bare_bearETA: Sorry guys, I tried to put it behind a cut, but something in the word count meter is borking the code.

So I finished typing up my notes from this day, and bugger, a lot of it was crap. I forgot to factor that into my estimate of how much I wrote. Word count that day was only 432 words.

I did mostly random writing yesterday. Mostly thoughts and notes from papers which I typed up into the appropriate sections, a paragraph in future recommendations, and typed up some references. Kind of piddly, but every little bit helps. Sadly, it really was only a little bit. I only got 368 words yesterday. :(
I'm missing exactly 400 words over the last two days. While I do have that buffer from the first day when I wrote over 1500 words, that doesn't justify me slacking off on thesis writing. So today I need to make up for the missing words, on top of today's 600. Which won't be a problem because I will tackle getting a rough draft of my first chapter today. Well, get started on it, anyways. I should be able to write up at least half of it today if I stick my nose to the grindstone and just do it.
