What sparked this entry? Car accident last night. I was in the center lane of traffic, stopped at a light, and the light turned green and the guy in the left lane didn’t see me and started moving into my lane… and dented my side panel. And didn’t have his insurance information, so I need to get that from him. Because he accepted blame, said he didn’t see me, and therefore his insurance has to cover it so they need to be called to file the report and so they can pay it.

I am so frustrated with LIFE this month! It’s throwing things at me left and right, big things that make me not want to write anymore. And I don’t know if I can overcome my word shortage total, let alone just for Disco World. All I want is to win NaNo for my third year in a row, is that too much to ask? I think it is. I think I might have to agree to say “To hell with a real novel, I’m gonna add weird dream sequences and song lyrics and play other word count games, because otherwise I will never hit 50k.”

Last night I told Mark I’m going to finish Disco World as a 50k novel even if I don’t do it in November, but if it’s later then I don’t get the free CreateSpace book, so I don’t know…

Can I include my blog in my word count for validation since it’s some notes and thought process regarding my stories? Just entries written this month, of course. That makes me a NaNo Rebel, but if I include Cassandra for validation then I’m already a NaNo Rebel anyway, so I think it’s okay…

Yesterday I hit 17255 including Cassandra. Will update later including my blog entries in my total.
