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)

XD Yes, I can totally pop back into existance. (Though I was freaking out so badly last month over audits and finishing nano that I would NOT have been good company) I'll be down in Dayton Saturday evening for our 'thank god it's all over party' do you want to do something in the late morning/early afternoon?

Brunch?

Brunch this Sat? I've been wanting to try The Brunch Club (http://tinyurl.com/6kx7pd), want to go? We have a holiday party in the afternoon w/some of my coworkers. I'm sure they wouldn't mind 1 more if you want to come along. We'd love to see you!

Count me in! Sounds like a lot of fun.

Oh, and yesterday on the way back from Honda my boss had us stop at this little store on rt 33 called 'the music store' that has a bunch of old instruments, mostly guitars, banjoes and mandolins, and other bluegrass stuff. But they did have at least one old trombone. I don't know if it's anything that Rich would be interested in, but it's pretty close to me.
