I have sixteen hours. I have food. I have soda and booze. Let's see how many words I can kill before midnight. :)

Apparently, the new version of "The Twilight Zone" redid "The Monsters Are On Maple Street" with the plotline changed to be terrorists in their midsts. Well, if they're going to remake that episode, the last couple of years have been a good time to do it. (Although I liked the ending twist in the old episode better than the one in this version, but that's because ... well, it's the old "Twilight Zone" and Rod Serling was some form of deity. :))

So anyway, the good news and the bad news. The good news is, I've been writing. The bad news is, due to circumstances beyond my control, if I wanted to go see The Incredibles, I had to go see it today rather than tomorrow. (If you even want to call it bad news, because OMGWTFLOVELOVELOVE.) I didn't get to take reviewin' notes, but still ... I need a Violet icon like a desperate, needy thing. And an Edna icon, just as soon as I can come up with a caption I like. Ooo, and a Jack Jack icon of ( Spoiler )

You know, when someone gets around to screencapping that. And, well, after it's not a big spoiler anymore. :)

In other news, I brought brown hair dye as close to the color of my roots as I could manage. So, either later or tomorrow morning, I'm going to be a brunette again.

Okay, back to writing. I haven't let myself count words lately, but I know it has to be at least over 10k. *happy dance*

EDIT: Every time I put on iTunes when I write and leave it on shuffle, it inevitably plays "Paperback Writer" within the first five songs. Ha, ha, very funny. ;P

ANNOYED WRITING TYPIST OF EDIT: Damn it, my printer would run out of ink when I could really, really use it. When I was plotting The Monsters of Minooka, I printed off all the bits and pieces I had written, stuck them in the correct order in a notebook, then detailed the plot and chapters that way. And now when I want to do it again, I can't. *sulks*

MISCHIEVOUS ELECTRONIC DEVICE OF EDIT: Hey, it played "Paperback Writer" again! For crying out loud, I get it. I'm writing, okay? And I'm writing on you, so back off! *sticks out tongue at computer*

Gacked from catmoran:

1. Stop talking about politics for a moment or two.
2. Post a reasonably-sized picture in your LJ, NOT under a cut tag, of something pleasant, such as an adorable kitten, or a fluffy white cloud, or a bottle of booze. Something that has NOTHING TO DO WITH POLITICS.



(That's my mother's cat, Otis, for anybody who wasn't around to see the pic when they originally got him.)

3. Include these instructions, and share the love.

GIP!

*snerk*

Also, the Spongebob Squarepants commercial where David Hasselhoff leaps out of the ocean like a dolphin KIL ME DED.

So theoretically, if I hadn't gone to the movies today, I would have written enough for my little movie-going quota of 12,500. And hey, even with going to the movies, I got this far. *happy dance*
