It's pretty simple: No more computer games or social life. Now if I could get rid of the internet and school, I'd be at 80k already :P

I think I burnt out for a little while there, but I back on track just passing 41K.

I don't particularly like the novel, but I've decided that's okay. I thought of some things I'd like to work on with my writing which gives me direction as to where I should go next.

Well, I've passed EUOL. Just under 5k to go.

Course, this close to the end, my life has decided to become hectic again.

I'm at 47K and am suffering from a possible case of appendicitis... we'll see what the blood tests say.  So I've drugged myself up with advil and am typing away in case I have to go to the hospital. Hopefully I'm okay so I can finish!

Wow, that must suck... I hope all goes well!

Interesting tidbit of trivia: Did you know that the Swiss actually have their own (lame, watered down) version of NaNoWriMo? It's called "Novemberschreiben", which translates roughly to "November writing". Beginners only have to do 25'000 words, which is way too easy. Even if you're not a beginner, you still get a silver medal for 25k and a bronze medal for 10k. NaNoWriMo is so much more hardcore, don't you think?  ;D

Mmmh... gonna break the 80'000 mark today, woohoo!

phew! So apparently it's not appendicitis but a cyst on my innards (sorry if that's TMI) the doctor says take lots of pain killer and wait it out.  :-\ always nice when that's the cure. so on a scale of 1-10 (ten being delivering babies) I'm at about a 6. BUT I WILL PREVAIL.

Nothing will keep me from my 50K...

well, except maybe sitting here writing to you guys!

So even though I decided to do this just a couple weeks before it started and had more on my plate than I thought I could handle to begin with...

I am now done!

So did only 2 people complete NaNo?  42 and Charity?

I'm going to make the award this week, probably today if I remember, so if anyone else made it let me know.

ya, the little symbols next to 42 and my name are our forum awards.  Hauf has a nano 2006 award (being the only person that won that year) and so I'm going to make a 2007 one for you guys.
