NaNoWriMo No-show
Well, there was a mixer tonight in Murfreesboro for people participating in National Novel Writing Month. I had a county government meeting scheduled tonight. Originally, I decided that would be a conflict, but yesterday and today I figured if the committee meeting got over with early enough I would still have time to get to Murfreesboro. I got a copy of the agenda today and it looked promisingly light.
Well, the meeting ran longer than I had been hoping, and I had accidentally left my cell phone at home and didn’t want to drive to Murfreesboro in the rain without it, and by the time I ran home for the phone and then went on to Murfreesboro the mixer would have been half over.
I probably should have gone anyway. My co-worker Mary Reeves and her teenage son Ben (with whom I shared a stage last spring) went, and Mary has already e-mailed me to tell me that she got me copies of the handouts and the party favor.
Another reason I wanted to at least check my apartment after the meeting was that my new study Bible was on the UPS truck for delivery today, and I figured it would arrive while I was at the meeting. I didn’t want it to sit on my porch and risk getting wet.
It never came. I guess they will reschedule for tomorrow.
