Nights like this, I wish Nin didn't work nights. I like having company, especially on Friday, which always seems to be a long night. It's not like I don't have dozens of DVDs to watch, but it's not the same when you can't talk about it [g]
Yeah, I'm a lonely spinster [hangs head]
So I'm spinning my wheels. Should I start rewatching old TV series? Or clean the apartment? (that's not my favourite choice!) A movie? Spam my f'list?

I've been playing neopets. Yes, I'm into neopets. LOL
What I should be doing is maybe working on writing something, just to say I've written something, although I seem to have issues with even that. LOL
One thing is for sure--I'm sleeping late tomorrow. The monkeys can have bagels for breakfast. *g*

Date: 2007-05-19 03:25 am (UTC)From:What annoys me is writing and then people whining about not having anything to read, I toss something out and get completely ignored. I'm pretty much to the point where I don't give a damn if I ever write again or not, much less sell anything else, and I don't give a damn if anyone reads the trash that my brain comes up with or not. Writing just for me seems a waste of time when I can just think up whatever. Why bother with actually typing it out? *g*

Date: 2007-05-19 03:35 am (UTC)From:Now? I guess I just don't care. I'm wondering how bad I really suck as a writer for someone to have been so far off with interpreting a description of a character as she was, when the other few people who read what I'm referring to seemed to comprehend what I was attempting (pitifully, most obviously) to convey. (The few others who read it got that the description was a cross between Adrien Brody and Trent Reznor. The one person who didn't 'get' it and commented to me about said character said he reminded her of Hagrid. Hello, complete opposite much? *headdesk*)
M. Night Shamalyan was right. It's not the fact that you put 27 people in a theater and 26 of them find the movie acceptable. It's the one who didn't like something that you obsess over.
Then again, my writing may just suck that bad and shouldn't be inflicted upon anyone living or dead. LOL
Is Nin on any neopets comms on LJ? If you look at my profile, there's a few I lurk on. She might run across something useful there.
I'll quit whining now and go back to lurking on my flist. *g*
Hope you have a fun weekend!

I still get annoyed over a stupid comment I got on fanfic.net years ago! It wasn't constructive, it was just idiotic and proved the person didn't have reading comprehension skills.
I don't know if she is. I'll have to ask.
no subject
Date: 2007-05-19 04:03 am (UTC)From:Maybe I just got burned out on writing because I wrote so much for so long. I had days where I could easily crank out 20, 30, or even 40 pages a day. I did that for years. Then all this other stuff was going on and of course, because I'm the mom, it got put way down on the list of priorities. LOL
Yeah, idiotic comments which aren't constructive can be so annoying. I never really bothered with putting anything up on ffnet because of content issues and the TOS.
What I found amusing as hell one time was ten people who read a particular story that was original and almost 400 pages long. Nine of those people comprehended a certain part at the end and that things were not as they appeared to be. The one person who didn't seem to get it kept bombarding me with pissy comments about how that would NEVER happen because these characters were ____ and ___ and she was just appalled that I'd allowed this to happen, blah, blah, blah, yadda, yadda, yadda, ad nauseum. I called the person who had beta read it (She also happens to be VERY educated, and questioned her about this. (Keep in mind, this has been like three years ago.) I explained to her what had me spazzing out so bad about this stupid story and she told me that some people are just stupid and can't/won't/don't see what's in front of them in black and white and to ignore that person's rantage.)
Now here's the pisser.
Said freak who couldn't pay attention to what she was reading long enough to comprehend that things weren't as they appeared to be...turned out to be writing her own original fics and hoping to get published. *dies laughing*
And because I'm evil and pissy, to this day, I hope her stuff gets stuck at the bottom of every slush pile where she submits to and that it's used as a door stop at each place. Why? Because someone that fracking stupid just doesn't deserve to be published in the first place.
Yeah, I know--sick, sweet irony--my hoping that she never gets published is just exactly the thing probably preventing me from it were I to submit anything anywhere. LOL
Life is fun, ain't it? *g*

But see, even with the eyes, I was resisting the Laurie charms... and then I discovered he's also a musician. I have a massive huge horrible weakness for musicians.
That was it, I decided right then and there I had a massive pathetic 13 year old fan girl crush. LOL
