If you could finish (or even write more) of Western Skies as part of NaNo, that would be awesome.
Yeah, POSSIBLY another surgery. Totally unrelated to the first one, actually. This one is from an old knee injury (Army injury). I got it scoped in 2006, but it never healed right, and keeps getting worse. My physical therapist found out that my right knee is partially unstable, the patella isn't tracking right, I've got damage to the articular cartilage, and my right ankle is COMPLETELY unstable. Based on his analysis, it'll probably need surgery, or it will continue to get worse. But we're working on physical therapy for now, and I'll meet with the surgeon in a few weeks. We'll see.
Well, you grew up on the outskirts of the desert. I've never even SEEN the desert. I've seen the open plains, the Rocky Mountains, the Pacific northwest, the California coast, the entire Eastern seaboard, the Great Lakes, the Canadian Maritimes, London, the English and Welsh countrysides, Germany, and Italy. I'm someone who likes to see everything, experience everything. I want to go camping out in the desert someday. And I also have ALWAYS wanted to see Japan, but I doubt I could afford the air fare. It's expensive. I have another friend in Japan that I'd really like to go see. Maybe I'll get there. I hope so.
I love exercising. I was a distance runner, competitive weight lifter, and intercollegiate athlete (on top of my military stuff). Unfortunately, I've had enough health issues in the past couple of months to put a damper on that. It's sad, because I was trying to start training for a half marathon again before it started getting bad. And with the joint problems (not just the knee), the inflammation around my heart and ribcage, and so on, it's been hard to get back after the first surgery. I didn't get there tonight (dizziness and chest pain tonight), but I'm going to try tomorrow. I'm determined to not let this beat me.

Anyway, stick around, yes? :D
