maderrMy parents got a letter for me today.
Apparently, my driving privileges have been revoked because I've refused to take a chemical test.
For those few on my flist that don't know - I do not nor have I ever had a driver's liscense (yes I know I'm a loser). As to the chemical test? No fucking clue. I haven't been anywhere near NC since May.
And now I've totally lost what little focus I had. Two nights I've been unable to write, and my deadlines aren't going away. And I most likely won't get a chance this weekend. My slash stories are due by the fifth, and I've written one and I'm not all that sure Gumdrop is adequate. Nor am I terribly certain about Angels. wtfever.
I was in a good mood. Now am not. Going to go get a shower.

Date: 2004-12-03 04:09 am (UTC)I managed to track down an email address and fired off a "umm...wtf..." email. And tomorrow I shall commence with the "whahuh?" phone calls.
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 03:59 am (UTC)Good luck with the writing. I'm sure all will go well.
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 04:08 am (UTC)*rolls eyes* Sometimes I do wonder if the Derr famil was inflicted with some sort of "WTF, Mate? Curse" B/c seriously - how the hell else would some of these problems come into existence?
Thankee. I am determined - no more whining. Write!
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 04:32 am (UTC)Either there's another you in North Carolina, or identity theft?
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 04:36 am (UTC)My dad suggested identity theft. If so - we go from WTF to OH SHIT. And then I find the bitch and "discuss" things. Or something.
But yeah. I win the WTF, Mate? prize for the evening I think. XP
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 04:39 am (UTC)But yes. I have had a normal evening... and I'm just... me at the moment.
No badness... no unnormalness in College Station at the moment.
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 12:09 pm (UTC)Definitely need to find out though. Because getting a letter for something like that is just weird.
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 01:23 pm (UTC)I was wondering if I could beg some of your old stuff to read though. I'm (strangely enough) in the mood for fairytale rewrites, probably because I went through my hard drive and tripped over morepeciousthangold.doc. :P
Any recs or any fics you wouldn't mind tossing my way? XD; *ducks*
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 01:34 pm (UTC)Aaaactually, it's funny you should mention fairytales. I came up with a totally sweet idea for 12 Dancing Princesses. I shall email you, and give you the Angel fic I think is the major sux0r. What old stuff do you want?
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 01:39 pm (UTC)Yay, thanks! And I bet it's not sux0r, as you put it. :P
Um... What old stuff do you have?
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 01:45 pm (UTC)It's totally different from the original ideas we played with, but hopefully you'll still like it.
Oh, I don't know.
Fairytale wise, I think you've got it all. All I have that you haven't read might be Impossible Wish (did you ever read that? I don't recall) and old stuff that'd make you wince, it's so bad. Did I ever inflict Legacy of the Blossom and Night and Day upon you? Both of those are going to rock some day, but for now they SUCK.
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 03:32 pm (UTC)I think I have Impossible Wish (was that the one related to the Crystal Ball idea? If yes, I have it but haven't read it yet. ^^;;; Sorry.) and I've never read the Legacies... You could just pass me all your unarchived stuff and let me immerse myself in fluffy bliss? XD
*slinks away*
By the way, sorry for dropping out of the conversation suddenly. My Internet turned around, bit me, then went off to sulk in a corner. =_=
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 04:21 pm (UTC)Eh. Not worried about. Just if you're desperate, there is always IW. It's not very good, and on my list of stuff to rewrite.
I'll start just sending you random folders of stuff if you want. My stories file is 89 megs, though a lot of that is JUNK.
No worries - I had to leave for work anyway.
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 04:35 pm (UTC)YES PLEASE. *drools*
*hugs*
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 04:42 pm (UTC)I wish I could zip this stupid folder, I could just send the whole damn thing at once *kicks useless work comp*

Date: 2004-12-03 04:50 pm (UTC)And For a Kiss is ADORABLE. <3
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 04:58 pm (UTC)Yeah, that was another written for Skylark. Probably should not be giving it to others since it's her story - but you're my beta so she'll probably let me live. I'm sure it needs help anyway.
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 05:02 pm (UTC)Do you intend to rewrite that one?
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 05:06 pm (UTC)Really? Huh. Must've been a prelude to my current style. I wrote that one a while ago.
Not really, though given my latest desire to improve ALL my old stuff, who knows? The only ones I plan to rewrite are Beauty and Main Gauche, b/c I feel they're both a little choppy - but at the time I wasn't up to making them longer and more intricate.
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 05:13 pm (UTC)Hmm. I think those two won't require much to become truly SPIFFY works of art. XD I mean, the raw potential kind of jumps out at you, so I doubt you'll have much of a problem with those.
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 04:40 pm (UTC)...*cough* Sorry.
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 04:42 pm (UTC)Hee ^____^
I was thinking of adding a "X years later" bit - but I thought maybe it was better as is, and more in keeping with the original Nutcracker Suite.

Sent a bunch of stuff to your gmail account - from my gmail account that I have never used before, lol.

Well, I am older and bolder and more evil, so the temptation to alter that bit of the story grow and grows.
no subject
Date: 2004-12-04 04:08 pm (UTC)And you know my thing for threesomes, so I don't have to tell you about the absolute ADORATION you will have at your feet if you write it right? XD XD XD (I suspect S will be there with me. XD)
WTF
Date: 2004-12-03 02:46 pm (UTC)Love You Monster, sorry you get stuck with the curse or whatever it is. But you are something else and you just aren't allowed to be perfect. That would be no fun to the rest of us.
Re: WTF
Date: 2004-12-03 04:22 pm (UTC)Mostly a joke, ma mere. Stuff like this keeps me from getting bored, tha'ts for sure. Love ya muchly.

Date: 2004-12-03 04:19 pm (UTC)Know what I've decided? All things related to the DMV are spazzariffic. I think it's like... the black hole of the universe. You go in, file everything in good order, waste hours of your life explaining things to the scary people behind the glass and little metal speaker, and they tell you that they never got your this or that, and you didn't sumbit yadda yadda, and don't qualify for blah blah blah.
And then they take people who don't even drive, and tell them their priviledges are revoked. o_O What sense does that make? See. BLack hole of logic. Hole. Of Blackness. And Logic. ....+lack thereof.
They claim I don't have enough points to get my license. I had to go file for a passport. 6 points my ass. If my birth certificate and parental statement is enough to get a freakin' passport, it should be enough to get a driver's license. So in a few weeks when it gets here, I can travel the world, but I still have to take the subway to go out. o_O
[/rant]
As for the writing, you'll do it. ^_^ One of the best writers on my friends list. Something will come to you, just hang in there. *hugs and luck*
no subject
Date: 2004-12-03 04:32 pm (UTC)Yeah, Blackhole sounds like the perfect explanation.
And thank you ^_^
File that under...
Date: 2004-12-05 10:34 pm (UTC)We can file that DMV letter in the same file with the letter I got from the University of Utah in Fall 2003. It was a rejection letter for an application that they lost, supposedly canceled, but they felt they should send me a rejection letter anyways in Fall 2003 for, what else? The Fall 2003 semester... hmmmmmmm... won't be applying there again.
People are fucking dumb.
