NaNo update!

Well, I just realized that today is the 16th, and I was planning on writing an update on the 15th, the middle of November, but I forgot. So I'm writing it now.

I'm at approximately 22,000 words, and I believe I'm supposed to be at about 27,000 by tonight. It's been a touch-and-go deal here; some days I've written about 4,000 and others I don't write anything. So far I've been keeping up fairly well, and it'll be interesting to see whether I'll actually write the full 50k words by the end of November. Where has the month gone?! And for that matter, can anyone believe that it's almost 2010? It seems like the days and months and years slip away more quickly the older I get. I'm already about 5 months away from my 16th birthday, and then I'll be driving (provided I get my license, that is) and have a job! Some days I think Peter Pan had a good idea about staying young forever. But I guess that's a choice for us, since we can all stay young at heart.

Hmm, this post ended up turning into more of a philosophical one than I intended. Oh well, that'll give you something to think about! ;)

You get to drive? Lucky! Also, you get a job. I can't wait till I get a job. I'm going to try and get one before I turn 16. I don't know if it's legal, though... :)
