End of day (beginning of day?) writing update

Alright, it's 6 am and I'm to bed.  Not quite on nocturnal mode yet, but getting there.  I only really burned out about a half hour ago, and managed to push through and get my research objectives roughly written out.  I swear, Chapter 1 will never end.  I'd be finish the 1st rough draft if I hadn't added another section about 15 minutes ago, but my brain has turned off, so I'll deal with it tomorrow (today?).

Despite working on this for the last 5 or 6 hours, I only got just shy of 600 words written.  So glad I didn't aim for the full nano goal, but honestly, even 600 words a day was too much.  Still, I'm really only using NaNo as a guide and way to push myself, so I'm not disheartened at all.  Look at this!  I've nearly got a chapter written, which I'm not sure I could've done so quickly if I wasn't pushing myself so hard!  :D

Anywho, since this chapter is due in on Wednesday (Super didn't say when on Wednesday...), tomorrow (or today? No, it's still the 15th until I sleep) I need to go through and re-write entire swaths of chapter 1.  Luckily, I've already done that for part of it.  Bloody long jerky geology section.  *fistshake*  I will FIX U!  I uh...should also work out at least an idea of what my figures will be, and make a table for mineral paragenesis.  Eep, lots to do!

Good night all!
