• The Secretariat trailer makes me tear up. As does watching any clips of his races on youtube. There is just something about that horse that makes me teary.
• I think I know what I want to write for NaNoWriMo. Now I just need to start constructing the plot a little more, and tweak the characters enough to give me some structure. I'm going to really try and get everything ready for me to write when November rolls around, so that I don't have to worry about the plot too much while I'm writing. Hopefully that will allow me to focus on getting the right number of words on the page. Here's hoping!
• That all being said, how do I reset my nanowrimo.org account? There's gotta be a better way than deleting all of last year's info, right?
• I've decided against doing any sort of holiday fic exchanges this year. I'm only interested in finishing the two fics that I started this summer, and not really looking to write anything other than original stuff for the next little while.
• Not that I really have time these days to do a whole lot of original writing. D:
• So not caught up on any of the TV shows I'm watching, and other shows are starting up again. How will I ever keep up? I did finish watching The Pillars of the Earth though. Which, while it was annoyingly inaccurate with the characters' ages/looks, was really amazing. And it had a song in the soundtrack that we sang during Freshman year music, and then later Euclid came up. I was like, "This is awesome. It's Freshman year come back to haunt me in my TV shows." Still, it was amusing and fun.
• I got an awesome pair of boots at Target last night. And discovered that Revlon is now making their lip stain again. In a different sort of applicator, but still. It's still called Just Bitten though, which amuses me to no end.
• A couple weeks ago I got free tickets to see Lúnasa here in Santa Fe. The show is next weekend, and I am super excited. I am taking my dad. :> Because no one but him could properly appreciate it with me. Here, have a video of my favorite song. I hope they play it.
• There are a bunch of things through the end of the year that are playing/showing/being performed at the local theater that I want to see. And they apparently have awesome student rates, so I might actually go see some of them. Including a "live in HD" showing of Das Rheingold, which is now playing at The Met in NYC. $15 student tickets are kind of way too good to pass up.
• My kitten was playing with a live bird in the living room this morning. I heard from the woman who's cleaning our house and apparently the bird died at some point. I am sorry, little birdy. I was running late, and you scare me, so I didn't rescue you. D:
