Nanowrimo Day 18
So some really big jerk or bored teenager has broken into my storage unit in my apartment. They smashed one of the old cameras I bought a garage sale, but left the skis that could be easily sold on eBay (which is kind of what I plan to do with them once I figure out how to get my hands on a box big enough to ship them). So...Happy Holidays, I guess.
Even though I stayed up late watching episodes of the The Colbert Report, I was out of bed at my normal time, which gave me time to edit a problematic scene before I headed to a write-in. I have discovered how much fun it is to write Natasha hitting things (and getting hit) while Jane figures out SCIENCE at speeds too fast for speech.
Our Sunday write-ins take place at a really neat Bread Co. restaurant. It’s a co-op, which means you pay as much for your food as you want. It’s always bustling and we’re regular fixtures there in November, which means the people that work there come over and talk to us (sometimes this can be a drawback because I had one worker randomly engage me in a conversation about Sturm and Drang and impressionism (I always thought S&D had to do with expressionism, but it turns out neither of us were right) while I was in the middle of an action scene). Today, one of the workers gave us the day old cookies they were going to throw out, so I’m currently nomming on cookies while I blog.
Also, just tallied my Secret Santa word count: 16,713 words. Good news! I’m halfway done! It’s so not going to fit into one post! Hope the mods are okay with that.
On Friday, I discovered a Greek mix artist, Robin Skouteris. I have had The Gang Bang Theory on replay through this entire chapter because it’s so perfect for this story.
Which should worry some people, I think.

However having property broken into is not awesome. I hope those hooligans get their comuppence soon. Also on a somber note, how's the pup doing?

As far as I know, Joey's doing well. If he hadn't eaten, my sister would have called me, I think. :)
