NaNo prompt 3

**I'm sorry to those looking for my blogfest entry: I didn't have time to make it out. Please forgive my poor planning.** 

How many days has it been? It feels like forever since it started and I look forward and there's still a while to go. LOL Open Mic on Friday was fantastic- we had a really good turnout with some singers, short stories (I read one of mine) and poetry (I read some of my poetry too). My best friend came with and she even read one of her pieces. So I really enjoyed this event. It's inspiring. The next one is November 19th, and I'm going to have to write new stuff for it...Hmmm

Times screamed at my fairy muse:(This week 0)
Nervous breakdowns: 0
Number of pens thrown across the room:1
Days word count has been slacked:2
How many short stories completed: 3 and a half so far.
Number of times my hand has swollen: 1 
(My right hand swells when I write or play on the computer alot- acute tendinitis is what I have in my tendons. I'm technically "not supposed" to type at all let alone write...but its part of who I am, I can't be a writer without writing :)
