Arg. Less than twenty-four hours until the start of a month of writing frenzy. This year, though, I'm probably going to get some sleep before starting. Is it due to less excitement? Practicality? The knowledge that I can make up those words I usually type right after midnight elsewhere? I don't know. But I do know that there are some things I really need to look up before I begin.

Last night, I went to the local kick-off party which was great. Not the same people I've been Nano-ing with the previous three years, but that's all right. It's the spirit that counts. There was a bit of a snafu at The Cheesecake Factory (a two hour wait, just to be seated!) so everyone ended up heading to August Moon for dinner. Which was just as well, I suppose. Everyone could be seated together and the light wasn't so dim...
Now let's see if I can make it to the next write-in.
