last post of November PLUS 10 on Tuesday

So. I won NaNoWriMo. I finished writing 50,000 words yesterday, verified it on the NaNo site, and was proclaimed a winner, but I didn't feel like one. I actually felt very meh about it and I think it's because I didn't really care about my story at all. I only finished it out of spite, really, because I wanted to say I won. It's finished in that it's more than 50,000 words long, but it's not finished in that it comes to a satisfying ending. And it probably never will because it's SO BAD that I never want to think about it again. Note to self: don't start knocking up characters and having others make out and letting people get kidnapped by bad guys JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN. Anyway. NaNo is over and, once I post this, NaBlo is also over so I'm left feeling all, "now what?"

Well, right now, "now what" means 10 on Tuesday so...that's something, I guess. Wah wah waaaaaah.

1. Where are you from? Have you lived there your whole life?

I am from Narnia or Hogwarts or Terabithia, which really means I live inside my head and, yes, I've lived there my whole life.

2. How would you classify your clothing style?

Half-assed.

3. What kind of car do you drive?

A blue one.

4. What would your dream home look like if you could have it (or already do!)?

It would look like Hogwarts, obviously. And it would have a time machine (with a clear titanium bubble) in the garage.

5. Do you have kids, and if so, how many and how old were you when you had them?

I don't have any that I know of.

6. What is your favorite hobby?

I would say reading, but reading is more of a necessity to me than a hobby in that I NEED IT TO LIVE.

7. Are you going to have any New Year’s resolutions for 2011?

Probably.

8. What is something, if anything, that you’d want to change about yourself?

Well, I wish I could fly, if that's what you mean.

9. What is something that you love about yourself?

I hate these questions.

10. Pick one of the following: Someone to cook for you, someone to do your laundry, or someone to do your dishes.

All of the above, duh.

You're a winner! I knew you could do it. Also, I'm totally impressed that you managed NaNo, NaBloMe, AND the Harry Potter Challenge all in one month. Seriously. I couldn't even do one of those.

I am finishing NaBloPoMo today and OMG so glad. I did it because it to honor my one year blogiversary, but I am pretty sure I shamed my blog. I do not have enough to say about anything to write every day. Maybe I should have centered my posts around Harry Potter - that makes sense with a food blog, right?

I can't even imagine doing NaNo and blogging and HP. Crazy!

Aww, your answer to number 9 took me back to "Blah blah blah my name's Vox and I hump dogs."

You can call me, 'Sir' said...

When you say 'half-assed', does that mean that one butt cheek is bared at all times? That seems pretty adventurous for your neck of the woods. I mean, it be fine in Toledo, but, well....that's Toledo. Bare assery is the tamest thing you'll see up there.

Number 1 is the best answer I have ever seen for that sort of question.

I'm so proud of you. You're my hero.

Joe, well, I half-assed at least two of those things so it's really not that impressive.

Mary Sue, I couldn't even center all my posts around Harry Potter...I sort of felt like I cheated with all the video posts but oh well!

Gretchen, see my above comment to Joe. Hee.

h!a! Vox DID hump dogs.

Sir, if I tried that, half of my ass would fall off. Cause it's cold, see.

NTE and it's true!

Ashley, see my above comment to Gretchen. Heeheehee.
