Because I'm Also A Masochist

While I'm doing National Novel Writing Month I'm also doing National Blog Posting Month. Which means I'll post to this blog every day this month. Now don't go rolling your eyes at me. This really shouldn't be that bad because in the worst case scenario I'll just cut and paste an excerpt from that day's pages into this here blog. Cheating? Maybe.

And all this activity? Really just a way to distract myself from a bunch of other shit going on in my life right now. Although I'm sure at some point this month I'll end up writing about it one way or another. Because what else am I going to talk about?

Hiatus Now Over

Okay. I've been AWOL for well over a week now, but I'm back! I have no real ecxuse except for maybe work and writing and life and PMS and. Well. Laziness.

But, in an effort to jumpstart things here again, I'm joining in with NaBloPoMo--that's National Blog Posting Month, started by fussy.org, for those not in the know. (I toyed ever so briefly with the idea of doing the national novel writing month thingy, but, to be honest, when I write that quickly I tend to churn out crap. But a post a day for a month? No prob.)

Exciting events on the horizen for November include: a couples date (yes! this is a NY thing apparently) with our friends' cousin and her husband; a trip to visit my grandmother and crazy aunt in northeatern PA; a weeklong Thanksgiving trek to San Francisco with R and my parents to visit both our friend M (in SF proper) and my sister G (in Davis, CA); my ongoing struggles with in-progress short story X; cats aplenty!

Thanks to everyone--Wandering Coyote, Diana, Candy, Red, Martha--for stopping by in my unforgiveable absence...
