I don’t really understand the term “throwing shade.” It’s supposed to mean “insulting someone,” but wouldn’t it depend on the weather? I think it might be a good thing to throw someone shade on a hot day.
“Hey, throw me some shade, would ya?”
“You’re an asshole!”
“Thanks!”
Can you tell I’m tired?
I finished NaNoWriMo today with a win.
See?
And to celebrate, I bought myself a NaNo mug. Obviously I don’t have it yet. I’ll take a picture when I get it.
The original plan was to write two 30K novellas and finish NaNo with 60K. The first novella didn’t make it … I finished the story with 19,995 words. To make it even, I wrote “THIS IS DEFINITELY THE END” at the end. So I still had 30K left for the second novella. Only THAT ended at 26,223. So I started another novel.
Now I have to finish that. Does it ever end? I hope not. I like this gig. It’s a fun gig.
I hope to get caught up on all the comments I’ve been neglecting this last little while. Sorry–I’ve been reading all your comments, I just haven’t replied to them.
And tomorrow I’ll be back with a couple of posts. The coloring prompt and one more.
Stay tuned!

Living here in Florida, I am more than willing to park farther away from a store if I can get a spot in the shade.

I’d never even heard of the phrase until the option came up on one of my Sims to throw shade at another Sim! Not knowing I did and the other Sim was not happy lol! Congrats on winning NaNoWriMo! Looking forward to seeing the mug when you get it!
