At this rate you will finish on March 23rd
Kinda says it all, doesn't it?
I got busy.
I got sick.
Mr. Cynic took over the computer and I've rarely had a chance since. I believe he was on for 10 -possibly more- solid hours yesterday.
At 10:30 last night:
Mom: Get off the computer! You've been on all day!
Mr. Cynic: But I need a thousand more words to make it to today's goal!
I've created a monster.
Today I gave him the laptop and told him not to go online in his room.
Maybe I can thwart his progress a little by taking him out for a driving lesson.
Oh wait, that'll thwart mine, too.
Does this make me a bad mother?
My ears are burning.
Hello! I wanted to stop by and say "thank you" for visiting my blog. I giggled after reading your latest post. I have my own "Mr. Cynic", and he often needs to be reminded to get off the computer too! :)
ReplyDeletethanks for stopping by mine, too, heather! aren't teens a joy? ;)
ReplyDeleteoh, mr. cynic is doing nano too? how cool is that!? i wouldn't worry about the doomsday "at this rate" projector - you'll have some days where you will churn out words as if you were the mother of the dictionary, so save up your strength for some mid-week bursts and you'll get right back on track!
ReplyDeletethanks for your words of encouragement, aimee!
