What would Nancy Drew do

One book down and one step closer to developing an argument. I even managed to read the essay question.

My words-per-day-calculation has followed its customary fashion.  Seven days to write 2500 words, that’s 350 words a day, highly doable… Four days to write 2500 words, that’s 625 words a day, quite doable… Two days to write 2500 words, that’s 1250 words a day, cancel all plans and eat cereal direct from the box only, but doable… One day to write 2500 words. Oh crap.  

Reading Half Moon Investigations reignited my childhood mystery sleuth envy. I always wanted to be Nancy Drew. She solved mysteries AND had a car. The closest I got though was a folded newspaper that I pretended was Penny’s computer book.  I made my sister pretend to be Brain and I would talk to her through my imaginary wristwatch communicator.  Of course we couldn’t be more that five metres apart from each other because the imaginary watch on my arm didn’t actually transmit messages. She would complain that it wasn’t fair that Penny got to have the computer book and the watch. I told her that Brain had all the exciting disguises though and she was satisfied. Sucker, Penny was way cooler! I think I have just worked out why I want an iPad so much.

But now it is time to ask What Would Nancy Drew Do and solve the mystery of the vanishing time.
