Day 3

Three days in. Well technically, two days in. It is still in the very early hours of day three. I've been up since 8:30am. Why you ask? Because of this cat.

Dany Bitch: Yes, she has her own Tumblr.

She's very cute, but very annoying. But, I guess I can thank her because now I have a head start on Day 3 of NaNoWriMo. So far my word count is: 3,325. Woo! That is pretty good, I must say. The majority of those words I wrote on Friday. The weekend is not my friend when it comes to productivity. I had two simultaneous birthday parties to go to on opposite sides of LA (Venice and Echo Park). And I resisted the temptation to drink in two party settings. It's really hard not to drink when at Bootie LA. That place almost requires drinking to get by.

Also, my phone suspiciously died/broke on me on Friday, so I had to journey to the seventh layer of hell: The Grove Apple Store, to get it fixed. Luckily, they were able to give me a new phone for free. Woo! This is about the 5th or 6th iPhone I've had replaced in the last year. I am very unlucky with phones. 

Some other crazy things happened this weekend, but I will talk about them later this week. This blog post ain't ready for that jazz this early in the morn.

Despite the drama and busy weekend plans, I still managed to somehow get in 3,325 words. I have also been simultaneously charting out each character's day-to-day activities so as I don't lose track in my story's timeline. Fun stuff! In order to finish 50,000 words by December 1st, I am supposed to type 1,667 words per day. Right now, I am above that word count. Let's hope I can stay that way. 

I guess I shall stop writing this blog and start writing my novel. 27.5 days to go!
