I'm outlining for a change, and so far I have 9 chapters clocking in at ~5000 words each with the end of the novel nowhere in sight.
How do I know each chapter will be 5000 words? I am the author-god-emperor, that's why.

I made PostSecret cards for each of my characters, and I've added in a character{won't be shown till the end}. Mostly because I've got my characters and a few scenes planned out, my mind is wandering into future novels{I can't help it}.

I'm watching a lot of TV to be sure that my DVR is empty come November. I'm also trying to find decent stopping points on two other projects while doing character bio's and general background work.

Testing out the old laptop I haven't really used since last year's NaNo. Everything seems to be in working order, as I'm typing post from it.
Also, I wonder if stocking up on some more coffee beans this week would be a good idea...

I need to stock up on coffee, candy and Coca-Cola. Good thing Halloween's coming up, one base covered. <3
Oh yeah, and I need to brush up a throw-in character @.@

Starting to doubt myself... I new I couldnt escape my editor, he operates even before I start writting. I think day one I may have to kill my inner editor in a side story and hide the body

Stocked up the pantry so's I don't have to spend too much time at the grocery store next month. Plus, the hutches for the plot bunnies have been scrubbed out and I have a new ribbon in the typewriter. Outline and character profiles are finished. Now for five days of staring at an empty page...

I'm not going to start at midnight-- I'll be over at a friends house. I'll Probably start the 2nd, in all truth. I need to be able to recover from Halloween{today, technically... Even though the sun ain't up... >>"}.

9 hours and 38 minutes left, I'm trying to clean my entire place. At least, I'm trying to pretend to clean my entire place. That's good enough, right?

I'm attempting to clean as well, although it mostly feels like I'm just shuffling stuff around. I can at least say that I will have all of my laundry clean by the beginning of November.
Now to run off and worry about planning my novel more...
EEK!

I'm in the car with some of my family checking the NaNo site with my sisters phone wondering whether or not to take my notebook in the mall just in case.... Overexcited? Anxious? No, no. Not at all.

sung to the tune of Alvin & the Chipmunks' Christmas song:
NaNoWriMo time is near
Time for coffee or for beer
We've got plots and we must write
Near 2000 words a night!
Want some plots as thick as soup.
My MC wants a hula hoop!
We can hardly stand the wait,
Please NaNo don't be late!
Somewhere it's already November!!!!

"For writing a first draft requires from a writer a peculiar internal state which ordinary life does not induce. If you were a Zulu warrior... . If you were an Aztec maiden... . But how, if you are neither a Zulu warrior nor Aztec maiden, do you prepare yourself, all alone, to enter an extraordinary state on an ordinary morning?
"How set yourself spinning? Where is an edge–a dangerous edge–and where is the trail to the edge and the strength to climb it?"
