day 1 of writing

45 minutes into my foray into National Novel Writing Month, and I already have 945 words (of the 50,000 required minimum). Yay! Now I just have to be able to keep this up. Audrey is being pretty irritating. Lots of sniffing the keyboard and pleas for attention. I'm going to go to Joe's to write tomorrow, to avoid this hassle with her. He is also doing the novel writing month, so we'll be able to push each other along.

Tomorrow I have to go to Elgin to attend a boring work-related conference. I guess it beats the webinars I've been having to participate in, but it does mean a long early morning drive, and struggling to stay awake during speeches I don't care about.

Lost was good tonight - lots of resolution yet they opened enough questions to keep me excited for next week. I'll hold off on any spoilers for awhile.
