Went to my second write-in of this year. Had a very nice time writing at Carrot's Coffee and Tea in San Bruno, my hometown. Wrote some 1400 words there in about an hour and a half.
There were just four of us there, nice and quiet. We talked a bit at the end. That's what I like about write-ins. We sit, drink our beverage of choice, whether coffee, tea, or a smoothie. Then we talk for a bit about writing as we unwind and say our goodbyes.
The owner is very nice and makes a delightful soy latte. Strong coffee, soy milk that is not too sweet, and she didn't overdo it on the hazelnut syrup either. One of the best lattes I've had in a long time; and she doesn't charge extra for soy milk.
Came home and started working on my November playlist. I make a new playlist for my iPod every month, mostly for driving to and from work. I'm a few days behind schedule. Pulled out some more new wave music compilations form the 80s, some R.E.M., who I haven't listened to in a while, and (don't say anything) some Christmas music.
Took the boys to swim class, had dinner at Red Robin, watched Toy Story 3, and put boys to bed. Watched another episode of Dexter with my better half, then put her to bed. Wrote another
five hundred words or so, and then called it a night.
Updated my word count at NaNoWriMo, then came here to blog about the day. Wrote 1,942 words today. My grand total so far is exactly 12,250. All in all, a good day all the way around.
