On with the show, I mean, book

Mood: still blocked

Okay. So Chapter 6 is done. It was the whole family eating dinner/disaster scene I had intended. I even got some reviews siting what a bitch Kelly was and that it seemed very real. I have never been in that situation so all of it is coming from movies I have seen, lol. My parents were together for ever and still would be if my mom hadn't died. I, personally, would care if my dad started dating (it has been 5 years) but I know a lot of people feel wierd in that situation. Anyway. Kelly shows up drunk to the affair and tells off Steve and Jackie and storms out just like a little brat. She just gets bitchier and bitchier in every scene, but now I am sure there is something behind the bitchiness. I just haven't decided what that is, but I have an idea.

Chapter 7 is going to set up Steve as a protector. He left the dinner early to go pick Betsy up from the train station and on the way he's going to run into Kelly who is walking home. He'll pick her up and have a little talk with her about her attitude. I think that is when Kelly, in her drunken, state will hint at what is really going on in her life and probably break down. Of course she won't remember any of it and deny it all. So I pretty much have all of chapter 7 plotted in my head--why haven't I started it yet. Ugh. I don't know. I just don't feel like it, I guess. But I will have it done by tonight, I promise.

I just had a great idea for chapter 8 (which following my pattern should be from Hyde's POV). I'll have him drive Jackie and Karrie home and then head back to the Forman house, to find Donna sitting up crying. He'll finally find out what is going on between her and Eric and will have to make a decision regarding his old friends and it will involve a lot of old feelings on his part. Oooh, don't you just love teasers.

On another note--how do you like my new icon above. Got it off some site for us NaNoWriMo people. it keeps track of my totals so I don't have to write it out each day.

And today is Nov. 13--just one month until my birthday. I'm going to be 29,shhh , don't tell anyone
