Kitchen Stadium Battle, Secret Ingredient Nanowrimo

Nanowrimo is OVER! And I skidded into the finish line with something like 50,100. I say something like, because I never did get it all typed and had to upload a dummy file to the site. It got to the point where I could either write, or type, and the writing had to win. It makes the whole thing a little unsettling since I don't know exactly what my word count is. But I think I'm pretty safe in saying I reached 50K. My estimates are usually within 60 words of the actual count, and I didn't count any pages that didn't go all the way to the last line. So that buffer should be good.

And I actually wrapped up the story as well. Go me!

In celebration this year I bought myself a gps, so I will no longer be afraid to go to the mall up in Lima. (it's all back country roads to get there, and I got horribly, horribly lost the last time I tried)

LOL

I was going to wait, and maybe split it with parents for my X-mas gift. But amazon had one on sale for $199, which was about $500 off. And I looked at my bank account and was surprised to find that I could afford it! I will let you know how it is when it arrives.
