There is no better picture to show my musical obsession without turning on the MP3 player (battery is mostly dead, too lazy to charge, ):

Less than 2K

Sarah — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 01:12:08 +0000

I still have to write more than 1667 words a day, but I have to write less than 2K to reach the 25K goal by 11:59CDT on Friday.

Last night, I struggled. For the first time, I really struggled with my novel. I pushed on, and completed what I needed to, but goodness, it was HARD. And it is going to show in the writing. But, I don’t care. I am not going to fix it now. I will not fix it now.

But I will continue to write. I will reach my 50K by November 30th. I’m in this far. Nothing is going to stop me now!

Setting Lofty Goals

Sarah — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 15:41:01 +0000

Okay, I’m already 369 words ahead of the minimum writing goal for today of 16667. I’m setting the goal for myself to have a total of 25K words by the end of Friday. That would mean, literally, writing 7964 words in a little under four days. That would be writing 1991 words a day. That, I’m pretty sure I can do. I’m actually getting into my story, and I’m loving it. Plus, I have people going “can I read, can I read, can I read” constantly, so that really is helping keep me on track.

I am noticing though that I write more when I’m on a time crunch. Meaning, I have to write during commercials of my favorite shows. Otherwise, I can’t force myself to do it. I need to work on that. If I really want to become a professional writer, I need to not just float on the current way that I am. I need to push myself harder.

For now, though, I have a few other commitments I need to work on. Ciao!

Old lady Things

Sarah — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 23:15:28 +0000

Things I think I might have to buy when I get “old”:
1. eye creams. Time to start researching the best eye cream.
2. granny panties. Oh wait, already own some of those.
3. support hose. That just sounds so funny!
4. false teeth cleaner. I don’t care, I’m gonna end up losing my teeth. My whole family has, .
5. a life. Oh wait, I’m supposed to have that now, and lose that when I get old, right? Well, my FIL seems to have gained one now, so maybe I will later too, .

Weird … but cool

Sarah — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 23:01:05 +0000

I’ve seen commercials for those walk in tubs, and man, they look weird but cool. You know? I understand they’re for those who have difficulties or whatever but I wouldn’t mind having one for myself. That could be why I’m wanting to hook myself up, when we finally get our own house, with a walk in shower / bathtub combo bathroom. Then again, I want a jacuzzi type bathtub, so a walk in shower might be a smart idea.

Wrinkles

Sarah — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 22:51:45 +0000

My mom, though she doesn’t like to admit it, is getting up there in age. I’m not calling her old, because to call her old would be calling me old. She’s only sixteen years older than me, so, yeah, not old, . Sadly, though, the woman is starting to develop some major wrinkles. So, in her honor, I’m on the hunt for wrinkle cream reviews. .

Honestly, though, any suggestions for something that would be good for a woman who doesn’t use too many products, and practically lives on horseback when she can?

Dry Skin

Sarah — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 22:43:30 +0000

I’m on the hunt for some acne treatment reviews for dry skin. My skin gets so dry that the oils overwhelm my face trying to counteract the dryness. It really sucks. I’m twenty-seven-years-old, and I have the skin of a twelve-year-old boy.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to combat it? Preferably something cheap and something I can pick up at Walmart. Though now I can pick up Proactive in my mall through a vending machine, .

Needs Updating

Sarah — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 22:07:41 +0000

My truck, that is. It’s a 2001 Blazer, with the Trailblazer, leather and tow package. You know, not much available in the way of upgrading it (shut it, if you hate Chevy, or SUVs. I don’t care. I love my TB!). Well, I guess there is one thing. I want to add a few new car accessories, like seat covers and things. But, what kind of seat covers are safe for heated seats? That won’t block my ability to turn it on and off.

Must Have

Sarah — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 21:54:02 +0000

When we get a house, finally, one of our must haves is exercise equipment. I want an elliptical and/or a treadmill. Josh wants a bench and free weights.

I also want a decent size TV so we can do work-out DVDs and things. I’ve got a couple that I like but not having enough space to do them really limits what you can do at any point. It really sucks sometimes.

Annoyances

Sarah — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 21:51:26 +0000

There are so many things that annoy me:
1. Alarms going off for no reason. People here have these wireless alarms, that if you walk too close to their door, it goes off, and they don’t deactivate it, ever. Drives me bonkers.
2. Kids who scream constantly. My neighbors’ kids scream like someone is killing them, and their parents are like “shh, be quiet”. Ugh!
3. People in general. I just hate the world sometimes.

How about you?
