thanks to [livejournal.com profile] mailechan I'm utterly pouty I can't do my Dragonmatch story for Nanowrimo - b/t that and the story I had lined up, I seem to know a lot more of D, which means it'd be easier to write (not that I don't want to write the Blade and the Butterfly...). But I can't b/c the rules say you have to start from scratch.

Ye gods I do NOT want to put up with this construction for 6-8 weeks (and why it's going to take that long is beyond me).

If I'm lucky, I might have a hundred dollars for San Fran. Which is depressing, I thought I'd have more. I might get to buy one or two manga (and this is gifties aside - I want to buy those and have accounted for them). It really sucks. I thought with this new job I'd have more money and could actually buy nice things. Instead, things are the same as ever - I can buy nothing while everyone around me spends and spends. I fucking hate money. Just once in my life I would like to not have to worry about it, instead of counting every fucking penny and having to leech off others. I feel like a loser and I will feel that way until I'm something more than a penniless moron.

Must pack tonight and somehow find time to finish Embrace. And I still have that drabble I promised...sorry, name escapes my headache-y mind.

Makes the drills stop.

Welcome. I also watch everyone spend and spend. I will note, those people have no money either. They however work on cool debts while I stay lame but debt free.

You know, for the me, a postcard from SanFran would be cool too. By more manga for yourself! *hug*

If I didn't have any debt, that would be one thing. But I have so much of it, I literally want to cry.

But whatever. It's my own fault, to a point. I'll stop whining now.

Shush, woman. You'll get whatever I get for you ^_~

I like buying gifts, and I seldom get to do it. so believe me, buying those will make me happier than anything.

Okay. Well, in that case I'll take what I can get. But you see, I'm a simple woman. Even an email greeting card, or a comment on my LJ makes me happy...

Comments I can do easily enough.

Has just realized that she has misspelled the word 'buy'.

I dunno, debt or not, it can annoy when seeing others doing it.

btw, what kinda construction are they doing? Cool stuff or boring stuff?

They'r putting up a temp wall, then they're going to tear down half the floor and put in new offices and crap. I think that's probably boring stuff?

It's more depressing than anything.

*blink, blink* Oh dear. I'm so sorry. I really am, because I would love to see a new story from you while reading all your other cool and wonderful ones.

I will bang my head on the floor and kowtow as many times as it takes to get you to forgive me, and I swear that one year I will make it to a con that you are at and buy you dinner? And offer to loan you pieces of my frighteningly fast-growing library of Suikoden doujinshi?

Heck, I was just kidding. But if you're offering dinner or suiko doujin, I'll keep pouting...

Absolutely. Come to Otakon! You, me, Aster, and my friend Annie can share a room.

Rule-shmules. What should matter is getting in your word count, not following their stipulations. Besides, since there's no prize or anything at the end, who says you have to follow the rules?

Lol. I like the way you think.

I'm not as concerned with the process as I am with the finished product. =)

You are very wise.

Actually, I'm just really sloppy. My works in progress look horrible, but I somehow manga to polish them up enough at the end to be presentable.

See, now you're being too honest ^_~ Stick with 'wise' and no one will be the wiser ever know.
