First World Problems
Today was pretty much the epitome of them, so I won't bore anyone with the details. I've spent a lot of time musing on the difficulties of communicating in a 100% text environment, along with the conflicting urges of "apologize again to make things better" and "yell back even louder to be the one who wins." Will likely just leave it at a stalemate.
LIMS motto: Make the exact same icon as everyone else, and you will succeed. (Yes, being voted out this early did hurt my feelings for real, and yes, I am bitter about it.)
Also, re: writing 10 pages a day for a solid week? So far we're at 4 pages over 2 days, so suffice it to say that's probably not going to happen, hee. It didn't help that I struggled for a solid hour on how to write a single scene and came up with the brilliant solution of "that scene sucks just don't write it."
Of course, it doesn't help that after working an eight-hour day, I come home to work some more. Being able to work at home and in my jammies notwithstanding, a second job is still a second job. I definitely need the money, but boo, today is not the day.
To end on a less woe-emo note, Fiona Apple is playing in Kansas City, MO on July, 17. My sister has already said she won't go with me, so now I'm trying to find someone else to go. But if I don't? Gonna see her by myself, because Fiona is queen. I'm already pre-excited about the concert.
Also, I got three compliments on my nails today and one on my hair, so that made me feel marginally better. :)
Now to eat some Easter candy while I make dinner, eat my dinner while I do twenty minutes of internet things, then back to work.

What is LIMS exactly, and who wouldn't like your icons??
The last episodes of S1 of Heroes were quite good! I even liked the beginning of S2 so far. I gather it goes off the rails, but it's fun so far.
Sometimes the scene just does suck and is better off not written. 10 pages a day would be awesome. I squeezed out a few hundred words last night and was terribly glad to just get that much done.
Feel better. What's your favorite Easter candy?

LIMS = last icon maker standing.
The end of S1 of Heroes is just really great TV. S2 is shaky but I think has some really good stuff and straightens out at the end. S3 goes off the rails and then there are three or four really good episodes and I got very hopeful...and then boom. I didn't watch S4 but apparently it was a hot mess.
My favorite Easter candy seems to change each year. Last year I was all about jelly beans. This year I'm really digging the plain M&Ms.
