gah?

has anyone else noticed a bunch of new features on livejournal? if I wasn't so lazy I might read about them but for now I'm just going to assume I'll understand in due time.
NaNo has begun! Excitement abounds! The kickoff party was great, less people showed than expected (as expected) but everyone who came was very friendly and very excited about writing. I hope my battery shows up by friday's write-in at Borders so I'm not writing against the bulkheads in Christian literature. hmm. heheh. or maybe I don't hope...
ahem.
Anyway, I will be posting NaNo updates, irregularly, at my alter-ego/pen name's/writing account, lotus_born if you're at all interested in seeing the kind of madness November produces.
Woo hoo!
Oh, and the cello came yesterday.
::grin::
it's gonna be a fun month.
