Sometimes all it takes is a day to remind you that every problem is only temporary and usually has a solution.
And today, I got a check from the government in the mail. It's not 5,000 bucks, but it's better than nothing, and it was completely unexpected. That's always good money to get.
Still cynical as always, though.
What? Like you'd expect anything different!

I'm WAY behind on my story. This weekend and next will help, I hope.
Funny, but the comic book club I joined also meets at Villains Bar & Grill shortly, with the theme "your favorite villain." I like the schemers, so mine are Wilson Fisk, Dr. Doom and Thanos.
They are also bad guys whose hubris tends to undo them, so they're a bit more...

I had forgotten about that one. As soon as you mentioned that I remembered the one where they spike the other kid's drink with Tabasco. Good times.....

Ok, first off: adding people to your friends list, I'm quite certain, has nothing to do with going "pink" and becoming an SG.
Secondly, it only slightly annoys people who know what you're up to.
Third: is it really THAT important? Why not just let your set get judged on the merit of being a good set? I don't normally agree with the admin around...

Preach on brother, I am sick of people trying to friend me who I don't know. I joined this site because in the early days it was not a popularity contest.
I am not sure when being nekkid on the internet became a form of self validation but I am not happy about it.

Not belonging to any of those regional groups means that nearly everyone on my friend list are people I have never met or really talked to... But I share your opinion, it's annoying when people who don't even have a bloody journal add you and go all MySpaz on your ass "VOT 4 MEEEEEE!!!"
Not cool.

Wow... I could not imagine writing that much in that short a time period; and not just because I am a two finger typer.
Paranoia, cha cha cha.........
I am 12,038 words into my nanowrimo novel, but I should be at 20,000....I'm a little behind.
But, this is still 2,000 more words than I did last year, and 7,000 more than the year before that. So I'm doing ok. I just have to focus and stay positive. No matter what, I am doing this.
And the nice thing is,...

It has to be possible, Patrick Swazye did it in Road House and my understanding was that was a documentary.
Good for you for writing... I could never get out a piece that long if I tried.

Why must my brain and body be so defective?
I've had sinus issues all day and since last night. The only good thing about being too worn out to go outside is that I have no excuse not to work on my novel for nanowrimo.org.
Maybe when I become a rich and famous author I can get a sinus transplant.
I owe Apexx and Unaffected...

I think that if a close job that pays much better and doesn't require me to rely _too_ much on the CTA comes up, that I'm gone. There's not really anywhere for me to go with this job and my department may not even exist in two years.
