Writers beware, please go read this post at Candice's site. Readers beware. The litary world is in trouble.

Oooh NYPINTA have you lost it?

Oooh it kills me. LOL. Really. Honest. NYPITA announced that she is going to try to write a novel in thirty days as part of NaNoWriMo . Wow. Heavy duty. Really. That is a big task to take on, writing 175 pages or 50,000 words in thirty days. If I were not boondoggled right now with my classes and work load, I might be tempted to try this. All I could think when I read her post… Instant Insanity. What a mental work out! Then I thought about it on the long drive to get the kiddie-kins and I was even more leaning towards … "What on Earth, has she gone mad? Do I need to provide some sort of mental intervention for my dear friend?" and so, I get home… pull her blog up and follow the link.

This is where it gets really cool. The site is awesome. You can make donations to help youth writers and stuff like that. I was all for her doing this. I read every available page (well, every page I could read and cook dinner and bathe the kids and get them settled in… yadda yadda… yadda)

I kinda like the idea.

No, I like the idea and I am rooting for her 100%. If I didn't have this crazy work load I might even be tempted to do it to. Maybe next year. Maybe in December I will do it just to see if I can do it. Why on earth did they pick November? OK so, maybe I will wait until January to try it. November and December are kind of busy.

So, if you get a chance check out NYPINTA and NaNoWriMo.

In other news, I brought Philly her Pecan pie and she promised to make me a cheesecake! Yum. We shall be fat chic's of the campus! Lol. Really she is not fat, I just said that. As you can see by the pic of me that I squeezed into the Halloween pic's, I am a chubbymomma. Oh well. I like myself anyway.

Scarlet was dropped off today to get her ears done. Yea the screamer is gone for a few days. Lol. And I don't intend on picking her up until Thursday or Friday. J Chloe is booked to go to California on Friday and meet her new family. That will be a relief. Chloe is a really nice dog, very pretty, and everyone is trying so hard not to get attached to her! If Betty doesn't like her I will take her back. And I am not saying that to be selfish. She is a likable dog. But Chloe is also a puppy and pretty good at puppy stuff (like chewing, stealing, testing the waters of play and play and poop and hide and …. Urgh!) But all , the puppies do that! Chloe will sit. I have got her to come to her name, sit, and walk a little on a leash. She is not fond of the leash Betty and her hubby and children will have to figure that one out! She does not potty in her box but she sounds like a police car when she wants to get out to go! She likes to go potty about 3 am. Oh well. We are excited to see her go to California but we are also going to be sad to see her go. Esp Lulu, lulu just scoops her up and totes her like a doll. It is rather cute. Chloe is just along for the ride and Lulu is all business. Doll carriage, under the arm or however. J Chloe has her own baby (that will go with her) and her own blanket (that was lulu's but it will go with her and stay with her) and her own sweater (that she will be wearing). Chloe also got her health certificate today and her last puppy shot. Other puppy news, Ani got her Rabies shot today and is curled up to Lu (pouting) she keeps looking up at me with her ears back like I hit her or something. I feel so bad! I won't hold another dog while it gets a shot! General T is mad at me. He knows that Ani is in the bed and keeps whining.

I get a kick out of General T. He hates to get caught by Lulu and toted. But he loves to love her! After the pup's go out in the morning, I will take T and put him in bed with Lu and let him wake her up. This morning he pile dived her. Over and over like she was a bag of food and he was going to get into it with his nose. She was getting mad. He would ram her and she would swat him and tell him no! So, I put Bear in bed with her and he bounced on her like she was a trampoline. Needless to say, she was not a happy camper this morning.

Molly wants me to cook breakfast tomorrow. Bacon and eggs. Scrambled. I don't know about this. On a Tuesday morning? Grrrr. I might make a deal with her, how about tomorrow morning… LOL? Tues and Thurs we have to leave so early so I might try to bargain out of a Tuesday morning full course meal, cereal, cold with milk. J

SEE that was 906 words. Maybe 50, 000 random words won't be that hard NYPINTA! Good luck.

Elaborating on my answer to reflecting...

I am taping every day (I have a very long drive to/from school) and I started it to compile my thoughts for my writings (school/blog/personal) and there is an awful lot I have to say. Bot that anyone really wants to hear me rant, I am not even sure I want to hear myself rant soemtimes, but all the same it does wonders for your mental state. Interesting what goes on in your head when you stop to think OUT LOUD about it and not just ramble fleeting thoughts internally. And when you do get all the little bits of garbage out of your head, you'd be suprised how clearly you can actually think and how well you can function. I have 17 recordings now from Monday, some of them will show up here, some will show up on my writing blogs or my finding me blog, and when I finish this psych paper, that will show up on my overload blog, and then some... well... lets just say... There is a DELETE BUTTON. here to please. Your blogger Jenny is here and ready to please.

Honored I am to have people reading my blog. I enjoy the comments but I also understand that I am not the only blog out there and commenting on my blogs is not a requirment to being a blogger buddy. I know people are reading my blog, or looking at my page, Ihave a hit counter. It always suprises me to see it move! I am like, WOW.... five people looked at my blog today (and I could prolly tell you who they were.. LOL) but anyway I just wanted to clarify that.

A little introduction for some people who don't know the history of me and blogging. I spent six years managing a chat room. I had two online communities that I managed, one of which I owned, and I had a third one that I was a member of but did not manage it. When I started to blog I was a chatter. The only reason I started to blog was becasue my favorite friend from HS also blogged and it was a way to keep in contact with her. But I could not compete with others for her attention to my blog, so for the first few years of blogging I was just doing it without heart or real ambition.

When I met Tony (Lulu's daddy) I took a break from the internet. The chat rooms were going to pay, blogging was blah, and I was busy between Amanda and Tony and working at the Prision. I rediscovered my blog when I went back to school. I was a little shocked that it was still there and blogger had not deleted me because of my absence. I started to use this blog then as a journal.

Then I started to look around at other peoples blogs that had replied to the blogs I lurked at (read but not reply blogs) then I started to reply to some blogs, OH yea, then people started to reply to my blogs. And Blogging got intresting fast. My counted passed 1000 hits in May. I was flattered. WOW. Now, I've managed to compile 3,000 hits sense then. Pretty cool, eth? Prolly half of them are me checking to see if anyone viewed my page, but all the same, the blog odometer is moving. Not moving as fast as NYPINTAs 30,000 but hey, she is a great blogger, a fantastic writer, and genuine. I am not saying that I am not, but I havn't put the time or effort into blogging like her. Or like WOW, or like anyone on my sidebar. You all rock when it comes to blogging and blog extras.

So, lately I have burried myself in trying ot be a better writer. Thanks to BB's blog and I realized that the next step to blooging is making an impression with my writing. Only a portion of it is on content, the other majority of a good blog is the way it is written. If you got something to say and say it poorly, you mise well not have said it. So, that is where the tape recorder is comming in. I need to get back in focus with my writing (somehting that I have laid aside for a decade) and thus my blog is undergoing another change. I am rolling over from journal mode to writing mode annd I hope the experiec3e is a great one for all.

And YES, I know the above section has a lot of grammer errors, spelling errors, and what nots, I am typing in my PJ's, I've dropped the kids off at school, and I am freezing (49'f) and planning on getting back in the sack as soon as I hit "Publish Post" and Perhaps I will come beack later and do some editing.

PBBBBLLLBBBTH.

Here is how my next blog begins, "However you want to phrase, paraphrase or reinact that...."
