Well, I did fail, actually. I wrote 140 words that were random, but cool. I don't remember exactly what it was that I wrote about, but I can check...

Yeah... I did. Looks like I missed the second U. I'll fix that...
OH, and so far today I have written 431 words. As far as I know. I will probably write more, because of my project.

I'll get to writing the new chapter when I get to it, which might not be until next week, because things are so crazy this week.
And It was actually of a different story that those 400 words were. One that was for something else that I haven't finished. Because I was planning on working on homework, but then I ended up having my friend over because I needed to take a break. We played in the snow. :D

Hands Roni a "feather duster" to poke her muse with. Muses hate being poked with hard pointy things :]
Oh, my muse doesn't need poking to wake up. It just needs the impending doom of project due dates to vanish, and it will come right back! And if it doesn't, then I'll try poking it with the feather duster.
*sigh* Well, at least I'm almost done with my essay.
