May. 19th, 2006 10:10 pmThis week's check? Dent in it. I went ahead and got the MP3 player. And it is currently next to the CD-ROM drive, charging and glowing sexily happily. 8GB for me to load all the music on. My apprehension (and elation) are unspeakable.
I've been thinking, and besides reading a squillion books and working and all I've planned this summer, I want to start editing bits of my NaNo novel (remember that? Me going crazy during Novemeber and writing over 50,000 words?). I still haven't finished it, but I'm thinking in the second draft, things will become a little more coherent and that Meg, my main character, will stop sounding so much like me. I mean, yeah, she's fiestier than I am, but I still kind of keep feeling that I'm Mary Sueing (if you aren't familiar with the term: this and Wikipedia explain all) myself and that worries me.
But anyway. Still watching the player glow as it charges. It's eerily hypnotic.
