8350…a nice clean number divisble evenly by two?

Posted by Stacey on Sunday Nov 11, 2007 Under Nanowrimo

Well, I’m at 8350 as of Midnight 11/10. Tim had two gigs tonight so I went to Harbucks after he left around 7pm. I only planned to be there for two hours and was going to leave at 9 but then I got on a roll and lost track of time. Ash & Ashley gave me the heads up at 10:50 that they’d be closing shop in 10 minutes. Where did all the time go? wow. But then I added up the word count and it’s just up to a measley 8350. Nathaniel just started writing today or yesterday and already he’s at 5,000. I’m too scared to look at Sam’s word count- I’m sure she’s at like 50,000 as of yesterday and I know for sure that Christy’s at 29,000. I’m just way too OCD, I’m still catching myself editing as I go. That’s me in the corner, that’s me in the spot. light. losin’ my effin’ word count… heh heh. ;) I’m starting to regret not finding out sooner about the National Blogging Contest that the Misplaced Misfit hipped me to yesterday- I might have had better luck with that! haha

The upside to this evening was that Starbuck the Frog was hanging out with me at the same window again only it was so chilly out that his/her poor little legs were tucked tight under his/her body, looking kinda like a nesting chicken. I was glad to see that ol’ Starbuck had gained a little weight since the last time I saw him/her a few days ago. Guess the bug catching thing next to the bright window is working out. I would have taken a picture but was too busy writing.

BUT, I wasn’t too busy to take a break later and look at KK+’s newly posted photos tonight. He posted new pictures he shot at a fashion show in China. I really enjoy looking at his art- he’s a fantastic photograhper. This picture (below) was one of my favorites. Doesn’t this dress look like shaved ginger or ribbon candy??? I love how he caught the movement too- that dress just shimmers and flutters around her legs. God, I’m sure it is must be like a $15,000+ If you go to the set, you can click on that image for an even larger size with more detail. Please do- it’s so cool.

    I could *never* do NaNoWriMo – not in a million years! At least you’re attempting it – blogging’s easy in comparison. The only thing that hinks me up are the work hours I currently have, and my blogging has suffered as a result. I barely have to post anything even remotely interesting.

    Just for the record, there’s a screenwriting one, too, that takes place in June (http://www.scriptfrenzy.org/). I was going to do it this year since that’s typically what I write, but I had my head so far up my ex’s butt, I never got around to it.

    There’s always next year. :-)

    Good luck with the word count!
