It's day two of NaNoWriMo and even though I got some writing done yesterday, it wasn't as much as I had hoped. Most of the problem was the fact that I pissed away more than four hours of it doing everything but writing. Also, I watched a football game and baked some cookies (bacon chocolate chip!!)... Maybe that wasn't extremely productive but I had planned for it beforehand and it would have been okay if it hadn't been for the procrastination... :\

The problem now is that it's day two. Now that the NaNoWriMo website shows you your previous years' stats, I've been obsessing over it. Apparently last year, by the end of day two, I had 7454 words written. WTF. That's a hell of a lot of words for two days. I think I went to a write in for three hours last year on that day so I got in three hours of writing time but still... Now I have a complex. I had only planned on getting to about 5000 words today, but now I feel like I have to do more in order to not lose to last year me. And that's insane, right? And the complete opposite of my plan to not stress about NaNoWriMo. OTL

So I'm gonna try and get some writing done tonight, maybe hit Starbucks for a couple of hours tomorrow in hopes of getting caffeinated and getting some productive writing done. It's only day two and I'm tired... I want to do all the stuff I normally do -- watch TV, read fanfics, play Hay Day... And you'ld think that without Farmville this year, I'd be doing awesome with time but I'm not. *sigh* I just need to stop procrastinating... And since I haven't written anything yet today, I think I'm not doing all that well in that respect...
