NaNoWriMo Day 8
what normal is
---------------------

It was kind of nip and tuck today,
but I managed another 1,319 NaNoWriMo words today
to bring my accumulated total to
13,664. I should have written more words, but I spent a lot of time today
changing from a first person viewpoint to a third person omniscient viewpoint.
So many pronouns, so much time!
I updated my word count on the official NaNoWriMo web site:

”Normal” is
getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work,
driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying
for, in order to get to the job that you
need so you can pay for the clothes, car,
and the house that you leave empty all day in order
to afford to live in it.
