Wrote nearly 5K, finished my [personal profile] spook_me / [community profile] fandomtrumpshate combo story. Wrote my second [personal profile] spook_me story (will post it tomorrow) Finished a chapter in the novel.

Guess what I didn't write? Responses I owe everyone.

I did go to the coffee house in hopes of finishing the spook me story. Almost did when this old guy sits next to me. I've seen him around. He looks homeless but was telling me about falling over honeysuckle at his farm (so just dirty I guess) He would not shut up, got the whiff of lonely old man vibe from him so I let him talk. Even explained why the doctors insisted on operating on him instead of casting his broken femur (no sir, if you're telling me there are three plates in there they did it because a cast wouldn't work, nor would your fix of a couple 2X4s and duct tape, no it wasn't just to charge you 20K) he rather plaintively asked did I think his knee would bend better, yes maybe with therapy. Oh, they wanted me to do that but I didn't want to.

When he started telling me how Bill Gates and Elon Musk were dumb front me for governmental geniuses working behind the scenes creating tech to steal our info I tapped out. Oh am I talking too much? Yes but what I said was I have to go to work. While I feel sorry you're a lonely old man I don't need to sit and listen to conspiracy theories while I'm OBVIOUSLY working.

I did go to work on my day off because they were having the office halloween decoration judging. I don't know if I win but my room makes me happy. What isn't making me happy? My highly over priced LeMax Spooky Town houses falling apart if you look at them wrong. Seriously.

I'll link you up to the spook me stories tomorrow. What am I grateful for? getting those stories done and that author's virtual write in tonight where I knocked out about 2700 words in a hour. If you can focus me I can write like no one's business.

Congrats on finishing the stories!

I hate when people can see I'm obviously doing ~something and still insist on talking to me. (One guy tried the 'you should smile more' line on me and I almost laughed as I imagined some weird grin on my face as I was concentrating on writing, like a clown.)
