I seem to have given up on NaBloPoMo. I wrote an entry yesterday about my addiction to Packrat, and it got lost into the ether, and I just didn't care enough to write it again. I'm pretty sure I had already missed some days before that anyway. Holidailies is coming right away, too, of course, but Jette and Chip are not so strict about the "You MUST post every day" thing, and I much prefer that! (To be fair, NaBloPoMo does not exactly beat you over the head with a stick, either. They just have prizes, which you are only eligible for if you post every day.)

I did exactly nothing yesterday so I am trying to be relatively productive today. I have already made a few phone calls so I'm doing pretty well by current standards. If I was going to stay home permanently I would have to come up with some projects, like, actually getting some quilting done - which I may yet try to do. But I'm certainly not there yet. And we can't afford for me to stay home, anyway - and I doubt that I really want to, even. But my dream job is <40 hours a week, seriously. I don't seem to cope well with long hours.

I had almost forgotten that I had reservations to go to Austin next weekend. (Not Thanksgiving weekend, but the next one.) I guess I will go ahead and go - it's just for one night and I can see my sister and everything, which I like to do occasionally even if she does make me insane. Although lately she seems much more sane, in any case.

I need to go to the grocery store - maybe I better go now, in the middle of the day, since it'll probably get even worse later. Although half of the world seems to get all week off anyway, these days!
