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 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*

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.
