venetia_sassyMum got me up in time to watch the Melbourne Cup today. I didn't have a favourite (haven't been following) but it was a pretty good race to watch! Americain powered home.
After watching the race (with two cups of tea) I made another cup of tea, sat down at the computer and wrote 1883 words, met a new character (who may or may not survive later editing) and realised my main character is probably a good deal more damaged than I originally thought.
There was another cup of tea in the middle of all that.

The weather has gone from hot and humid to warm and muggy to cold and damp. I do not object to this last change at all but it is kind of bizarre. Two days ago, we were thinking we'd have to set up the portable air conditioner. It's not quite cold enugh for a heater tonight but it's getting close. WTF? But I will take the cold weather over hot gladly.
