Trying not to fall asleep in this uncomfortable chair

[ultranos]

Hi, yes, I am in fact alive. Last week was midterms, so of course I was sick but plowed through it anyway. However, I paid for it this week. On the other hand, the shirt I'm wearing today makes me all kinds of happy. It...kinda sums up my life, sometimes.

So, I've been stressed the last two weeks, mostly due to real life and school. A lot of the things I used to do for de-stressing aren't applicable right now, because I absolutely need my de-stressing time to be free-form and flexible, otherwise it's not de-stressing (unsressing?). Which means all but one of the tabletops I'm in have sort of fallen off to the side, and I haven't LARPed since January.

The upshot of all this, though, is that I'm becoming more and more convinced I need to write more things in order to destress, because the characters are doing crazy shennanigans in my head. (Yes, even the snake.) And it's fun, because I'm telling myself stories, and I feel like I should share them.

...okay, all of this was to justify to myself that I could write fic right now instead of doing the two homework assignments that are due tomorrow. Hey, less than 3.5 hours of sleep puts me in the right mindset to tackle RepliCarter again, right?

Aw, you got the shirt! HEE!

*HUGS* again. You are still really brave and really awesome and all that jazz. Yay for surviving the last two weeks.

Also, yay writing (and of course the snake is causing shenanigans) and YES you CAN write fic and yes sleep dep is just right (how terrifying is that?)

*HUGS*

(me, however? I really need to finish the homework that's due in 2 hours. Ugh.)

I did get the shirt! It's little paper mans ON FIRE. How could I resist? :)

Aw. Yeah, I'm hoping things will get better? Soon? (I didn't entirely fail my circuits test! I was a few points off from a standard dev off the mean. And I would have been within a standard dev if I'd not screwed up the last problem by forgetting circuits are entirely backwards about defining power)

I really, really want to finish the RepliCarter fic. The first draft's been sitting there for months, and I just have to do the editing. (Of course the snake is causing shenanigans. So is the little OC that could.)

*hugs back*

Yay shirt!

I MISS PEOPLE OMG. And I have to wait until tomorrow to hang out online for an obscene amount of hours due to a work thing tonight.

Good luck with Replicarter and your homework.
