random news:

OK, seriously... Gavin named his turkey. *snerts* I die laughing: Gavin and Carla -- and does anyone else note the really impressive muscle in his right arm? *_* He's holding what looks like at least a 25 lb. turkey essentially in one hand. *boggles* Dude... just, wow.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

1:55 PM -- Damn it, why do I always get inspired right before I know I need to go somewhere? O_O 1,115 new words and the fic finally seems to be back on track. Will hopefully not be in so much of a food coma that I can't write tonight... because I intend to write like a mad fiend! I mean... it's the Claude meets the parents scene! Who wouldn't want to write that? ^_^

7:16 PM -- Desperately... fighting... food coma... wanttowrite... damn it. -.-;;; Sofull. *thud*
