72,000 words!

Greetings readers!

And I do have readers! o.o I knew Alison and Pearl read this, (thanks guys ^.^) but I have other readers too! Thank you adrennalinpro for reading! I don't know what you mean you hope to be as good as me, I don't really do anything impressive with my blog. Er, that's one of the snags I have thus far with my book...I don't have a title at present. And I have no idea what I'm doing about publishing to be honest, but if you have any recommendations that would be epic. <.<

I hit 72,000 words! The first Harry potter book is about 77,000, so I'm only 5,000 words away from that! And I need to remember: This is a rough draft. I can go back later and change or edit things, so I need to stop worrying about how perfect it needs to be or how maybe no one will like it and both it and I will be a total failure and why am I still talking like this?!

OK, we did not go to that conference. Guess why! We got the day wrong! It was on Saturday, not Sunday...so we missed it. I'm surprisingly disappointed, I was starting to look forward to going. It saved a lot of oh so thrilling drama, but still. I was wondering what they would have to say about it...and that maybe it could help me get closer to God in spite of this. Not that I still can't get close to God, but it would be easier if I knew more about the relationship of the my faith and my...preferences, in detail.

We had another get together today, which was awesome. We played the Naruto PS3 game a lot, and the game is just amazing...and we played Dragonology! Which Alison won, after what must have been a couple hours. With much tickling of David in-between. We also made (or rather, David made with some minor assistance from us lowly peasants) Chicken Alfredo with a salad and bacon, then he made a cobbler with strawberries and peaches. Yeah, that sounds dreadful, I know.

Vampire Diaries...how many times can I praise that show? It's just fantastic!! Eye candy + plot = very happy Andrew. The main actress plays the heroine and one of the more villainy characters! And the show V, about aliens and stuff, is really good too, though not quite as epic. I want more Merlin...but thankfully, Naruto is no longer just history/flashback episodes!

And as, you know, a side note, (like it shouldn't have been the first thing I blogged about) my parents are finally divorced. It's not exactly something to be really cheerful about, but I'm glad it's done. Hopefully they can both move on with their lives now, and I'm sort of hoping dad will be able to let go of mom. Mom took us out to dinner afterwards, and it was actually completely awesome. We went to our grandparent's house after for dessert. I love mom's parents, they're wonderful. ^.^

I've started chatting on deviantART's chat-room thingies, and it's actually nice. They're some really funny, cool people on there. I'm mostly chatting in a gay/bi/etc chat-room. <_< The people there are helpful, and supportive. I've never actually talked to other gay guys, so it's quite interesting to be able to interact with them.

Altogether, things are going well lately. Please pray I keep doing well with my book, get more motivated to write for longer, and do well with my situation and stuff. Long blog. >.>

Thank you readers! You're (and I know you didn't see this coming) awesome!!

Andrew
