My wall came a little later than the second week mark they warned us about. I missed out on one night's writing, and it's been hard to get back in the swing of things. I'm about 2000 words short right now to be on pace to finish with 50,000 by Nov. 30. I'll try to get there, but I'm not going to beat myself over the head if I don't. At least I have a decent story started for Two for the Show, the sequel to Playing for First.
Backtracking a bit, HOW 'BOUT THEM COLTS??!! I admitted on my Facebook "wall" that I was ashamed to say I turned the TV off after Peyton's second interception...only because I hate the friggin' Patriots and couldn't stand to see them win. I read more of Kate Sweeney's She Waits, waited a few minutes, and I thought, eh, I'll flip it back on to see what's going on. The score was 34-28 and the Patriots had the ball. I'm watching as they line up for a FOURTH AND TWO AT THEIR OWN 28 YARD LINE!! And I'm thinking, naaa, they'll try to get the Colts to jump offsides. Wrong! Good lord, what the f*** was His Hoodiness thinking?? Anyway...thanks, Bill, for the early Christmas present! And thank you, Peyton, for never giving up. Next time, I promise I won't turn off the game.
Okay...off to read Sweeney's second in the Kate Ryan Mystery Series, A Nice Clean Murder. I like to relax before I go to bed....
