Remember... Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body- but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "holy s***...what a ride!" ----->Don't let your tombstone read: Died at 30- Buried at 80.

I'm not Jimmy the Greek
Don't use me to pick your football winners for you. I was only 2 of 6 in picks this week. (Heck- I even picked the Lions to win!)
Here's my five things:
1- I'm 65% of the way there in NaNoWriMo.... 32,592 words and counting. It was a good day at Cosmo's Coffee Shop in La Mesa. Big thanks to all those encouraging words from you guys, Kip, Bettina, etc.

2- Well MSU is going to get a new coach and as of today we have no idea who it might be.
3- Gooooooo Chargers! What a great win. Any win over the Broncos is big and beating them at in Denver is bigger, but beating them in Denver after trailing by 17 points is H-U-G-E!
4- I just dusted off the Christmas tree box and put it up today. That way when everyone is home for Thanksgiving they can have the fun of decorating it. Now to bring the stuff down from the attic...ugh.
5- My Alphasmart word processor is up and running. This low tech machine is really cool. At less than 2 pounds it runs on two AA batteries. It easily uploads to my computer (any word processor program- MS Word, Word Perfect, Notepad). It is so easy to carry around that it is almost a no brainer. This is making it super easy- no excuses for not only NanoWriMo, but taking it almost anywhere to write. IDEA: I'm thinknig of putting together an e-book (PDF style) on neck and back health for dentists.
Bonus- Lions are #1. It looks my Detroit Lions are making a very strong push to win the #1 draft choice this year... by losing to the hapless, spineless and clueless Arizona Cardinals.
