Wow, look at you! Congrats on the word count!
*huggles* You are wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, and I love you.
*gladly returns the hug* Oh, well thanks. So are you. And I love you LOTS.
*smiles* I'm so happy for you. You've got a lot done.
Terribly. But it's my own fault, really. I have less than 500 words. (I hope to remedy this tonight, but I know I'll still be behind.)
That's much better than nothing. Just keep on trucking and you'll catch up before you know it. There's no need to feel rushed. The count for today is only three thousand, which is a lot less daunting than it seems with everyone around her going crazy.
