*kicks Geniuses and Torquere*
Dec. 5th, 2004 09:10 pmCalvin and Jason want to be difficult, and on top of that
I tried to buy a story off of Torquere Press and I get NOTHING. Last time it was a processing error, and this time it's just "payment pending" for a transaction that one would think it pretty instantaneous.
Whatever. It's probably something I did. It's just rather fucking frustrating when my account is short four bucks instead of two and I have NO STORY in my inbox. Well, if things don't work out in the morning I'll email them and confess what is probably my own stupdity.
That'll teach me to buy stuff when I shouldn't.
Back to Calvin and Jason I go.

Shit. I still need to go the library to get that video so I can watch. But goddamn, if it's on reserve, I'd have to watch it there, huh. Norg I hate mother fucking reserves.

Oh yeah, stop spending money you shouldn't.

Good luck with the translating. I'll send you what I've written so far. Maybe a positive word will improve my mood, though I won't be upset if you just tell it sucks and I should try again.
GODDAMMIT. I just wanted something new to read. *goes off to sulk*

Date: 2004-12-06 06:02 pm (UTC)I emailed them this morning and have already heard back - seems there was some sort of error b/t my bank and them. Some glitch. All worked out - as soon as I get home I can download it (and they even offered to give me two others, which I feel bad accepting since it's not really their fault. But we'll see, far be it for me to refuse free good smut).
Speaking of things that make me happy, where is the apollo/ares love? *harass harass harass* XP
XD OMG, the icon so fits!
