I know that you're really busy with school and hp_dungeons but I had to hope that you'd participate after your last memorable response to a challenge. What ever happened to Ron and Snape, anyway? Will we ever hear more from them?
Okay. Now that I have that out of my system. I have two papers due this week. Loose ends to tie up at work. Big event at HP_Dungeons. Another paper to write this weekend. A novel to read for another class. Two literary critiques to write. A poem due TO-(fucking)-DAY that isn't written because I was busy writing another paper. I have to be early to my damn it this was supposed to be the easy one Art class and I'm cramming my homework in now for that because I made the mistake of SLEEPING last night, a mid-term exam next week, a short story due this Thursday that I haven't even started, a (late) character sketch due tonight that I won't have time to do and don't know how to print because the cable to my printer at home isn't working and I'm getting pestered for updates to Reunion, Snape Manor, Beg Me For It and I should never have joined HP_Dungeons because I really screwed up last week and DAMN IT NONONONONONONONONOOOOOO!!!! *hands over head... slight nervous break down.*
Oh, you poor thing. Believe me, I know all about procrastination and leaving things till the last minute, but - you sound more like you were just plain overworked from the start. Can anything be rearranged or prioritised?
For one thing, ignore all the fan fic requests. They're waited x amount of months, they can wait a few weeks more.
The short story - you can whip stuff up in your sleep. Same with the poem.
Is there anything that can be put off till later?
I realise that hp_dungeons is your fun down time, but can you postpone the event? (presumably, the Halloween ball?)
Grins. Thank you. Not a single one of these were put off, except the paper I'm writing tomorrow. Everything else is... right on schedule. I just got - jesus, I was whupped this weekend. There are a lot of things that are being added to the Syllabus' (Syllabii?) though I'm feeling better now that one of those projects is done.
Whoops. Did I freak out there a little? It's a good thing you're a friend.
Whoa. I've just taken on too much in my personal life and am just barely keeping up. I'm like this with everyone right now. If wilderness_guru asks me to pick a pick of lint off the floor, I get this 'wild-eyed' look that makes him duck into the next room.
Hee. We all react to stress differently. I'm sorry that I didn't realise how overburdened you are, or I would't have asked about the fest and panicked you.
