Panic Time! How are you guys doing?

Regardless of where you are we now have less than 48 hours until the official start of NaNoWriMo.

It is officially panic crunch time.

Are you ready? What type of last minute preparations are you doing? (if any)

Better yet, what type of shiny things have you found to help you procrastinate getting ready? Have you spent hours that were meant to be for plotting cruising tvtropes? Get online intending to research and plot but instead went on omegle to troll strangers? Or have you just sat down to start planning when... oh man... you suddenly feel so hungry and snackish that you have the odd desire to bake a cake!

Yes, ye gods, what have I done instead of preparing? I can't even remember - all I know is that my plot outline sort of peters out somewhere in the second third of the story, and after that I just have a few isolated scene ideas, without any clear notion of how to get from one to the other.

Actually, I think I might have been reading roleplaying manuals instead of preparing. Which is... kind of like preparing, I suppose, since my novel takes place in a world with the same general tone as the game I've been reading... ^_^;
