draycevixen's pledge yesterday, and promised myself 23,000 words on the Big Bang story by the end of the weekend.
So what did I spend this afternoon and most of this evening doing? Writing? Nope.
Instead, I completely purged my closet of every piece of clothing I no longer wear, no longer fits, is no longer a style I can carry off, or just leaves me wondering what the heck was going through my head when I bought it. I actually found a summer blazer with shoulder pads. Shoulder pads! Obviously, it was one I haven't worn in years, if not decades.
The closet is now kind of amazing. Things aren't squished together anymore. I've organized the clothes in a way that makes sense. I may even now start on my fashion dream project: photographing every piece of clothing I own and uploading the pics on my iPod, so never again will I look at a skirt or a turtleneck or a pair of awesome funky tights in a store and wonder if I have something that'll go with it.
The writing wasn't a total write off, though. Look!
It's still possible I could hit 23,000 words tomorrow, if I have an awesome writing day. So, fingers crossed...
