Let me start by saying that I hate Daylight Savings Time. I don’t care which time cycle the country decides to use, but for the love of Solstice, just pick one and stay with it, okay? This changing back and forth thing is stupid. I hates it. I hates it forever.

That said, last week I wrote an ordinary and not-particularly-inspiring 2757 words, bring me to a total of 56117 on this book. This week I will likely do something similar. In looking at my weekly count so far this year (I love spreadsheets), I see that 2500-3000 words a week is the range I hit most often. I’d like to double that over time, and will work to do so. But it used to be zero words a week, or nearly zero. So I have made real progress.

For now, the Greeks have declared war on me in Civ V, and I need to get back to that. And this afternoon, maybe, I’ll eke out a few more words. But I’ll never stop hating the spring and fall time changes. Never.
