In a few hours will be National Novel Writing Month or Nanowrimo. Therefore like the thousands (possibly millions of others) I'm going to make myself write a novel. Yes, me. A novel. The thing is you write 50,000 words by the end of November. Piece of cake right? Not really. But I'm going to do it. You don't go back to edit, you just keep going until you reach your limit. Its quantity not quality. Reason is just to get you writing a novel! To just do it, not to worry about what it's like. December is the revision, editing month.

And there's a nice bonus. Get 50,000 words out, verify it with the Nano site, and they will give you a code with this one publisher to actually get -your- book bound. One copy, your own, to say you did it. You can use the code after you've edited your heart out, it will last months. But think of it, your own copy!

Your story can be fanfiction, original, anything but copying (obviously and that's no fun anyway)! Have a favorite couple? Favorite game? Write about it! This month is to have fun, get ideas down on paper, do it! Don't put it off and wish you did it. DO IT.

So I'm on my new freakin' sweet computer that a friend of mine put together for me. It runs so smoothly, I can't get over how pretty it is. I have Boromir for my background (big surprise) and I decided a while back that is shall be known as Hades. Because Hades to me was one of the coolest gods. Thinking of putting a white hand print on the side, and/or drawing something on it. Not sure what though.

When I get this baby back home and I get Total War: The Third Age uploaded, I am taking over Middle Earth as Isengard. Sure they suck against calvary but the Uruk-hai and orcs get bigger units than the rest of the world. If I can take the Silvan Elves' land and work on Rohan I should be fine. Oh the world shall be mine, MWAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAH. I think I'm going to work on pictures to go with it. Hell been thinking of a write up for it. Yet another friend of mine does that it with Fallout and Skyanthas with... oh god what was that game. Something similar to Medeval. Crap what was it? And I think some darker pictures would do just fine. Much much darker.

In the same spot I'm always in it seems. Jobless. *Sigh* What does it take to get a simple job I think I'm capable of? Bah, oh well. Fate will eventually deem me worth of her attention, it seems she's smile on a friend of mine. *Fingers crossed*

So I come to my problem. Sketcher's funk. Can you believe it? I've come to a point where every single sketch drives me up the wall (which isn't far from normal if you ask most who know me >> ) but now I can't even finish a pic because nothing will look half of what I want it to. BUT I'm going to take Ayleid's advise on. Teach myself, or in this case reteach myself. I did so growing up but seem to have fallen from grace a bit, and now I'm completely out of practice.

Sure I wasn't up to much standards to begin with but at least I could get something out. So while I'm jobless and BORED OUT OF MY WITS from lack of computer, I shall be working on that. Drawing always helped me before and it shall aid me now.

So while I bask in the awesomeness of my plan I play Medieval 2: The Third Age. Sweet game I tell you, especially for Lord of the Rings fans. In my boredom I've been reading the trilogy and am falling for it. So taking over the world as either Mordor or Isengard makes my day because I have something with the evil guys VS the good ones. Except Boromir, MAN do I <3 Boromir. ^_^

Going back to World of WarCraft when I can, which is sweet. Get to see everyone again. Lame because of all the stuff I hear (lorewise) for the new expansion. *Goes on bitching about whiny Garrosh McEmopants Hellscreams, and Gary Stu sons like Med'an I-can-do-everythingpants* But graphics/gamewise it looks cool.

Hmmm... I was gonna say something else.... what was it... hm. Oh well. And if your reading- HHHHHIIIIIII JEZ! Tell everyone I miss y'all!!!

Peace!

Its official, I'm a walking curse. I'm the epitome of Murphy's Law of what can go wrong will go wrong. Because it never fails that something important screws up in my life. The most recent development that happened just yesterday? I lost an note book yesterday that had important things such as passwords and crap. How so? I didn't realize what book it was and wrote a god damned grocery list in it, and probably left it at the store. Drive to the story and no one's seen it.

A friend of mine apparently tossed my name out in an argument. I need to speak with him to find out if its true. Waiting for some shit to hit the fan with that one.

If its not one fucking thing its another. There is no fucking bright side, only shades of the black, bad side.

I can't wait to go back to Washington but something tells me I'm going to just fuck up something over there. I want sleep.

So a friend of mine has a father in the hospital, a man who has been a third father to me (I've two best friends dear to me, and so I've grown up with their parents making them mine as well). He'll be having surgery probably within a day or so, and will be losing his big toe on the right foot. It may seem a small deal but walking without one can take a while to get used to, add this to major back pain, tremors, and such, walking will hard.

He also is septic which basically means bacteria in the blood. Which is bad. So yeah... good gods if its not one person around me in the hospital its another. Ever had one of those days where you look up and go 'why me'? Yup, sometimes I swear with all the shitty things that have happened to others for all these years I'm beginning to wonder if I'm a walking curse.

I mean I wouldn't be surprised if I was, but hey.

Wanted to thank all you awesome Deviant artists who help me get through the day, giving me a smile at or laugh about. Y'all are life savers sometimes. No matter what your art may be of, you help more than you know. ::Hugs::
