The pope was already booked

New Monday goal. Mondays are my day off--day off Starbucks, that is, which leaves me with the day to work on other things, do errands, etc. During November, it means catching up on my writing from the week before, and getting back up to quota.

Anyways, the plan now is to find a new cafe/diner/coffee shop every Monday, where I can write and get connected to free wifi. Someplace non-corporate, with great ambience, great coffee, and great food. Any other day, when I just have an hour or two, I can hit a Starbucks, or go to Java Girl (which I love, but it doesn't have wifi or power outlets, so I can only write for about 2 hours), but on Mondays, when I've got all day, I want someplace where I can sit for seven hours.

Today, I spent 7 hours in Sunburst, a funky little cafe/diner near Union Square. Seven hours, and I got about 4,000 words written. Not quite enough to put me up to the 15,000 I was hoping for, but at least enough to get me over quota for today.

Of course, curse that wifi, I wasn't quite as productive as I could have been, but still... it wasn't bad at all. Fun times.

Wordcount: 12,229 down, 37,771 to go.
