sleeping dogs, and how one ought not to disturb them.

You ever have one of those days where you decide you hate present tense, and go and revise 10,000 words into past tense, and then you run into a paragraph that stubbornly refuses to be tense-changed or otherwise reworded, and maybe present tense isn't so bad after all, and you still have the original version, but you changed other things too, and you really don't want to fix it all, even with the handy-dandy revision history? Okay, maybe not a day precisely like that, but you know...

I sort of want to chuck it all and go write that comic-ignoring post-movie Remy/Logan porn that I only have the opening sentence of.

I have done that more times than I can count.

And I am torn between being sympathetic and supportive and being the devil on your shoulder.

Well, I got to the next section, and it was was hella lazy writing that I don't feel like fixing, so, on to the porn!

After I find a Gambit icon.

I SUPPORT THIS REMY/LOGAN!

And not just because I know EXACTLY how you feel about the tense thing.

[healingmirth]

to plot, or not to plot, that is the question. I am long overdue for something that won't fit in a comment-box. Of course, the comment boxes are much larger now.

I am having that sort of day right now.

Except, you know, with Perl code and time formats instead of fiction and tense, but close enough.

Wow, I sort of prefer my bad days to yours. Coding and I had a brief and horrible collision in CS1, and I've got nothing for admiration for people who have the patience for learning how to make machines do things. I had enough trouble learning other spoken languages in school, when I was already familiar with how sentences worked. Hopefully it got better!
