Dear Universe: I wish to register a complaint

[stgulik]

Thanks for all your good wishes yesterday. I could honestly feel them across the miles. Today I am almost back to my old self, hardly able to comprehend the thoughts chasing through my brain yesterday.

On the beta front, when it rains, it pours. A few weeks ago, one of my regular fanfic writers told me she would have a piece ready to edit in a while. So I thought, in the meantime, I'd answer a request on hp_betas to edit a new piece. That person didn't immediately send me her piece, so I signed up a second time on the beta site.

As you can guess, this is the week that all three pieces were emailed to me. O_o  

I can handle it and everything, but it's just ridiculous the way Life throws your responsibilities your way in fits and starts. Such a disorganized way to run a universe. I intend to write a strongly-worded letter.

The practical upshot of this is, if anybody wants to chat on Gmail the next few evenings, you know where I'll be. My handle is p.stgulik. Feel free!

I always heard "Murphy was an optimist," but I never understood it until recently. It means he was always positive everything would go wrong. And I should have been! But I guess I needed the stimulus of due dates to keep my evenings interesting.
