NaNoWriMo 2010: Day 2

I'm here again, with virtually the same dilemma, except i'm even later than yesterday. It's 5:31pm, and i have about 1000 words left to go. What's the hold up you ask? Well, didn't you know i just had to bake a chocolate cake today, and make rice porridge, and peppered steak sans the peppers. This from the woman who can count on one hand how many times she's cooked in the last two years.

i actually like cooking. Love it, to be exact. But, i havent had the time or energy to do it justice in a long long while. Then comes NaNoWriMo and suddenly i hear the call of the kitchen beckoning, enticing me away from my duties.

So, here i am. i've cooked and baked. I still need to make chocolate frosting, but that's for later. i should also eat dinner, but that's reserved for those who finish their daily writing quota.

Tomorrow, i think i should actually venture out and find a cafe or some sort of writing nook. There's a fabulous library in the south suburbs of chicago that i just love to go to. But alas, we are oceans apart. I need to find a quick and easy substitute here in doha, but i dont want to spend too much time looking for a place to write instead of just writing, as i am now...talking about writing but not really writing. Julia Cameron would call this living in my shadow.

And so now, i shall venure forth, back into my WIP.

oh, btw, the League of Extraordinary Comedians was very good. I haven't laughed so well and hard in a long time, and so, it was well worth the late night.
