articles again

monday
29 november.

more PAD articles. i think i got through 15 or so of them. i can't remember how many - i just know i have 10 left on my desktop to read today (tuesday).

spent the day doing that. well and a trip out through the snow to the post office to mail the GTC my CRB application. I'm bummed i haven't gotten the other CRB application back yet because then this one may not have been necessary. as i fear for the sheer length of time that this process will take. they did take my application fee money from me (hence adding to the issue last week) but clearly this CRB thing will take a long time and they won't process my application until they have the CRB. i guess i don't have high hopes for that getting turned around until spring - i'd really like to be able to get work from it whenever that happens but i'm resigning to the fact that it won't be any time soon.

brittany also won NANOWRIMO last night. i'm proud of her. she's worked really hard and spent a lot of time on that. i gave up on that once i was taking all of my notes and reading all the books and articles i've been winning. BUT if you took the word count i have on my my notes and thinngs, i might be close.

let's check (as i would still technically have today to reach 50,000)...

645 + 9553 + 30000 = 40198

oh and if you added the word count from the article i'm writing (i should really try to finish that draft today too if possible), i'd be even closer. (with counting blog words and the words i did for NANO, i'm there)

i think i can do it -- by the end of today, i will see if i can hit the NANO mark. granted it won't be in relation to a novel, but it'll be in relation to my PHD so that's something...maybe...
guess i'll get on that. back to my articles.........
