I have FINALLY decided on a plot and even have it somewhat outlined, which is a definite first for me as far as NaNo is concerned.
Additionally, I have a NaNoBackPack, which I need to take a picture of later today. It contains: - my netbook (loaded with the Scrivener beta!) and charger, as well as several different types of USB cables for charging things - my headphones for when I need to shut out the world - my writing binder (it's got paper, pens, and also holds my copy of "No Plot, No Problem!" as well as a short article on "How to Write a Successful Story" I found years ago) - My Inception shooting script (it's kind of my totem, shut up) - and Cobb Zombie (http://i55.tinypic.com/4in4op.jpg), threat to all Inner Editors everywhere! He threatens to eat Her brains if She doesn't shut up, and mine if I don't write!
I've found Scrivener to be indispensable when it comes to organizing plot ideas and notes for my novel; I'm so glad it's finally coming out for Windows.
Additionally, since I am iPod-less, my phone is filled with my favorite instrumental CDs (and some of my favorite vocal CDs too, just in case) to put me in the mood to write whenever and wherever. I'm okay. For now.
