Day two of my March dare and I'm going strong. Yesterday I did my minimum amount of exercise, read two chapters in a current book on writing, two writing exercises from said book and wrote over 300 words on an old fantasy novel I dredged up. I don't know much about what happens and I'm about to run out of what I've plotted but I'm just kinda going with it for now. I don't know if I exactly ate healthy, but I did eat less. We skipped lunch 'cause mom was taking us out to an All-you-can-eat bar-b-que place. It's the best restaraunt in the whole county, nearly the best in the state (can't beat the chinese place in Tuscaloosa we like to go to, Trey Yung's). I didn't stuff myself, but I was full.

Today was a beautiful day and we went for a walk in addition to my minimum exercises. So far I've read a chapter of my writing book and plan to read another in a moment. I think I've done well eating less too. I'm planning on getting in to writing something too. Probably just an exercise. I'm not exactly 'in the mood' to write today. I forced it yesterday but I didn't feel like writing then either. I've got to get that joy back, that urge to write. Until then I'm not going to force myself too often.

Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday are going to be tough days to keep up with the dare. We have Xander's doctor appointment in B'ham then we're planning to go to Montgomery until Wednesday afternoon. I'll take the trusty laptop so I should be able to get some work done in transit. I should be able to keep up with it, but it will be difficult.
