Weekends here are incredibly slack. I went in to to the AIM room to do word wars, and came out 1.5 hours later with almost 2,500 words.
I didn't get a chance to write at work today though - :(
A Neo is a little wordprocessing device. I was *very* skeptical when I first read about it.

I got it from NaNoWriMo, they have a laptop lending program that I applied for --> http://www.nanowrimo.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=71
It's been *saving* *my* *life* though. To knock out a thousand words on the subway this morning was amazing! The thing sits comfortably in your lap and runs on batteries, so I think it's more portable than even a laptop. But there's one addition - there's NO DISTRACTIONS! I get so distracted sometimes by the internet and other applications...
When I'm working on the Neo, there's *none* *of* *that*.
I'm thinking of taking my internet laptop home tonight, so I can finish my novel and load it up, even if it's 3am.

Amazing! How is it that you write more on the days you work than you do on the days you don't?
:-)
And what's a Neo, and how did you get one?
