Orange Juice Adventure

I call it that. It was really me and my mom going to WalMart for, well, orange juice and stuff.

Yep.

Also, do you guys remember the goals I posted earlier this year? Well, my Goal No. 4 was to finish my Big Project. I've kind of kept it a secret this whole time. Before yesterday/today at two in the morning, only about four people knew it existed.

Well, if you acknowledge me on almost any social platform, you will know that I (please excuse the excessive caps to follow) WROTE AND FINISHED AN ENTIRE NOVEL. A WHOLE 79,000 WORD NOVEL. THAT HAPPENED, I DID THAT, I AM STILL FREAKING OUT.

Yep, my Big Project was a novel.

That I finished.

I'm starting the editing tonight, and I'm still just going to freak out that it happened.

The worst part is that people are now asking what it's about. Obviously, I know what it's about. I can tell you the moral of the story, carry on and on about why some characters have the names they do, explain where I think everything takes place, and all of that. No problem. I can write a whole book. One thing I can't do? Summarize a book. Whether I've written (!) it or read it, I just can't. I always think it sounds stupid when I explain it, so I always say stuff like "Just read the back!" or "I promise it's so much better than all that!"

Definitely something to work on.

So, yeah.

That happened.

Carry on.

Hearts On My Sleeve

The internet has told me one thing and one thing only today: I am clearly not American enough for the Superbowl. Not only did I have no idea it was today (to be fair, I barely even knew today was Sunday), but I didn't even know which teams were playing. A quick scroll through Twitter told me everything I didn't need to know, though, so I can go on pretending that I care.

Just kidding.

I don't. (Sorry.)

Anyway, I'm still sick. Luckily, I think I'm finally on the mend, but I still felt like I needed a bit of cheering up. And thus I found myself in the most fantastic sweater anyone's ever owned, ever. It's so soft, and I want to live in it.

Most of my day has been spent writing, listening to "Miracle Mile" on loop, writing, and napping with Jerry the Buffalo because Charlie clearly wants nothing to do with me.

Ingrate.

is all the time.

I went driving today, which was only mildly terrifying, thankyouverymuch.

So, real quick: here's what I wore.

Now, I've got three days worth of music tasks to catch you up on. Not sorry.

A song I used to love but now hate: "Some Nights" by fun. I love the song, but I just really hate that Autotune chunk in the middle.

A song I often hear on the radio: I don't know, uh, something by One Direction? I don't listen to radio much, or whatever. I'm lame.

And finally, a song I wish I heard on the radio: "Santa Ana Winds" by Cold War Kids. Solely for the fact that I love them, okay?
