This place has become impossible. Nothing to eat, freezing cold and now a madman on the prowl outside with eels.

oh man... 32 hours and 23 minutes until naonowrimo starts. actually, it's 24 more minutes. because i can't really start until after midnight. or can i? technically, does midnight on halloween count as Nov. 1st or Oct 31st? i do not know. i'm starting to think all my ideas suck and i am a huge failure before i begin. but it would appear, from looking at the forums, that i am not the only one.

do you think it's a coincidence that i haven't even been able to think of things to write in my blog? no. I'M FREEZING UP, PEOPLE!!

you're not freezing up. just a bit of a wind chill. it will pass. then the brilliance of words will flow from you fingers as you type away. :) as much as you might temporarily think your ideas suck, just remember, they're not that bad. you could, after all, be writing about an intergalactic princess who meets aliens with talking eyebrows (my latest idea.) hehehe

It's here! It's here! Nanowrimo is here, and you're going to kick ass, Jodi, I just know it, because, you are the keeper of the big brain, yes!

ack! no update! it's 1:19 on Nov. 2nd and I am sitting here eating some rockin' Indian food and wondering, "what's up with Jodes and Nanowrimo?" so i come here to check and no update. i hope you're remembering to have fun with it. =)

I want to know too! Okay, aside from banter around sgnmfos. I wanna see a blog update!

(No pressure, though, of course.)

awww... thanks everyone. been a bad blogger this week. i promise to have an update this evening, so that when fee gets up for her midnight ramadan binge, she'll have something to eat. and judes and marie... it takes a big brain to know one. and fee, you are right, i need to remember to have fun with it.

if my eyebrows DID talk, loon, they'd speak french. my eyebrows are very french, and high maintenance. they require montly grooming and very arched.

no pressure wicked... blogs seems easy compared to the other writing pressure, huh? :)
