I just bought a $50 mouse. No, seriously. In all fairness, it claims to give 15 months worth of battery time, so I should make up the difference in battery usage.
You see, my old laptop mouse has taken a beating. I've used it a great deal, and it gets knocked off the table a lot, so the right mouse button doesn't work well, and the left is starting to fail. It's also getting less responsive. So, the time came to buy a new one.
First, I bought a belkin from Target. Public Service Announcement: Do not buy belkin products. That mouse won't work without a mousepad, which is useless for a laptop! If It can't work on my couch cushion, I don't need it.
So I splurged on a Logitech M505 in a very nice shade of red. Not only is it stylish, it's Logitech, and you just plain can't go wrong with Logitech stuff.
So far, I like it. It's fast, responsive, and doesn't care if I'm using it on my jeans leg or the table.
We'll see in 15 months if it lives up to its packaging about the battery life.
As for NaNo, let's see.
I haven't written much in the past few days. I think the problem has been that my husband has been home all week, thanks to my injured foot/ankle. That does not make for a creatively-inclined writing environment. In fact, he's been here ALL. The. TIME. It's mental interference. So, I'm taking today off for schoolwork and such, and this week I'm going to hit the writing hardcore and catch up to my word count deficit.

It looks like you did a lot of catching up on your word count yesterday (Saturday). Keep going! I'm cheering you on.
