So it's been really crappy. Things keep going wrong - key breaking in lock at storage place, Kieran's job screwing him over, etc. Our apartment is small and so crappy, I keep trying not to complain with little success. Oh yeah and that part we're waiting on for Kieran's laptop? It was never sent. So I've been assured it's been sent now -yeah right- and will be here in about a week.
I haven't gotten a whole lot of writing done in between my feeble attempts to set up the apartment and ride herd on Davin. He doesn't get no or chooses to pretend that way and is into everything.
I really miss chatting with my friends and being able to keep on top of LJ. It makes everything seem that much more stressful.

Date: 2008-04-06 07:10 am (UTC)I hate when keys break in locks, it sucks soooo bad! It also tanks that Kieran's job is sucky, hopefully it'll get better soon.
I can't believe they never sent the comp part?! That is totally fucked up! I'd have reamed them a new asshole over that one. Sheesh. Hopefully you'll get it soon and you can be online again. I miss you something awful. *sigh*
It's hard to write with pen and paper. I like doing it, but I hate having to type everything into the comp, so I'd rather just type right on the comp. lol But keep plugging away at it, you'll get it.
Miss you something awful hun and I hope I get to catch you on sometime soon.

Date: 2008-04-06 05:29 pm (UTC)Yeah we had to buy a bolt cutter to get into our storage place. We now have a combination lock. Lol. Yeah, he volunteered for a really nice job and they shoved him on to a really shitty one instead. He's been moving sandbags the last couple of work days.
Yeah and they didn't call us to let us know that they hadn't, we've just been waiting for nothing. If it's not here by Friday you'd better believe I'm calling and giving them so much shit.
I miss you so much too!! I keep thinking, 'I'lll have to tell Kel about this' and then being sad because I can't. Like Davin taking more and more steps. And standing on my lap on the couch and leaning and grabbing the chair arm and swinging himself down.
Yeah, my style of writing with the constant changing things and adding things. It makes for a lot of erasing. However, I'm getting there. Almost done with my Sylar/Elle one and my Sylar/Adam one and working away at the second part of the Plaude one.
Cross your fingers for me being on later this weeks.

Date: 2008-04-06 05:38 pm (UTC)At least you were able to get the lock off, it would've been worse if you hadn't. And moving sandbags sucks! How long is he stuck doing that?
I'd be foaming at the mouth if they were supposed to have ordered it and hadn't, I think they should do something for you to make up for that stupidity. *grrrr*
Ohhhh! Davin's walking and talking more! Sweet! It's so fun when they start doing that. I miss my updates. Dammit all. He sounds like he's going to be a regular climbing monkey. lol Careful, they're the fearless kind and usually end up with the trips to the hospital. *grin*
I'm a big rewriter too. I found that if I at least jot down the outline of what I want to happen in the story, it helps keep the rest fresh in my mind to type up later. But that's when I can start typing within a few hours of writing it up. Sucks that you can't type anything up. Yay! for stories getting done. I know it's hard, but I can't wait to see them.
I'm crossing fingers, toes and eyes. lol

Date: 2008-04-06 05:51 pm (UTC)Yeah it would have been terrible. But it wasn't a big lock so it was able to be cut. He's on this duty until the end of the month. And dear god, it's going to be the longest month ever.
I understand there might have been a mix-up, they said they got the wrong serial number when Kieran ordered it. But if it happens again I'm calling them out on it. I know for a fact it's the right one this time.
Yeah, it's so cute, he takes the bittiest shuffling steps. Yeah, I'm planning on lots of trips to the ER, he's not afraid of doing something because it might hurt.
I don't like outlines because they are just as likely to change as the actual writing. I tend to just think of paragraphs and sentences all through-out the day and they can be for anywhere in the fic.
Lol, you must look rediculous.

Date: 2008-04-06 05:56 pm (UTC)Ugh! This is going to be a looooong month for him then, isn't it? He's going hurting by the end.
You'd think tho that they'd double check something like that. Sheesh. If they do screw up again, I'll make sure to watch the news and see if there's any mention of you going medieval on their asses. *giggle*
Awww, that does sound cute! I hope you're taking pics, I wanna see! lol Hopefully he'll be a rubber baby. The kind that bounces back quick. lol
I usually only use outlines just to remind myself how I want the story to go. When I start writing them, they don't always follow the outline I have planned out. *sigh* That's why I tend not to do that too often.
*grin* Yes, I look silly, but it's for a good cause. lol

Date: 2008-04-06 06:05 pm (UTC)Yeah, he's probably not going to be moving heavy bags all months. It's still a shitty duty though, esp. compared to the one he volunteered for that only had him going in once a day to check the people he was over.
Yeah, I really think they should have called us, let us know it was wrong. But it was no use yelling at the really helpful guy on the phone, it wasn't his fault.
No pics, our card is full and there's no computer to put the pics onto. And he's not walking consistantly enough to get a picture yet.
Yeah, I just have a general idea of where I want the fic to go and then let it dictate itself to me. Tempermental fics are the worst.
It is a good cause. *looks silly with you*
(no subject)
Date: 2008-04-06 06:16 pm (UTC)That's good that he's not having to move them all month, but that still sucks that he was supposed to do one job and got stuck doing a sucky one. So not fair, but what can he do?
They should've called, but you're right. No sense being mean to someone trying to help you. Don't want to be seen on customers_suck. *grin* At least he was willing to help you get it right this time.
Bummer! But that's ok tho, there'll be lots of chances to take pics once you can dl the camera. lol
That's kinda how mine go too. Speaking of which...I should get back to work on mine. *grin*
For a good cause, I'm willing to look as silly as need be. lol

Date: 2008-04-06 06:31 pm (UTC)He can't do anything, he's a marine. *giggles*
If there's a next time though, I won't even care. There will be hell raised and it won't bother me in the least bit.
Download, fix and hopefully order prints. Go me.
Yes you should. Work, lady, work!
Which is a good thing, since you're a mom.

Date: 2008-04-06 06:47 pm (UTC)Poor marine's, so screwed. lol That's what he get's tho.
I'd raise hell AND Caine if it ever happened again. And they'd deserve the severe tongue lashing they'd get too.
Yay! for pics to be printed. lol I really can't wait to see any you have to send me.
I am, I am. lol I actually had a bunny attack me last night for a possible sequel to "Two Worlds" so I'm going to start on that today. And try to work more on my Monte Cristo one.
lol Mom's have to learn to be silly, it's a pre-req. *giggle*

Date: 2008-04-06 06:52 pm (UTC)Indeed, like I like to point out to him when he whines, this is why I'm not a marine.
Indeed they deserve it. I might even go into Best Buy and give them hell too.
You will love the cuteness, let me assure you.
Yay for bunnies. I just wrote a couple of paragraphs each for my three main fics so I am pleased. And Seth gave me a bunny for Elle/West so I have a tiny bit of that worked on.
Sadly, this is my last message for the day, my time is up. I LOVE YOU!

Date: 2008-04-06 07:08 pm (UTC)You'll have to read Mac's post to know what's been going on with him. *sigh* I worry about that boy some days...
lol And why I'd never became a marine either. I'd be busted for snarking back all the time. *grin*
I don't like Best Buy, but there's not a lot of choices for big places that sell electronics. I'd give them an earful too.
*squee* Can't wait for teh cuteness! You know I love seeing pics of Davin, he's such a cutie!
Yay for more being written! Maybe by the time I talk to you next time, I might have at least one story for you to beta. *crosses fingers*
Awww man. At least we got to talk some. LOVE YOU BACK! Miss you hun.
