And never mind stoopid Mercury - it is always going retrograde - it is just astrology speak for bad hair day - nothing serious. I made it to Labrador a week and a bit ago and am now finally connected.

If things are going well, I forget to look at the book. If things are going badly, I dive into the story. It provides the necessary distraction from my "fan pain" but lets me jump right back if the game takes a turn for the better. <br /><br />Best of luck with NaNo.LD Mastersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01202135756299574972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757567191914795875.post-16186410442849856672013-10-22T08:39:27.052-06:002013-10-22T08:39:27.052-06:00Good luck on the NaNoWriMo, Pat.

The reason I sometimes get a pain in the neck (the physical sort) is bad posture while sleeping- e.g., head not high enough, etc. Walking straight upright with my palms facing in towards my body, thumbs forward, really seems to help. Sandy, a trainer at the gym, taught me that trick.John Paul McKinneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12426192694972130205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757567191914795875.post-57108554941056040542013-10-21T23:03:19.828-06:002013-10-21T23:03:19.828-06:00I'm also doing NaNoWriMo this year!
