Hello!

I am sorry, but I do not have much to say.

My NaNoWri is going well. I currently have 8, 213 words, so I am only a little behind. It has only four characters so far (three of which actually count) and still no plot line! The great thing about trying to write a novel within a month is that there is absolutely no way for it not to suck, so it's ok!

Other than that, not much else is new. I drove with Dad and Judi to Nauvoo on Thrusday (which was really awesome). Christine and I went to the Lincoln Park Zoo yesterday (which was also very awesome and completely free). I'm getting the hang of navigating the transit system. Daylight savings time was eeeeaarrrrlly this morning, so we gained an hour (more sleep! :).

I loved all of your posts this past week. Thanks for being amazing guys. Miss you all!
Ruth

P.S. As an apology for the brevity of this post, I thought I'd include a poem!
