Waaaay behind

Well, I know that I said that I'd work on my novel for Lent, along with reducing my sugar intake in favor of water.
However, the novel bit isn't working quite as well.
I'm currently 30 (or more) pages behind. Why? I'm pretty sure that part of the reason has to do with the fact that I have to keep stalling the scene because I keep forgetting to look up which deity/ star they are supposed to be saving. I can only think of so many ways to stall this scene, and I have come up with the last good cause (which is going to result in them finding the deity/ star). Each of these stalling things takes up about a page, and I've had a net gain of three pages since about Thursday. This means that, as I was a few days behind then, I have about 30 pages to go until I meet today's quota. Wonderful!! This isn't going to end well, I'm quite sure of it.
In other news, the sugar-reduction thing is going well. The drink-more-water thing is going reasonably well, but I feel like I'm drinking less water. I mean, I'm drinking more water than I did a week ago, but I'm not drinking as much water as I did when Lent started. It could be that I'm not as dehydrated as I was before; however, I'm still not drinking as much water as I technically should be.
Oh, the annoyingness.
However, I HAVE started practicing voice/ forms/ piano every day, which has resulted in (surprise!) an increase in proficiency in the bits I've been working on (which is completely NOT liable to happen when one practices stuff... not).
Soooooooooo yeah.
Goodbye for now. :D
