I think the only way to really come to terms with what has happened is to pretend it didn’t happen.
Go on, ask me who won the election?
Go on….
You: So, Matt, who won the election?
Me: No, sorry, I have absolutely no idea. Was it Howard Dean?
Anyway. I’ve been working on my NaNoWriMo thing off and on for the past couple of days. Despite getting off to a good start on Monday night, breaking through my 1666 word target for the day by at least 10 whole words, I’ve had a bit of a setback in the meantime, as I’m only on just over 2000 words now (because I had to spend most of yesterday’s writing time rewriting the utter drivel I’d written on Monday in a desperate bid to make that word count). Whatever, I’m still doing better than last year (by, ahem, about 2000 words).
Hmm. Denial. Glorious Denial. Not a river in Egypt, after all…
Yeah, the thing is, it *didn’t happen*:
