shadowlightDay 3 of NaNoWriMo, day after Election Day. Once I found out who and what won*, I was too angry to write the Glory story I slogged through yesterday. So I switched and did 1905 words of my unfinished Chicagoplex story, which was easier, more planned out, more anticipated (technically), more violent, and altogether more 'Sally'. Not sure which one I'll do tonight. Finish the short story? or save it for 'angry' nights? probably I won't have much time tonight, so easier might be the way to go.
*Stupid won. The Smart and Gives a D# Party decided to fight fair** this year, knowing the zombies would not. When asked why she didn't carry a single county in the whole state, S&GDm gubernatorial candidate said, "Well, I was an incumbent (in another position) and I was a S&GDm." Isn't that like an NFL quarterback saying, "Yeah, we lost the game, but I'm with the Green Bay Packers, and everyone knows we suck." ?
I'm getting really tired of political flunkies just saying stuff that wouldn't slide by on wikipedia, and huge masses of people just believing it without consulting even a dictionary.
**by which I meant "clean elections" rules, but I've since read in old newspapers that the certain factions within the party went for mean-meany negative campaigning that only cost them goodwill...against the independent candidate, sparing nary a speck of mud for the candidate who wound up actually winning. Somedays, I wonder if they even want to win, or even remember that their intention had been to drain the proverbial swamp.
