Nano Blogging Day #10: Breaking 30k

Woot! I'm past the 30k mark, which means I'm past the halfway part. I still have a way to go before I'm where I want to do.

But I have learned an important lesson. When in need of words to fill a big hole between plot points, gay sex is always a viable option. In my defense, my characters are married, so it's totally cool. And yes, as far as I'm concerned, same-sex marriage is already a reality. It just doesn't come with tax breaks and property rights yet.

And for the record? Saying that tax breaks and insurance sharing is what validates a marriage and "sanctifies" it is like saying that you can't have a cheeseburger without ketchup and pickles. It's nice to have them, but as long you've got meat, cheese, and buns (don't forget the buns!), it's a goddamn burger and any snotty burger purists can just get a side order of STFU & GTFO with that.

But enough of my political views.

Oh, I'm exhausted. I'd like to get to sleep at a reasonable time sometime this week!

Congratulations!

That's a LOT of words!

Thanks! I've been trying to boogie down with my wordy self since I was behind from last wekk.

You also are doing some major kicking of butt and taking of names from what I've seen, you went for the extra double bonus round of the Nanowrimo Extreme Edition.
