0 Hell Week, Part Two

All right, so today's post is going to be short and sweet—Well, maybe not 'sweet' per say. It is about goals and my almost complete lack of progress on the most important one. Bittersweet maybe? That sounds better. Today's post is going to be short and bittersweet today because my day job is being a major pain in my you-know-what. It does this every once in a while, takes over my life completely I mean, and I know it will, but I'm still always irritated when it happens.

Of course, you could probably make the argument that I'm just always irritated. But anyway...

Here are the goals from last week:

1. Do not kill any of my co-workers, no matter how many times they ask if I'm having fun yet.

I'm happy to report that I did not kill any of my co-workers. (and yes, I do mean to imply that this was not the most important goal...) And the temptation was strong, too. Especially that one morning I arrived to find that my co-workers had completely undone all of the hard work I had put in the previous day. Boy, was I mad. And disappointed, as well, because it was then I realized I truly did not have the power to kill people with my brain.

2. Keep plugging away at Part Two of Second Nature.

At the time of my last post, Part Two of Second Nature was sitting at 41,840. It's now at 42,145. Which is a gain of a whopping 305 words. This was not what I had in mind when I said "Must Move Faster" thing. Damn my day job. It just killed me last week.

And since Hell Week was, in a surprising twist of events, extended to this week, it'll probably kill my word count again. Yipee.

So on that happy note, here are my goals for this week:

1. Do not kill any of my co-workers. Even if you do miraculously develop the ability to kill people with your brain.

2. Write more than 305 lousy words in Part Two of Second Nature.

Seriously, if I don't get Part Two done this month, my entire plan for NaNoWriMo will be in smithereens. Must. Go. Faster. That's all there is to it. Still. If anyone knows how I can accomplish this, please let me know.

That's going to do it for me today. Thanks for stopping by. What's on your agenda this week?
