I am not hungry, I am not hungry, I am not hungry.
(But I'm still building an appetite for thanksgiving dinner which is in >2hours likely.)
Done with my nanowrimo story, completed a one shot firefly fanfic, Chapter 3 of multi-chapter firefly fanfic going very well.
Life is boring. I need a new job. |

Bwaaaah, I just made a gamble and I Don't like it!!
I haven't been particularly happy here at Nature's Classroom. The people are good, it's a job and it pays money and I have a nice room, access to the internet, albeit in a slightly awkward place (basement of office) but I just DON'T WANT TO BE HERE ANYMORE. So, I decided after a conversation with my mother last night that I will be ending my season the earlier of my two choices (not going with possible extra week til December 11th, leaving the 4th instead). Now, I'm a week out of pay and I have to find a JOB. Oh BOY. I'm gonna go back to my old favorite, Eddie Bauer on Saturday, see if they need anything for the winter/holiday season. Here's to hoping. I also applied to REI. THAT WOULD BE SO COOL TO WORK AT I WANT THE REI JOB NOW. Can haz plz?
In other news, NANOWRIMO has me at 39,026 words and I haven't started today. Guess who's going to be 80% through tonight!! *dances* I didn't believe I could write so much so early on in the month when I started... Guess I surprised myself.
Also, my old boss, Mike the grumpy one sent me an email that included TWO exclamation points that follow each other! Two! Exclamation points! I'm sooo flabbergasted. !!!
Oh I wish I could go back to Wooster and work at the post office. Talk about dream job. Well, a better job than I'll be getting this winter at least. |

| Nano and some other things. |
[Nov. 12th, 2009|09:42 am] |
1. I almost took a break from writing nano yesterday. I really wasn't feeling it. Then, at about 7:40, I was like, no. I'm writing nano, starting at 8 and going for an hour or until I reach 2K to get me to 27k. I made 27k at 8:42, take that Nanowrimo. HAHAHA.
2. I realized on sunday that my word count for IS was approximately 35,000 words. Funny that I'm reaching 15K beyond that in a month.
3. I told this to Ilana at the write in on Sunday and she completely sympathized. Did I mention that Ilana Soorenko is in the boston area? We both forgot until she found a picture of me on the nanowrimo flickr page for boston and facebook messaged me.
4. I had something else to put here... Oh, right! Gen, I blame you for my new ability to procrastinate on nanowrimo (not that I had plenty before...). Adam Baldwin IS VERY sexy in Chuck, I'll say that much. And smart bad-ass too. Kind of. He's also just weird.
5. I don't think I have anything to say beyond that I'm (hopefully) passing 30k tomorrow.
(That's 60%) |

I've written over 1500 words today. Which is all well and good. I have to find the motivation to get to 2500, though. (Only did 1500 yesterday and I want to do 2k a day) Story's going well otherwise. Finding distractions in fanfiction and watching firefly on a HUGE rear projection screen. It's one of the fucking biggest tvs I've ever seen. :) |

Nanowrimo is going pretty well-I've got 21,045 words in and am on my 5th chapter (with 18 outlined and nowhere near outlining the end). I think this story is longer than 50k words. Possibly.
Hitting halfway tomorrow should all go to plan, which is pretty exciting to be that far ahead of schedule. :)
I'm also writing here and there on a new firefly fanfic from Jayne's pov. It's freaking hard writing from his pov. I'm failing miserably. |

For those of you who are firefly fans, have you noticed the new V ads? Morena Baccarin is the lead alien woman. It's creepy as fuck since she doesn't look at all like she did as Inara. |

| Day 3 |
[Nov. 3rd, 2009|12:36 pm] |
In which Emily has to get up at 5am, do breakfast prep, serve breakfast, do lunch prep and serve lunch before finally getting a shower. Then, after that, she has to go to the office, check her email, her lj and read some fanfiction before finally realizing she has to get her word count up to 10,000 today so as she won't be screwed later on when nanowrimo is kicking her in the ass.
...Right, must get on the writing thing. |

