Merci beaucoup dude and dudettes. Thanks for fanning the flame of motivation/a better metaphor. ^_^

Cadmus: I'm going, I'm going!

Ada: I wish! I've got 2 oral exams and 3 written exams in the next week, so I'm rushing ahead of schedule now so that I don't fall too far behind in the next week. Nonetheless, setting a definite date of December 1 excites me. Wooooo.

Tara: Full Moon can wait I guess. How's the new effort coming along?

At the end of Day 3, I've got 10,304 words/50,000.
