Candy. There is candy everywhere in my office today.
I really shouldn�t complain, since a big basket of it came from my house (and yes, of course it�s a Longaberger basket. What else would it be?!), and I wanted it out of my living space so that I wouldn�t eat every single piece of it, but that means that all day today, every time I turn around, a Reese�s or a Kit Kat or a Baby Ruth or a York Peppermint Patty calls to me in it�s little candy voice. �Jennifer! Come eat me! Me me me!�
So far, I�ve resisted all but the �fun size� Twix bar. I have to say, though, the little inch and a half of cookie, caramel and chocolate would not be my definition of a �fun size.�
But I digress�
Today, of course, is November 1. Which means that aside from being the Boyfriend�s and my Noniversary, as I mentioned yesterday, today is the FIRST DAY OF NaNoWriMo!!!
As thousands of writers worldwide shudder and begin to type�
Yesterday, I�d decided I was insane. That it wasn�t even worth trying. That the idea appealed to me, but the reality was impossible.
This morning, I came in to some encouraging words from Chris, founder of NaNoWrimo, and an email from Selila, who has agreed to be my writing partner for the month.
I�m excited again.
Sunday is baking and writing day in my house. The Boyfriend is going to climb Mt. Cardigan with a few of his friends, which leaves me with a whole day to dedicate to cookies and my computer. This is a good thought. Perhaps I�ll just move the iMac into the kitchen and work from there!
The baking part of the weekend is for a cookie/ornament/craft exchange I�m involved in with some of the Mediarama folk. I�m sending early this year, before everything gets totally insane. At least, that�s the plan.
Oh, and a quick jaunt out of the apartment from 2:30 to 4 for tea at the Boston Harbor Hotel with Erica.
That ought to be writing-inspiring, don�t you think?
