November seems to be the month to write; both NaNoWriMo and NaBloPoMo are attempts to get people to write more. NaNoWriMo is Nation Novel Writing Month, and the goal is to write a 50,000 word novel in the month of November. For NaBloPoMo, that’s National Blog Posting Month, and that equates to a post a day. I’m going to attempt the post a day for NaBloPoMo. But I’m also going to make another goal. To finally open up Harleyroads to the public.

I’m terribly addicted to Dicewars. Damn the Internet!

Sarah spent her 10th birthday by inviting all the kids in her class, along with assorted friends (and her teacher) on a ghost tour. Gail does the Leesburg Ghost Tours from April to Halloween. Sarah and her friends learned a lot of history, heard some ghost stories, had their cookies and snacks and hot cider in a cemetery (I kid you not) and got to touch a ghost. She had a blast. I have a wonderfully unique, kooky daughter.

Speaking of birthdays, Cody’s is just around the corner now. He’s going to be 15(!!). After that, it’s my anniversary…after that, it’s Christmas. I never have any money between October and February which is when Gail’s birthday and Valentines Day are – on the same day actually.

When I first listened to Sigur Rós, I wasn’t sure if I liked them or not. Listening again and again brings new levels of appreciation and admiration. Like peeling layers of an onion, each layer gets you closer to the sweetness.

I need a new MacBook Pro. I want Logic Studio, but my old Quicksilver G4 just isn’t up to the task. Anyone got $3,000 to give me?
