Officially halfway through NaNoWriMo and I’m on track, whee! The story is getting more complicated, the battle scene was a ball to write, Rian had a BIG decision to make after that and I think he made the right one, and now hijinks are ensuing, as they should be.

In other news, there is something simple yet wonderfully satisfying about filing all the bills and receipts. I always feel better when I know all of my financial information is safely put away in the filing cabinet. And yes, I know, “Why don’t you keep it digital or in the cloud?” Because I know clouds can be hacked and digital storage fails. Paper, on the other hand, is pretty reliable.

Also, is it TMI to say that I bought 10 pairs of underwear on sale and they arrived today? And they’re all lovely (a number of them are Christmas and NYE themed)? They’re currently in the laundry basket waiting to be washed (yes, I wash everything I buy before I wear it for the first time) and I think I may need to weed my underwear/sock drawer to make some room.
