November: National Novel Writing Month

Yes it is. And last year I only found out that on like the 20th. Meaning, I did not participate. But this month? It's on like donkey kong. Yes, I will be cheating a little bit, using a start that I already had going, but I haven't added to it in a while. And you, readers, will recognize it because I posted the beginning of it a month ago or so. As I progress to try and finish it this month, with its plot holes and gaps in editing because I didn't plan it, it's all spontaneous, but goddamn, I'm going to do it. Every section I finish, I'm going to post up here. Be as brutally honest as you like. I can take criticism.

So, my job is going much the same. I am actually not there today, because my eyes betrayed me. Yesterday, I was machining when my eyes started to itch like crazy. Next thing I know, the skin around them has swollen like a mask and my eyes are crazy red. So I go to the onsite nurse, she has me set up an appointment with my doctor, and I leave work. Doctor thinks that an odor or something triggered it, and yesterday, the coolant from the machine I worked on overflowed. The coolant has a bit of an odor to it, so in large quantities, probably a contributing factor. So, I'm sitting at home before I go in to the hiring agency to fill out some paperwork for some workman's compensation. Good times.
