Excuses, excuses

Well, I knew when I started this whole word count thing that you guys were going to keep me on my toes and sure enough, you are!

I apologize that I haven't posted a word count lately, but I'm even sorrier for the reason why...

I actually haven't made that much progress.

(picture Ally hanging head in shame.)

That's right, I'm only about 2,000 words ahead of where I was a week ago because...well...it's been a pretty crazy week.

What with spending three exhausting days doing school visits. And then Thanksgiving. And then being home with the fam. And then buying a house.

Oh yeah, you know what *I* bought on the biggest shopping weekend of the year? A house. Which let me tell you takes A LOT more time than buying sweaters off of EddieBauer.com (which is ordinarily the only shopping I ever do).

Houses = Lots of spreadsheets and phone calls and faxes and sleepless nights.

But it's hopefully over now for a little while. Again...hopefully.

I also wasted two whole days waiting on the UPS guy which is a very long, psychotic story that no one really wants to hear and I frankly don't want to tell.

So there you go guys, the word count is creeping upward, but hopefully I'll be picking up some momentum soon.

nighty night,
Ally
