Let the 70 Days of Sweat Begin!

Tag: Sweaty SvenKerry Allen @ 1:00 am

Blog silence courtesy of Trish and Mr. Perfect, who have gone on an anniversary trip and left me with their two monstrous children, Perfect Junior and Barbarian Princess. I took the little brats on the condition they brought their Wii and Xbox, and I’ve been playing video games all week while the prepubescent slave labor does my spring cleaning.

(Actually, we’ve all been playing video games all week and the house is in a state that would make frat boys shudder.)

My Sweat-O-Meter is parked on the sidebar for the benefit of Big Brother. My original goal was to have 150,000 words on the combination of Gabe’s book (of which there is a pre-existing draft) and the IWS by the end of Round 3 of 70 Days of Sweat on May 16, but I recently started another 70,000-word project I think I’ll focus on instead. (Who’s fickle? I call it flexible. Not to mention a hell of a lot more realistic than 150,000 words…)

Even if you don’t participate in the challenge, check out the blog. They have great motivational stuff… as if Sven alone isn’t enough reason to take a peek.

  1. lisabea is SO pretty.

    So, er, what are you playing on the xbox? It’s a tool of satan. :booyah:

    Lost Odyssey and Devil May Cry 4.

    Personally, I have always believed the Wii is much more suckish and have now confirmed the lack of need to purchase one. It’s a toddler toy.

    I’m not rushing out to buy an Xbox because the number of games exclusive to it isn’t all that compelling (that’s why I went with PS from the beginning), but if somebody gots games I disn’t, I ain’t too proud to slum away from my PS3.

    Nothing to do but twiddle my widdle thumbs waiting for the pretty girly men of FF XII VS…
