A new month

It is November 1st, and I cannot believe how fast the year has gone by. How can it be November already, when it was June and July just moments ago? Some times, I think someone pushes the fast forward button when I ain't looking. And hey, it is my life, and therefore, really unfair that I don't get to push that button!

Beginning of November means that I also signed up to do the NaNoWriMo. (http://www.nanowrimo.org/) Which doesn't make sense at all if you are looking at it - but essentially, I signed up to write 50 k words in a month. I totally blame chloe for getting me into this. She started with a whopping 5 k - I am up to...almost 200 words. Yay me. Problem is really, that I started out, all decided to write a fantasy novel of sorts. Yeah, but when I started typing it out, somehow, it transformed into something else, and it is not really all clear on what the hell this one is. It might be a chick lit with fantasy elements...hmm. Yeah.

Either way, I have to finish all my other usual start of the month business, so I can actually sit down and do this! Mmmyeah. We'll see how it goes. Maybe I should have gone with the whole blogging thing instead.
