Nothing to write here, move along
Really, there's nothing to wrote about I haven't written about in the last couple of days. Well maybe the only thing is that my cousin wants to build a doll's house for her goddaughter for christmas and now she's constantly thinking about wood, miniaturized lighting and measurements. At least it made the day pass a bit quicker as she came up with something different every time we bumped each other during work.

On the 13th
So, I've missed two days of posting. Not that I had set out to do a NaBloPoMo or whajimacallit but it went well for 11 days - then I thought, hey, today, I'm gonna write up seventeen hundred earlier in the evening, not starting at 8 pm, and then blog too, right before going to bed. So I did, and totally forgot to post. Yesterday I remembered, did write earlier again because I had the Hunger Games movie to watch (finally) and again, forgot to blog. Anyways, it's not important really. And so far, I'm doing well on the writing front, at least concerning the quantity. But the goal is 50k words, not 50k quality words, so that's ok.

And now, some knitting
I have started a new knitting project
today. Bought a nice skein from Posh Yarn a couple of weeks ago but
was a bit disappointed by the colour – the result of that „all
computer screens are different” thing. It is a nice colour, of
course, just different from what I expected. Initially I choose a
different pattern: Madli's shawl but without the nupps, and even cast
on for that, but then changed my mind and did a tweak on the pattern,
putting in cables. Drew up the chart this afternoon and cast on,
originally for 3 cable columns which meant 88 stitches. Got till the
sixth row on the first repeat when realized that it will be too wide,
so I probably wouldn't have enough yarn for a proper length. Ripped
back and started again with 2 columns and 68 stitches. I'm still not
sure about it since the cables look a bit weird, so might have to
spend tomorrow's knitting time with ripping back and doing it again.
And again.
Or maybe I will get fed up with that
and will finally get over with sewing up that blanket.

Time zones
Well, I've run over the clock. As in, I put down the pen at 00:02 GMT, which means it's saturday. Had to change the time-zone setting on the NaNo page so it counts my friday's work as such. And yes, I'll have to reschedule this too (if I can...)
Also: off to the weekend, yeee-haaa.

And the night owl mode starts here...
Wrote the daily amount of ~1667 words, then had another thought, opened a blank screen, and wrote another 1500. Just wondering, how much will be actually useful of these?
What definitely won't be: going to bed at half past 11 instead of half past 10. Well. Done. :P

10k
I've hit 10 thousand words today. It could be more if I'd wrote anything during the weekend but i guess I needed that break. Don't know how far will i get though mainly because of the dentist appointment on the 20th. Aside of being obviously afraid of it, I'm worried it will be painful for more then one days... which could render me useless. But that's for later...
