I can see where this might be a problem

I should have seen this coming. I'm determined to get at least the minimum requirement of 1,667 words per day in during NaNo. Okay, no big deal - I've done it and to spare all but one day so far - but I'd managed to forget how easy it is for me to get on a roll late at night. Those of you who think I'm a morning person have never seen me on a creative writing kick; I definitely have night-owl writer leanings.

And so now it's 12:30, I've got 1,761 words in for the day, I'm wide awake and wanting to keep on going, and my alarm clock will be going off in under five hours.

I think I'm going to have to keep a better leash on my nocturnal writing tendencies and a firmer grip on reasonable bedtime hours if I'm going to survive this month.

There are poor, deluded people in this world who think you're a morning person? Quick, someone get them a reality pill and some sanity juice. ;)

I know, I know - but it's true nonetheless. Almost all of my co-workers and a surprising number of my friends really do believe I'm a morning person. I guess I'm a better actor than I ever knew. :-p

I think I need more coffee...

I raise my triplegrandesoylatte to you. Cheers. See you tomorrow a.m. for a mini-write-in?
