> Should hit 50K today. Then instead of being a writer with an unfinished draft of a novel, I'll be a NaNo Winner with an unfinished draft of a novel.
> Turned 52 a couple days ago.
> Hair putty. But the braids aren't the hard part. Gray hair isn't ugly because of the color, but because it dulls out so much. I end up buying a lot of junk with "shiny" on the label.
> Walnut Creek, California, and on to Berkeley for college. Then Seattle, briefly, and San Francisco. We moved to Madison, Wisconsin because we could afford a house here back in 1990.
> Two, both boys, ages 19 and 21.
> A part-time job at what my boss calls a metaphysical bookstore. You would be more likely to call it a New Age shop.
> 40 - 50 miles a week, which is a good level of winter base mileage for working toward a spring marathon
> If I must fill in the religion blank, I put "'Satiable Curtiosity"
> Oh, half full, I suppose.

The last thing I read: A rejection letter! Woot! (But they gave me feedback, which was cool.) The last thing I wrote: The store newsletter, for work. I got to try to explain Ongone Energy Art Objects. The last thing I reviewed: A nice little Thanksgiving poem: "Thanksgiving Wishes" by ShelleyA