I had a dream two nights ago. Mentioned it to one of the guys at work and he said "that's a nightmare, not a dream" It's funny, because I hadn't labelled it as a nightmare. I'm still not thinking of it as a nightmare, actually.
But basically, the nightmarish part was that somehow, my pinky finger on my left hand was broken somehow. (not necessarily broken bone) Then I decided to cut it off with one of those huge knives. So I cut it off, it bled for all of a millisecond and the next thing I know, I'm in an upscale consignment shop. With a healed hand and the pinky healed over and in my pocket. Yes, the pinky, no bone/guts showing, like skin grew spontaneously on it's own.
Today, I went to a high end consignment shop in the mall near home. Interesting...

I realized driving back to work yesterday how long it's been since I've seen you all. I miss you!! It's sad I'm so far away, so it's rather difficult to just pick up and come visit. :-\
Anyways, I went to the Meet & Greet for Nanowrimo Boston yesterday and had a blast. Saw a friend from high school that I haven't seen since high school. We'll be hanging out a bit, so that's great! Also met some great people besides her. :) I'm excited for the write-ins at least. I also feel obligated to reach 50K because my mom fully believes I will.
Nothing much in my life has happened besides that. I got this huge 'parfait' thingy for my birthday from my coworkers. It's probably one of the more ridiculous things I've ever gotten for my birthday. Besides the can of oatmeal that looked kind of like a paint can. |

Have I ever mentioned to any of you that soemtimes, when I'm listening to music, I imagine it as marching band music?
Also, Sarah, I thought of you today-my boss plays all this dance/R&B music and I really think you'd like it.
Work's going well. B-day's on friday and I'm going home on Saturday/Sunday. |

I actually think I'd do it. I've thought about it before. I think I wouldn't mind-especially if I was able to talk to the child in the future. |

I like how Scorpio describes me, though most of the day to day horoscopes don't describe how my day is going. Daily Single Love on astrology.com has it for today though. :-P
I like hearing about people describe how a lot of people generally are, if they're in a particular sign. I find it really interesting... |

So, I helped participate in the Underground Railroad Simulation the place I work at hosts. I was at the 'safehouse' the kids come through, playing the part of the Deputy. The safe house was the basement of the office and the kids come through the outside door. Kara (the sheriff) & I would hide in the stairwell & then stomp down the stairs & bang on the doors just as the kids were all in the door but not all hidden yet. It was so much fun to stomp around bang on things and yell random ass crap. DeeDee Kara & I would try to say a particular word or phrase as much as possible. The first one was pickle jar, the third was crawfish and the fifth was moist. You can imagine what kind of phrases we had to come up with that were relevantish to 1850s life. We talked a lot about crawfish hunting and storing them under the tables covered with black cloth where the students were. It was really really funny. There were times where there were silences because it was hard for us to stop laughing silently. I suppose though, that you had to be there...
Anyways, life's going alright. I'm jealous that all of you are going to homecoming this weekend. I wish I could go, but no way it's happening. Miss all of you, have a GREAT TIME THIS WEEKEND!!!! |

Went out for drinks with a guy I met on a certain dating website. We had chemistry, he's very sweet...but he's too short for me. As in, I'm taller and I can't handle that. I somehow always prefer being the shorter of the two and it was just too awkward being the taller one. Plus, he's apparently starting to bald-which obviously his pictures don't show. :-P
Is it wrong to be so picky about appearances even I like how we get along? I mean, for the most part. I just couldn't stop thinking about the height difference and, well, this other guy kept popping into my head. Stupid James. STUPID James having a ltr. hmph. (Most of you don't know him though 2 may be able to guess at who I'm talking about) I don't know. I've been rather quietly hung up on him for about 2 years now and I'm pretty sure he's attracted to me but likes the relationship he's in. I do know I'm prettier, which I suppose isn't saying much.
...I know this is such an atypical post for me, but I needed to get it out.
Anyways, I'm going back to Nature's classroom today w/Nora so that'll be fun. Going to make Feta & rosemary bread tonight for the potluck.
:-D |
