337 words. To my amazement, I actually started. And already, I find myself fighting the urge to scream, "No! This sucks like...suck! Delete! Delete!" That's going to be my greatest NaNoWriMo challenge: Not worrying about fixing every bad line until I get to the editing stage (i.e. sometime after November).

That said, although my word count is utterly miniscule, I need to put this away for now because I am rapidly reverting to my pumpkin-state. (No comments from the peanut gallery on that, and you know who you are.) Back to work in the morning.

For those who are keeping score, the first word is "My."

As for [livejournal.com profile] rafaela's birthday, it was very, very grand. We mostly stayed at home during the day, grazing on donut holes and spending time online. Then came dinner at Little India with [livejournal.com profile] botia and [livejournal.com profile] icarusfallen8 and [livejournal.com profile] lbitw and [livejournal.com profile] jenphalian, at which we all ate and drank ourselves sick and waxed vulgar and had a groovy time of it all. The gelato place that was supposed to have been our dessert destination was closed, the heartless bastards, so we headed to Uncommon Grounds and snarfed pastries and ogled the cute people and waxed vulgar again. Anna made off with lots of music and lots of Cowboy Bebop and a bitchin' T-shirt that I am so going to borrow form her when she's not looking and our very own copy of Killer Bunnies, so I think she did quite well.

And now, my regularly scheduled coma. *thunk*

Believe me. Fighting away Teh Demon of Teh SUK is a continual battle for me. You're not alone. :)

There's this little man who lives inside everyone's head who does nothing more than sit around saying "this isn't good enough." If you're going to write, you have to cock-punch him and leave him curled up in the corner.

Coincidentally, a group of my friends got together and gave it to me for my birthday a few years ago. :) [livejournal.com profile] macpeaircin and I DEVOURED it. You two will enjoy it!
