I didn't work on the novel yesterday. I was in conference and class until 5:30. I hoped I'd write last night and I did but it was something else. An assignment from my professor to write the world's worst bed time story in 325 words or less. I have an 8 year old boy who lives in an iron lung and is tormented by lizards.

Today is quickly slipping away from me and I have been reading the NY Times and searching for people I was friends with in middle school. Oy vey. (Recently I proved my excessive non-Jewishness by exclaiming 'Oy Gestalt' David just looked at me like I was a talking rhodenderon.)

So I still have a measley 13,961 words and I hope to make it to 15,000 today. Hi Ho Silver! Away! (That sounds sufficiently energetic doesn't it? Now where is my damn coffee.)

since monday:

13,961 / 20,000 (69.8%)

but now:

15,018 / 20,000 (75.1%)
