I'm in

You may have noticed the incomplete section on the right sidebar of this page that says, "Are you in?" The NaBloPoMo icon is supposed to appear there but I'm having trouble with the code. Anyway, this is what you should see:

and if you did see it in the sidebar, you'd be able to click on it which would take you here:

so you could learn all about Mrs. Kennedy's National Blog Posting Month. It's a great alternative to NaNoWriMo, the ridiculously insane program encouraging writers to begin and complete a novel in one month. Um. That's so not happening here. But that's why NaBloPoMo is so cool. It's actually something I can do. Or something I think I can do. We'll see. I aim to complete the challenge and stick to the rule (it's simple: post every day in November) in the hopes of flexing my writing muscle and to test my fortitude for such a task.

The funny thing is I tried something like this last year when there was no NaBloPoMo and I failed. But, now that there's a program with actual logos from which to choose, I'm sure to succeed, right? Yes, well, of course. Everyone knows that logos make the impossible possible. And although I can't promise that I won't bore you with every day tales of the mundane (wait...isn't that what I normally do here anyway?) I do hope to have a few gems to share with you during the month of November.

So, I'm in. Are you?

I'm thinking about it. Only problem is that it's difficult for me to post at home on the weekends. Vince did just get a laptop -- bought it off a friend who was upgrading -- but it does not have a space bar. Fine for surfing, not so fine for posting. I could write weekend entries in advance and have them post automatically... I dunno. Should I?

We're heading to the northern reaches for the November holidays, beyond the reach of ready internet. So, I know I won't be able to post every day in the month...but I will do my best to post often. Hopefully, people will check in to read what I'm writing - I know I'll be keeping up with you!

Well, I'd like to THINK I'm "in" but I've never really been "IN" and what with the freakin' morning sickness and all...

Hell, 'course I'd do it. Phsaw. What ELSE do I have going on? (Please don't tell me)

Oh, the guilt! Now that I know you're in...argh!

i so completely and totally *want* to be in, but...um...i'm having a bad run here, so i think i'm going to take this opportunity to unofficially try, which hopefully will catapult me back into blogging more regularly. the logo, though? might be too much sidebar pressure for me ;)
