Getting Closer

I made a bad choice today of going with my Mom to a home improvement store. I forgot that those places are like the black holes of time and souls once you walk inside of them, at least for my family. We spent three hours in two home improvements stores and only bought one track light. We went in not for a track light. In truth, we went to the first store in look for a type of door, which did not exist, and then for a hook, which also did not exist. Then we went to the second store (which was not the same as the first... as in not the same company) and went looking for a medicine cabinet. They had one that was what my Mom wanted, but the package was opened and she feared it was already broken. We did not buy it. However, we did end up finding a track light that I don't want to hang but I know she is going to try and make me hang. I plan to try not hanging that piece of crap. We also searched for the imaginary hooks again, which still did not exist.

So three hours later I came back with two things. One was an idea for some stuff that will happen later in my story (and it is really cool, can't wait to write about it). I've noted it into my sticky note for this story (which I usually don't think TOO far ahead with, else I might get bored). Anyway, the second thing I brought back was a huge bag of annoyance. I didn't want to write and I didn't even want to watch TV. All I wanted to do was lay down and sleep. I chose to write though and ended up spending an hour trying to make 1,000 words make sense. I gave up and decided to play video games for a little. That seemed to help.

Anyway, just finished up writing a little bit more and I'm getting closer to making my goal for this month. Hopefully by tonight I will be within 5,000 words of the goal (and I'm hoping to be within 3,000) so that writing for tomorrow won't be too bad. I'm positive that I'm going to make it this month though. Amazing considering where I was like 10 days ago.

OH MY F***ING GOD!

Seriously, I have 3 days (including today) left to write 10,000 words and my Dad is being the MOST annoying person on the planet. He's like "go look this up for me and see if it is worth it," and then starts vacuuming in ALL of the rooms I am trying to write in. I can't even hear myself think and it is driving me crazy! For f*** sakes, I wish he would go find something better to do than vacuum the entire house!

Seriously, I'm going crazy with how much interference he is causing with my writing. Like if there is a reason I don't complete this month, it is because he won't stop annoying me. And the worst part is that he thinks I'm a problem...

On another note, I have finished chapter 6 (which was longer than expected, but that was nice because it means more words) and I am moving onto chapter 7. I think Chapter 7 will finish up this month's goal as well, though I don't know if the chapter will continue on past the goal.

Everyone pray that my Dad dies, it seems to be the only way I'll get anything done.
