Nanowrimo is having an official marathon this Saturday, would you care to join us? The idea is to write as much all day as you can, in a solid block. Christopher and I are participating, care to join us? We can meet up here in the OOC of course, but maybe also an IRC chat to discuss our woes and triumphs?

That sounds like fun! I'll be around for either. This is my plan for tomorrow:
10 AM Texas Time - wake up! 12 PM TT - go to a coffee place to do more writing! Also ask the barista who is playing what in the football game or something, because it's the sociable thing to do. 4:00 PM TT - take a walk! 5:00 PM TT - more writing until like 3AM yaaay
So basically I'm free all day.

Time differences mean I won't be around until the afternoon, I plan to try and do a chunk around some studying of dull dull things. I will be procasternating like heck. Anyways, I'm happy to hang out and support the marathoners.

I'm fallin behind again. At this rate, all I'll be able to do Saturday is catch up. I did read ahead on my Camus at least...

Hey guys, I'm up and writing but Christopher is a lazy bastard still sleeping. Our internet is MAD STOOPIT right now, I think we're gonna have to replace our router. Anyone know how to do an IRC? I don't... Maybe when C gets up I'll make him. We're going to get over to a Denny's to work eventually, but I am officially marathon-ing RIGHT NOW woop woop. Anyone else out there?

The only marathon I'm gonna do today is homework.

I'm totes getting started! UGH all my plans were delayed because my boss called and asked me to do something in the lab that would take liek five minutes. But it's football day, so there are no parking spots near the building, and I had to walk from far away. Everybody I met was just so disappointed that I'm not wearing the school colors. Actually, I'm wearing this brown sweater with olive green paisley on the front, which looks a lot better than it sounds, I swear, but it's so not patriotic.
Anyway, yes. I'm about to drive to a coffee place because they have comfortable chairs! Be back in fifteen.
And good luck, Brett!

DKender = Your boss needs to [insert horrible slurs and anger here]. That creature in your icon looks like half of a cat and half of a werewolf. What the heck is that?

Yay Deek! See you in a bit. BTW I don't know if you guys have a good writing program you like, I like 'Dark Room' which is a full screen app that hides everything but your writing. The default is a fun neon green courier on black background like a ye olden computer. I just changed mine to brown cursive-ish on cream color for a ye olde of a different time. NEway it's free: jjafuller.com/dark-room/

Hey guys, we're going offline for an hour or two, C's taking the cursed router in for repair. Catch you on the flipside.

Hope the repair works out! Darkroom is so cool. I think I'll switch over - it'll take care of some formatting issues I've had with Word and the black/green mode makes me feel like I'm in the matrix, but a fun version of the matrix. @ Jara - Gasp! My delicate ears ... The critter is actually supposed to be a bat (or bat boy). It's from one of my favorite Junji Ito shorts, Blood Slurping Darkness. Edit: And because we were discussing the villainization of animals (like vampire bats), I actually liked this story because the bats were creepy, but not malicious. This wiki has an explanation of the plot, if you're curious. junjiitomanga.wikia.com/wiki/Blood_Slurping_Darkness

Hey how's it all going? Are your word counts growing like flies on a zombie?
The matrixy screen would only remind me of work. We have this cool thing where a voice says "Agent logged in" when you put your code into the phone. Our screens are like the matrix too.
I'm going to inact the complex ritual of waking up and then make a start in an hour hopefully and study somewhat too.

Started a Wordpress to share a vast majority of my writing in the recent years. The stuff I'm writing with my Mama isn't going to be on there for a while. Still need to get going on my detective-ish stuff.
