			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My day started in near disaster&#8230; ok well not really a disaster, but a near inconvenience. I painstakenly made sure my alarm was turned on for this morning but I neglected to make sure it was set for the right time. Luckily, my brother/housemate had to leave for work just after I was supposed to get up. This was lucky because he has an insane schedule and it&#8217;s rare he heads to work at a remotely normal hour. </p>
<p>He bellowed at me from outside my bedroom door, effectively scaring the be-jesus out of me. My feet hit the floor and I was off running. Happily, my morning routine is pretty simple, so I still made it to the bus stop with minutes to spare. </p>
<p>Week two of this class I&#8217;m taking is personality assessments. I love this stuff. We did the Meyer&#8217;s Briggs test first thing and followed it with an interests analysis. According to my interests, I should be either a writer, editor, performer (music or comedy) trainer or speaker or gardener. Apparently, with my current plans of writing and helping to run an e-publishing company, I&#8217;m right on track. </p>
<p>This is a good thing to know. </p>
<p>Tomorrow we get the results from the Meyer&#8217;s Briggs. I&#8217;ve taken this test a few times before and I find it facinating how it&#8217;s changed over the years. There has been a lot of change for me this year, I&#8217;m curious to see how it translates. </p>
<p>Oh and my word count hit 32,000 tonight &#8211; I&#8217;m a happy girl. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At the end of day one for <a href="http://nanowrimo.org">NaNoWriMo</a> I was already behind. Dang this social life of mine <img src='http://suenelsonbuckley.ca/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Sundays are always busy for me and this one was worse (or better) than usual. In fact I started writing this blog around midnight and was nearly falling asleep on the computer so here it is Monday morning and I&#8217;m finally finishing it. </p>
<p>I stayed up until midnight on Saturday with several of the local NaNoers and at the stroke of 12+1 we started writing. To celebrate the occasion I had a glass of chocolate eggnog (President&#8217;s Choice has it and it&#8217;s good) with a shot of kahlua. I highly recommend it (if you&#8217;re under 19 of course -21 in the States) try it without the kahlua.</p>
<p>At the end of day 1 I&#8217;m at 1400 words. Only 300 behind schedule if I was doing a static daily goal. But as previously discussed, I&#8217;m a pantser. I write by the seat of my pants. Some days are crazy busy, so I know whatever i write will be crap. Other days I wake up running. the ideas are pouring out of my brain before my feet hit the floor. </p>
<p>Luckily, today, day 2, is one of those days and because of my flexible schedule, I can spend the day writing. I&#8217;ll be beyond todays static goal before noon. </p>
<p>Good Luck to all participants and good writing (don&#8217;t worry about quality, that&#8217;s why we edit in March)</p>
