Foggy Musings on a Monday Morning
12, Nov 2007I woke up with another headache this morning, which I am not pleased about. After a battery of drugs, it seems to have receded somewhat, which means this is just a weather-related one.

You attempt to write 50,000 words in 30 days. That’s it. “Whoa, that’s it?” you ask. “That’s a lot more than ‘it’!” And you’re right. [...]
