So I realize that I haven't been posting much lately. Why? I blame NaNoWriMo.
So close. So very close.
For Thanksgiving, I shared dinner with Mary Beth and her parents, and then, like crazy people, we went to the outlet mall at midnight. And then Target at 7am. People, I am too old for that kind of thing. It was a good time, mostly because there wasn't anything specific that I was looking for, and admittedly, I did find some good bargains. But I am kind of amazed at the people for whom this was a major task. As we were driving to the outlet mall, we passed Best Buy, where there was a crazy line of people outside. People with tents. And I'm pretty sure the store didn't open for something like another 4 hours. I like a bargain as much as the next person, but part of me can't think of a particular item that I would be willing to spend hours and hours in the cold for. I suppose there were a lot of people buying gifts though, and that does change the situation a bit.
I would not have been one of the people in the crazy line outside the Coach outlet though.
And now I have a cold. I blame the shopping.
To make up for my lack of posts, I've decided to do Holidailies again. You have been warned.
I'm doing NaNoWriMo this year. Anyone else? Yes, that's right. 50,000 word novel in one month. And next month I've got to spend a few days in PMF training as well. Should be an adventure. I'm prepared to write the biggest pile of awfulness ever. But it's still a fun way to waste time.
This weekend, MB and I went and looked at monuments in DC. It was a good time, but it proves how lazy we are. Admittedly, I did go running in the morning, but about 2.5 miles in, we decided we were tired of monuments and just went home.
We did go running this morning though. We're not that bad.
And now, I leave you with a hilarious picture from Erin and Jay's wedding. I have no idea what was going on, but clearly it was awesome.
