Place in Story: Galen and Eva are about to meet properly for the first time.
So, technically, I'm not behind on the word count. According to the NaNoWriMo Official Word Count Calculator, I am right on track. According to the Wild Card Personal Not Falling Behind Standards, I am WAY behind. Okay, not WAY behind, but significantly enough behind on my target of 2100 words a day that I'll need to stay up tonight, probably. The trouble is, I know exactly where I fell behind - I can tell precisely where I had an hour or two here or there and I did not use it for writing. I really wish I was not at the point of falling behind already, but I hope I can recover from it.
I know that many of my friends are a lot farther behind than me - quite a number of them are around 0, according to their reports. I cannot afford that if I want to win. I also cannot afford to keep up with this word count procrastination, but I also need to sleep. This is a lot of internal debate.
For now, back to trying to pad my word count.
