Real/Internet Life Bitching

Nov 03, 2006 05:46

I am so fucking tired of getting blown off. I'm beginning to wonder if I have 'SUCKER Overly Nice Person, Please Walk All Over' written across my chest or something. I have a project partner who is nice enough most of the time but consistantly shows up 15 to 25 minutes late when we're supposed to work together and someone on the internet who's owed ( Read more... )

? Um... I totally wasn't talking about you. I wasn't even thinking about you. You've already written me... what, like 16,000 words of fic? Anything after the first chapter is just icing on a very big, very tasty cake. You don't owe me anything by this point. You're just writing me Threads because you're made of awesome. I just bitch at you about it because I like awesome. That's all.

Oh I know, but I was initially going to post a rant about "OMG that's *awful*, 15 months OMG I'da killed sommat by then!", but then it occured to me that I can't really point any fingers since I'm not exactly the Misstress of the Timely Update myself.

*patpats* I write it because it's too much fun, it's a challenge, and it's eating my brain, but also because I know at least one person really, really likes it. ^___^

Oh man! I know what you mean about the project partner. Over the summer I had to take an Ethics class so that I had some more credit hours, and I was in a group of (I think) 6, and only 3 of us did any work. And even then, the class overlapped with my fall term so it was even harder to get them to work, and the chick we chose to be the person to put all of our work together just left the country ( ... )

GROUP PROJECTS COME FROM HELL. D: I'm awful with them, which is why... I work alone! OOOH, LONER CHILD. :|

On the other hand, kind of 'ow' about the fifteen-months thing, but I know what that's like. I'm usually on the guilty end, unfortunately.
