Feh. I have been wickedly sick for the past week and a half, so I haven’t made my personal daily goal this week. I am not very happy about it, but I am trying to cut myself some slack. Admittedly, I’m not very good at it, but eh. So, I have readjusted my goal for the last two days of this year’s NaNoWriMo. I want to make it to 200,000 words. Currently, I have 191,009. In other words, I have to write 9 K in two days. Is it doable? If I were healthy, I would say no sweat. However, I am not as sanguine because I feel like crap right now. Still, I will soldier on and try to meet my new goal.
Currently, I have one complete novel and a sizable start on the follow-up novel. In addition, I have started a strange stream-of-conscious non-fiction/fiction piece. We’ll see where that one goes as well. The first two are mysteries. The finished one is messy, raw, and way-the-fuck-too long, but I’m reasonably happy with the overall shape of it. The second looks as if it’ll be nearly as messy, raw, and long. Oh well. I don’t have to worry about that right now.
In other news, I will be going to the doc tomorrow morning. I really hope she can sort me out and give me new lungs while she’s at it.
Well, I’m very impressed. Hope you get those new lungs!
Thanks, Choolie. So do I.
I’m going to try and get back in today or tomorrow. I’m sure this means more antibiotics and I kinda want to stall them till after my weekend.
*sigh*
whabs, aw, that’s sucky! Good luck to you.
And????
What did the doctor say and what are they doing now?
Virus. Wait a few days. See what happens. Smart, really, but not what I wanted to hear.
Mine was bacterial. Regular old staph caused by an allergic reaction I scratched and then got an infection. I may have to take another course of antibiotics, but she said I could go have fun at the ocean first. 😀
She also gave me a topical steroid solution to use to aid in the healing. I said, “But I’m allergic to steroids!” She said, “You’ll be fine with a topical and if you feel like shooting people from a clock tower, call me first.”
So I have to wait till at least the 15th to know if I am done being treated so you still have time to beat me to healthy!
whabs, I’m glad you have your weekend first. Your doctor sounds like a hoot. I feel like shit, but yeah, I think I just may beat you to healthy. New entry!
