NaNo time

Now that it's the 3rd of November, I feel I should write a blog about NaNoWriMo.

So far I'm on target for making it through, but just barely. I have to have a really good writing day soon and just completely pwn this story.

This story is kind of difficult, because I've been working on Universe for so long that I trying to write something else, something I know kind of sucks and doesn't have much delvopment yet, is really difficlult. I hope I can really figure it out. I've been tempted to erase and start over several times. But that's the pressure of NaNo.

I'm writng with my roommate, and she's never really sat down and written before, so it's intersting. At least this year there is a person in the room to bounce stuff off of. I kind of want to go to the write-in tomorrow, but I'm not supposed to be in Barnes and Noble, and I have class. So I'll try to figure that out.

I've felt kind of weird latley, and I don't know why. I think I'm upset with the lack of committment some people are showing in an ongoing project, and how, even though it's not the single most important thing in people's lives, they're treating it like it's not important at all. We all signed on to see it through to the end, to actually try. It sucks that I'm the only one even mildly intersted in finishing the project. I'm honestly thinking about not be bothered to do my part this week, or next week, or ever again. I'm starting to not care about it because no one else cares about it. It was my idea, my baby, I created it, and now I'm just watching it die and theres no way I can save it it.

I was sick last week and let Noelles run THES because I wasn't going to make it there, and it went smoother and they got more done than they ever had when I'm running the show. I feel like I'm not needed. Like I'm already being replaced. I don't like it. I don't want to be the person that can be replaced with a better version at any moment.

Anyways, I have to get ready to go to class, well at least try to make it to lunch with my friends. I think that's part of my thing, I really miss my friends. I mean, their right down the street, and I try to see them as much as possible, but I don't get to see them like I want, or used to.

 AND THAT IS THE END OF THE STORY

If you can think of a reason that today is awesome, let me know.

I quit my job!

My crappy ass weekend job, not this one, but I do leave here on the 21st. And I'll be very upset about it, because I kind of love this job; not a soul crushing weight jumping off my chest, like I did when Adam said to me "So that will be it then?" and I said, "Yes, I'm leaving this place." And then mini happy danced in the parking lot. There will be a bigger happy dance doing down on 22nd when I leave for good.

Today the guy I work with isn't here (sad face), so I'm kind of worried I won't have anything to do. And I forgot my book (and my Gryffindor neckless) on the coffee table. So I'm going to have to play on Google News for most of the day (Just discovered that in fact, my boss will be in safety orientation all day, so I'm left alone.).

Yesterday was a day similar to how today will end up being, and yesterday I ended up too bored to listen to music, which is horrible. Mostly because listening to music is what I do when I'm bored.

I read a news article about how if you overwrite your iPhone Operating System, drug dealers will hack your phone and all children will become crack addicts. Actually, I read and article about how Apple said that, and how ridiculous it made them sound. Apparently it will also cause the end of the world: cell towers will crumple, instant communication will cease to exist and it will be like we live in like the 80's or something, before Internet and cell phones! OH NO!!

I wish I could find the article, I should have emailed it to myself, but I didn't. It was hilarious. Considering most of the news stories these days are about people decapitating infants and murdering expedient mothers stealing their fetuses (feti?), reading one about how Apple doesn't want to you write over your iPhone OS or life as we know it will no longer exist is LOL-able.

Tonight is the opening of a weekend only improv show!! It's a battle improv, and I don't really know what that means, but it should be interesting. I think that my boss actually made need to sit and laugh at other people for a while to de-stress her. She's very stressed, and doing 3 jobs. And gets blamed when people injure themselves. Totally not her fault if parts of your body that shouldn't be anywhere near a clamp ends up in it.

I'll be sure to let you know how the improv show goes. I'm sure it will be improv with a capital G! But I also know you're DYING to find out about it!

AND THAT IS THE END OF THE STORY

today is awesome because I get 4 improv shows this week instead of 1.

I wonder if anyone else feels like this?

I feel like I'm wasting perfectly good days.

I mean I was never the run around outside and be happy about it person (Just take the 50lbs I've added since I stopped playing volleyball my junior year of high school). I mean, I like outside, its a nice place, but I'm not a hike in the woods, go play catch with friends, lets hang out at the beach type of girl.

And today it's super nice out, like fifty degrees, and slightly windy, but its April in Maine, it's not snowing and I can have my window open without freezing to death, it's nice out.

But I'm kinda worried that my outside exposure is doing to meals, and class. And I only have class two days a week, and I don't really have to eat every meal. (but then if I skip a meal, I find my self eating TGIFriday's microwavable mozzarella sticks and starbursts at midnight.)

Today my computer, whom I refer to as Ethan, decided he wasn't going to work today, so I had to de-fragment him, which is five hours I could be doing something that isn't looking out the window of my room, watching people have fun. I could, you know, take part in said fun. But instead, for fear of running into the friend that told me to "go away" before the surprise party on Thursday, I stayed in my room. I just don't want to start a fight. Which probably wouldn't be my fault, but still I don't want to cause a bigger riff in our group and make people pick sides. Mostly because I doubt too many, if any of my friends would pick my side because I walked away, and have been the one avoiding the situation entirely.

Normally, I would consider finishing a book in a day an accomplishment, but it's just so nice out that I feel lazy.

I mean, I am lazy, but I don't like thinking that I'm lazy.


I went to dinner early, because I was hungry because I went to Brunch early. But my friends came early too, so I found myself eating incredibly fast so I could take off before anyone else sat down. I know I'm being kind of a dick in this situation, but I don't want to lose my friends, or cause a big uproar on a celebratory weekend, with the engagement and all.

This blog was supposed be about how I should spend more time outside, but it seems to be more about how I'm avoiding my friends... That wasn't my plan...

It's not like I'm deathly afraid of getting skin cancer or anything, it's just that I don't do outdoor activities, and I'm friends with people that spend a good majority of their time playing video games, but I still kind of want to talk a nice walk in the woods, or just spend a day outside having fun. I just don't really have anyone to do this with.

Maybe when the Sassy Ladies come to visit for my play this weekend, we'll play tag or something for hours. I feel that would be fun. I'd enjoy that...

And that is the end of the story

Today is awesome because there were some really cute looking boys working out in the athletic center, and from my window, I have the perfect creeper vantage point. (Oh God, did I really just say that?)
