The new NaNo sucks and is completely fucked up and confusing. Got 1667 words in yet it says I’ll finish on December 10th, my writing speed is only 1 word a minute, and I’ve only written 1243 words and still need 1667. WTF? So I decided to hell with NaNo. I once heard that it’s best to make a story only as long as you need to tell the story you want to tell, and that’s what I’m going to do. Going to try to keep each chapter around 1000-1500 words, but however many words and chapters it comes to in the end is what it comes to. Really don’t think I can stretch this idea to 50k words anyway unless I get more ideas along the way for the story I’m doing.

Just hours after the release of Renting Ginny, there was a sale in the UK! I personally feel it’s one of my best stories, and we’re usually our own worst critics.

Last night was surprisingly quiet, and so far it’s not too bad tonight either. They finished with the tree in the common area. No need to get excited over it, though. It’ll just be a matter of days before someone breaks out another project I’ll have to listen to. The only question will be whether or not it’s a resident or the park and how many days I’ll have to deal with it.

Went to Sam’s after he got out of work and chose eyeglass frames for my first pair of trifocals. They’re a little hard to describe but they’re mostly clear and round and the nose pads are part of the frame itself which I prefer. They have some shots of gold in them, and between the transitions and other things added to it, it came to $200 instead of the $250 we expected it to come to. We’re Plus Club members, so that gave us more of a break.

After we got the glasses taken care of, we grabbed a few things and he used the self-checkout app he usually uses. We mostly got produce, and while it may not be that healthy since it’s a little greasy and battered, I decided to try Haddock Bites and they’re really good.

On Amazon, we ordered microwave rice, egg and pasta cookers, nail polish remover pads, and a plush hideaway for the pigs. I’m hoping the polish remover pads will not only work well but be healthier for my nails. Every time I dip my fingers in the jar with the sponge with filthy nail polish remover in it, I realize it may be what’s causing the discoloration.
