Only at 26,574 words and I have to go to work. D: This is pretty much what happens when you start falling behind on Day 7 and then the holidays strike and you're frantically cleaning the week before hosting your mother for twelve days and your brother for four. -___-; This is not my attempt at an excuse, mind, because it was still totally doable as I knew this was going to happen so I was trying to get ahead early on . . . just didn't manage it. My own fault.

On the other hand, I wrote 4000+ words last night, so I'm finally hitting my stride again? And as I'm rusty as all hell, any words are better than nothing even if I'm writing an extremely terrible book right now. Extremely terrible.

And this is, I believe, the farthest I've ever gotten in NaNoWriMo, so there's that at least. I really wanted to win this year, but I'm definitely going to make it next year.

Gonna do my best to at least break 30,000 by midnight tonight.

Finally caught up on the Nano word count! But I am still behind because I need to finish in half the time (due to Mom coming and staying with me for the latter half of the month). D:

I am also having problems finding the plot so I've just been writing around. The upside? The ending is done already. >_____< But unlike my usual method of writing, I have not even touched the beginning. Nor have I figured out everyone's names yet, so I have just been using placeholders. Ahahahaha, FAIL.

Due to the fact that I am so out of practice, roughly 20% of my text is composed of "said" and another 10% is the word "completely." WHHHHHY? ;_______;

I also haven't done any of the errands I need to do at home. AND I forgot to eat (like, at all) yesterday. UGGGGH.

AT LEAST WE GOT AN HOUR BACK THIS WEEKEND! Now to go waste it!
