Finally emptied the inbox the right way today - that is, replied to comments instead of just having a hissy fit and deleting everything. I do apologize to those of you I owed comments but never gave. I get overwhelmed by my mail sometimes and freak out. Blargh. *note to self - if you answered the damned things as you got them instead of saying "later" you might not get backed up*
Also was finally able to see the start of the next chapter or two of Kidnapped, so will try my best to write two chapters of that tonight. Which somehow reminds me I stil owe Sky comments on *her* story - and I need toorder beg her to write more.
What else?
Was slightly in a funk yesterdayd, over the idiocy of my coworkers - my friends here made me feel much better, as did talking to my sister.So thank you all. Was also fretting about money again, which is never good for my mood. One of these days I will accept the fact that I'm poor and incompetent with money and will never have it to just spend casually. Cleary I'm too materialistic for my own good. I just wish I knew how to stop letting it get to me. Blarghity. Not getting depressed again, my eyes are *still* sore from crying last night.
Cheerful stuff - in addition to Kidnapped, also am working on Genuises. I have not forgottten, never fear.
Really really want to write this fairytale-esque story that is rattling around in its shoebox in the storycloset of my brain. But I'm A) too busy with other stuff and B) Still do not have a name for the MC. I have Prince Charming and Duke Delightful...but I cannot come up with an appropriate name for Charming's younger brother (yes, this story is probably going to go the way you're thinking, unless you're ki-chan and thinking threesome in which case you'd be wrong XP).

I talked myself into thinking that dying (by smoke inhailation, I don't trust my father with the fire sometimes) wouldn't really be all that bad. It would be a great stress releiver, I told myself. XD

Maybe you'll be able to find a word here that you like. =) I'm rather fond of Prince Alluring myself. Is there going to be a dame in distress?

Date: 2004-11-16 09:12 pm (UTC)Talked yourself into...stress reliever? That's a new method ^_~
Alluring I like, too. Hmm....must ponder this.
Heh, I didn't think of Dame In Distress. You rock.

*dances the happy Wapiko-chan dance, then runs off to read The Tower again because it's just that good*

Date: 2004-11-16 09:09 pm (UTC)Lol. Addict. I shall have to make time to write you a new fairytale - before long you're going to get bored with Tower.
Noble might work. Why didn't I think of that?

Or really, I suppose some Calvin/Jason goodness would suffice as well...

Date: 2004-11-16 08:03 pm (UTC)Well, if it makes you feel any better, I'm fairly certain that it's a function of the society that we live in. That we *are* materialistic and often incompetent with money. I know that I am...
no subject
Date: 2004-11-16 09:28 pm (UTC)True, sort of. I think it'd be easier to deal with if I could see a day where I wouldn't have all this damned debt beating me down. But I don't. So it's like runing and running and always knowing I'll never stop.

Date: 2004-11-16 11:46 pm (UTC)I'll bet it made you happy when I said you didn't have to keep calling Katya 'Ekaterina'...
And dude, you shorten it when you need to, so what're you complaining about?
no subject
Date: 2004-11-17 04:04 am (UTC)Yeah, that thrilled me mucho.
Because I like bitching about my characters?

Date: 2004-11-17 06:06 am (UTC)I was not!
...But that was probably because I just woke up and my brain is not yet functional.

Also, that may help. :P
