Another one bites the dust.
So, yeah, I think I'm skipping the Rally.
It's mostly a matter of time management. Last weekend, Wegmans wanted me to come in and do training, and I went out with my best friend for her birthday, which wasted a day. This weekend, my day job has me coming in for more training, which I could theoretically do during normal business hours but since it's overtime this way I can't turn it down. That leaves the rest of the weekend for me to rest and try to get over this cold, because I'll be damned if it carries over into next week. I'm working both jobs all week next week, although I'm scheduled to leave early on Friday just in case I was going to the rally, and I took Friday and Saturday off from Wegmans.
If I did go to the rally, that would basically only leave next Sunday for me to plot for NaNo. I currently have no title, two characters, and a very vague idea of something involving zombies (maybe). I don't trust myself to be able to plot the whole thing from top to bottom in one day, and I'd rather get it done before I have to start writing to make it that much easier for myself. And the Rally is the one thing I can give up to make time.
Do I want to go to the Rally? Yeah, but I want to win NaNo this year even more than that. And I'm okay with missing the Rally if it means I might win for a change, or even if it just helps me start writing again.
... so if it November first yet? No? How about now? Awww. *pouts*
