not a perfect metaphor

it: ::is another script day!::
me: ::sleeps till about noon, then lurches about for brunch::
brunch: ::is semi-lackluster::
me: woe. ::finishes bacon, anyway::
( and on it goes. )
So yeah. That's pretty much my day.

But more on that in another post.
For now: I find myself unconcerned with whether I finish Nano. I think it's mostly because I know I can, having done it once, so it's just... a thing to do.
Also, this may be one of my favorite things I've written. have I mentioned lately I love this game? 'cause I do. So much.

Computer people will call me when Hex is done. I... am rather hoping that's damn soon. This computer-lab thing wears thin after a bit.
Is Wednesday seriously November? Crivens.
My LJ is now entirely tagged up, so I can go change some of the tag names. XD
On the dock: Reading, DJ fun tonight, one paper (noon Friday), Nano, probable company over the weekend for the WIN, two paper (class Wednesday).

Dear LJ: Advertising LJ Talk with 'Instant Messaging. Instant Drama'? Perhaps not so much a good idea. (Though the GIF of Frank flailing at a keyboard and somehow consistently hitting 'pants' is entertaining, I'll give you that.)

In other news, ivory_ivory is once again open for business. Friends-only, as last time; there's a post there to comment on, or you can do so here.

As My Laptop Lay Dying: Crashed again last night. I think it's a bit connected to how long at once I'm using it. Thought to listen for odd noises before I shut it off; it sounded... kinda like the high-tech equivalent of a broken record.
This is gonna make paper-writing interesting.
In other news, break for great sleeping late and the win. Piles of homework for decidedly less of a win, but there you have it; I'll survive. Also, there will be attempts at Nano plotting.

...I think I got the lead-up to the fireworks accurate, in le novel, but I'm trying to decide whether I did the show itself any justice. Might've fallen short, but then, the thing hits four out of five senses... so. (Visual aids may follow if camera and Hex cooperate.)
Either way, I feel like I've properly ended the summer for the first time in a while.

I now have a stack of RenCon posters, courtesy of trinora. To that end: RenCon! Saturday! Noon to six! Second floor of Skinner! (You won't be able to miss it, it'll be the building with the pirate flag on.) Do come, if you're in the area. D&D, DDR, Blank White Cards, other fun times.
Financial aid thinger handed off to parents, as they know the rest of that stuff.
Possibly I will get to write about Rent for next history paper, if I can decide what to focus on. That? Wins, rather.
If I want to take Writing the Novella, I need to send in a writing sample. Prolly gonna brush up a chunk of Nano, as that's the longest non-fic thing I've got.

I should perhaps not find this as funny as I do. But it's bloody hilarious.
I wish I knew what I was writing for the next CW thing. Or whether I still want to attempt Nano this year.
And fortunately, it's supposed to be fairly warm and v. sunny tomorrow. I will not freeze to death in my Halloween endeavors!

*The good news is, the Giant Scary Bugs are not silverfish. The bad news is, they still have too many legs to be allowed.
*Dear Intel, did you THINK about how people might interpret 'an incredible gaming experience in your lap' before you put that phrase in an advertisement? Love, a Yahoo frequenter.
*Still not king sure about Nano, but leaning toward yes.
*Also? I love this game.

If you can get today's Name That Tune, then you know what the weather here's like; hopefully I'll still be able to sleep.
Shall try to print out the Nano, or at least the beginning of it, sometime in the next few days. The key here is free printing in the dorm computer lab. XD
