Day 23...where did the time go?

Happy Thanksgiving! I know I'm in Toronto and am Canadian and already had a big honking turkey dinner just over a month ago, but any reason to have another turkey is good enough for me. So as I write, my little 12 pound bundle of crispy-skinned yumminess is baking along with other tidbits of joy to celebrate American Thanksgiving!

No procrastinating here though. I went up and over the 40,000 mark today. Actually just a whisper over 41,000. Barring any major distractions (like winning a really big lottery), I'm pretty sure I'm going to make it to 50,000 by end of the month.

The weather has been quite lovely, and even the drone of huge construction vehicles, beeping as they backup all over pedestrians and passing busses, can't keep me from feeling good today. I got turkey, a good word count, and I can smell the espresso brewing. Sometimes you really just gotta sit back and count your blessings.

Things I learned today:
-taking a guitar on the subway during rush hour is not the smartest idea
-the smell of cinnamon rolls baking in the morning makes the world a nicer place
-wild raccoons do NOT like to be petted
