Dec. 4th, 2008 10:38 pmIt has occurred to me that the only reason why Lockon hasn't taken over my entire LJ is because I don't have a perfectly sized and customized header to replace Itachi. If that ever happens, well... I'm d00med.

I've been looking at my NaNo -though not with the critical eye needed to tear that shit apart just yet- and contemplating where to end the first book. Yes. First out of what I'm thinking may be three. I say three because there are two more major events [only one of which I'm certain of] that will happen and be the main plot of each book. I still don't know how this will end. I never end stories well anyway. =__=;
I have 3.5 major bullets [17 sub-points in the major subjects] to finish before the first book is done. At LEAST 20 more pages of writing, but knowing how long it takes me to get through just ONE sub-point sometimes, maybe I should double that? It wouldn't be too far off, but if it's shorter, I'm not gonna complain.
Aaand of course, I have this lack of attention to detail the first time around. I have to go back and add massive details. I made a list of things I have to consistently go back and add/change. There are 7 main categories; most have little sub-bullets of specifics. See. This is why I appointed myself a list Nazi. I do it so willingly on my own. -__-
Things to do:
♦ Go through written pages for minor characters
♦ Make Full Characters Spreadsheet
♦ Write up end of book
♦ Go back and add details
♦ Cry softly as edits are made

And I have something else to work on. Certifications. Technical Certifications. I'm starting on A+ then Networking... CNet? I think he said. I forget. My job is going to end in about 3 months? That's what I'm tentatively putting it as. I want to leave on a good note and not get laid off and scramble around trying to cling on to something. I don't want a two-bit job just to scrape by. Even a help desk job would be more in my field than what I'm doing now. Having two weeks off in the middle would be nice, too. Just to relax, get some shit down. Be lazy, etc.
I'm assuming I have to start from scratch for A+ cert, since I don't know much on the technical side. Is two months long enough to study? Hrm... We'll see, won't we? I have a web development degree but don't even like programming past C+. OTL My photoshop skills are random and need work. I need to brush up on CSS. I don't script either. Wooo how useless am I? Time to pull out the old text books and fucking hit 'em son.
