But, no more time for chit-chat. I have a bet to win. Ch17, OTW!
@bigedmagusson Nah, mountains is just rocks. The beach is special... the sound, the sights, the smells. But I'm a beach-baby. ;-)
@bigedmagusson The beach makes all the difference. ;-)

Ah well, enough Twittering. Time to deliver an inventive wake-up call for my lovely bride. Or maybe not-so-inventive. ;-)
#NaNoWriMo wordcount for the past 2 days? A big, fat goose egg. [sigh] I'll just have to catch up on the beach while my wife is at her conf.
Decent drive ahead of us today: Charlotte to Hilton Head. 4 hrs or so, mostly on interstate this time. Goodbye winding Mtn roads.
But now it's 7am and I'm in an unfamiliar place, so I'm awake after ~5 hrs sleep. :-/
Late night back at friends' house, drinking wine and playing Scene It? My friend is SUPER smart & competitive, so I had to crush him. :-)
Dinner was good, tho. Shi-shi place with good food. I had an amazing snapper with tomato sauce, with fried cheesecake (!!!) for dessert.
Travel was a minor adventure. Rock slide has I-40 closed, and my SatNav re-routed us through winding NC mountains. +1 hr on rally course.
Rise and shine, campers. Loooong day yesterday. Class, as usual, but then packing & travel, dinner with friends in Charlotte, & late to bed.

@Alice__Gray Send me a flirty picture. That's a distraction... for both of us! >:-)
Downside again, I don't know when I'll have time to write 2k words today, or even get Ch17 ready for pub.
On the upside, it plays the iPhone, and now even displays text on my Nav display. W00T. $700 worth of W00T? Remains to be seen...
Time to go, though. Have to get to my grandkids' house, and have to dodge @Alice__Gray and anything she might throw at me. ;-)
Upside, I'll be in Hilton Had for 4 days with my wife for a work conference (hers). So I'll have some quality downtime to write.
Good news: Spanish exam was relatively easy, but then again, they're ALL easy if you're prepared (which I am). A solid A.
Anyway, where was I? (Before @Alice__Gray so rudely interrupted me with a female-type distraction, which I'm particularly susceptible to.)
Upside again, I get to go babysit some of my grandkids tonight, which is always fun. Downside, I have a splitting headache.
Greets, tweeps, from a very tired Nick. Long day already, and more to come. It's a fun "more," but still more.
Second, I got my new iPod adapter installed in the Acura today. W00T! I can play my iPhone again. Apple still sucks, tho. #AppleSucks
Oh yeah, Ch17 and #NaNoWriMo... I play to spend lots of time writing while I'm languishing at the resort hotel in Hilton Head. [sigh]
On the downside, regular 60k-mile service and adapter installation set me back $540, ON TOP OF the $160 for the new adapter. Ouch!

Oh yeah, forgot to mention it--I got Ch17 back from the proofreaders tonight. Look for it soon. In the meantime, time for bed. 'Night all.
