Going home now. The drive back should give me the break I need to freshen up (well, that and a chocolate Quik). Then it’s butt-to-the-chair time; Grey’s Anatomy is on tonight and I want to watch the episode without feeling McGuilty.

Just 2000 more to go!

No more coffee for me. I’m a little too wired as it is and that impairs my ability to think straight.

I’m hoping the boss leaves for the afternoon as he threatened he would so I can have some writing time. (And if you are wondering why I’m writing here and not my novel, it’s a lot easier to sneak a small browser window than a full-page Word doc.)

And now, a call to action:
If you participated in NaNoWriMo, please seriously consider donating or buying something. NaNo is a non-profit organization and not only do they need to cover their expenses (the website alone is not cheap), they also do great humanitarian work, building libraries in underdeveloped areas of the world, for example. I donated for myself and on behalf of my wife as well.

Even if it’s just $10, donate. You’ll feel good, help this great organization, and get a cool “NaNoWriMo 2006 Supporter” graphic, like the one you can see on the right-hand sidebar or below.

Head over to the NaNoWriMo Donation & Store Center and donate today!

Okay, back to writing.

Ok, exactly 12 hours to the end of November and NaNoWriMo. I have 3000 words to go to make 50,000 exactly, but I intend to write a little more to give me some padding.

My friend today? Coffee, lots and lots of coffee.

I am SO tired. But I WILL make it.

Let the countdown begin.
