I am short :(

Short by almost 200 words of yesterday's goal! This sucks! I've been so good with exceeding the goals, at a nice steady pace, but I just couldn't do it yesterday. I blame the "sekrit" and having no one tell me what it is. Maybe adding to the frustration is that the story is very "realistic", nothing out of the ordinary happening much. Where are my zombie pirates and space monkeys?

At least I'm past 13,000! Amazing, huh? I'll be short some words tonight but I hope to make it up over the weekend.

I overly-enjoyed yesterday's Dear post, so here are some more:

Dear Chase's mom,
Boy, you are a harpy. I didn't want you to be so shrill, we'll have to take it down a notch, mmkay? We are boarding on Joan Crawford.
sorta-love,
the one who made your husband leave you (oh my, that's the second one, isn't it?)

Dear Virginia,
You live in Virginia! Hee hee! Can you really live in Arlington or is that just a cemetary? Man, I am too lazy to look it up. Good luck studying!
love,
your unimaginative name and living place picker

Dear Ulster,
You may not exist as a North Carolina town, probably because I stole you from Ireland while listening to Stiff Little Fingers. At least I gave you an awesome new Chinese restaurant! First date city!
love,
Chinese buffet patron

Dearest Thomas,
Okay, so you are somewhat human. You are flawed. Please show me more of why Chase picked you? Kthnxbai!
sincerely,
the author
