Oh, Wednesday, how do I love thee...

My ideas for the novel are solidifying somewhat.  If I can pull it off.  One of my favorite writers once said that a writer should always be trying to write something they aren't sure they have the ability to write.  I see it as a sort of extension of that shoot-for-the-stars, only by reaching for unattainable do we find greatness deal.  I do at least have a working title and on the NaNoWriMo site, they ask for a book cover for the novel info, so I made this, which took about ten minutes.  I am going to try and get some more actual writing done today but other things keep stepping in the way.

For instance, I spent most of my morning so far planning my spring class schedule.  As it stands, it looks like I will be taking Intermediate Algebra, Creative Writing, East-West Worldview, and Social Problems.  Oh, and probably an 8:30am yoga class.  I can't register for the classes until 4pm so I have a little while to mull it over.  If I take all of those, that's 14 credits.  Eeek.

Also, I am going to THORPS to get my hair cut.  It has been forever.  My cutter, Stephen, opened his own shop and between the transition and money woes, I just haven't been able to get trimmed.  Which means I've been wearing lots of hats. 

Add to this a trip to the grocery store, laundry, and studying for two tests, one in Abormal Psychology (anxiety & mood disorders, depression & suicide) and one in Classical Mythology (all the hero tales, Hercules, Perseus, Theseus, Jason, Oedipus, Troy, etc...), I've got quite the day ahead of me, considering it's my day off.

P.S.  I also made this awesome boxing Sherlock Holmes icon.

That's one of the reasons I'm at the school I am for my intro classes - I didn't want to deal with 500 person lectures :P But then, I suppose there may be something comforting in that kind of anonymity.
