Yeah, I peeked into the TWoP AI recap. Glutton for punishment, me.

I have an issue with Lady Antebellum in which their name is really offensive. They seem like nice people, and I've been told I wouldn't hate their music, but: Lady Antebellum? Are you kidding me?

... fuck, did Jacob and I just sort of agree on something? Yuck.

Seriously, though, the first time I heard that band's name, I made the face in my icon. And now every time I hear that song -- which I do kind of like -- on the radio, I change the station.

I ... really don't get country music. Or country musicians, anyway.

I think I may need a bit of a pep talk.

I decided to go straight to bed instead of writing last night, which probably sounds like a bad idea, but I think I was tired enough to warrant it. That leaves me with two hours to work with this morning -- although admittedly I still haven't taken a shower or eaten breakfast -- and then from the moment I walk in the door tonight at eight. I'm going to try to pull an all-nighter tonight, but we'll see how it goes.

Really, at this point, I only need another seven thousand words. If I can crack 14k by the time I get home from work tonight between this morning and what I can get done on breaks at work, that'll leave me with six thousand words to write in twenty-eight hours. That's something like 215 words an hour. I can TOTALLY do that. (Although I don't plan on it ... I'm hoping to be done by tomorrow night, if not late afternoon.)

But, yes, a pep talk. Or maybe I'll just watch this over and over again:

To me it has more of a Faulknerian, ironic ring to it. In any case, compared to shit like the middle-class housing development in Loganville, GA called "Tara Estates," which I find horrifying on several levels, "Lady Antebellum" seems relatively benign.
