I suck

[lettered]

Apparently I no-show defaulted on Yuletide. I thought the deadline was the 23rd. I'd started a story but was unable to finish, so I was going to finish something else by tomorrow. Wow, I'm really doing everything on Earth wrong lately.

I feel so so bad for my requester; they were really nice.

Oh no! What a bummer. If it would make you feel better, you could still write them something before the 25th and post it as a treat for your recipient.

It sounds like life is generally being a pain. I'm sorry. *hugs*

I'm going to try to do that.

How's the apartment?

I reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally liked hanging out with you the other day. Let's do it again some time soon!

The apt is good, other than there's a noise issue wherein my neighbor overhead is an elderly man, presumably hard of hearing, who has his TV on all the time he is awake. And evidence suggests he has insomnia, too. I talked to management, but then I came home for the holidays, so. Fingers crossed on that.

We should totally hang out after I get back. Yes. :)

You're not doing everything on the Earth wrong.

But I'm sorry--that sucks.

I AM IT'S ALL WRONG

I defaulted today too. Everything is depressing and I can't make myself get up and pack to go home tomorrow.

[lettered]

omg this is exactly how I feel you should come visit and we could just loll around and be sad together forever.

[staranise]

That would be LOVELY.

I got mine in just under the wire and now I'm tired and blah for work. I swear you're not doing everything wrong. These things happen. What about giving them a tiny treat?

[lettered]

You're really nice. I'm glad you got yours done. I'm going to try to write them something even though I defaulted; their requests were just so sweet.

[flamebyrd]

Aww, that sucks. Deadlines are so easy to miss!

I second snickfic though - if you do manage to finish, post it anyway, they'll love a second fic.

[lettered]

Yes, this is a good idea!

[likeadeuce]

I think you can still post it as a treat, or wait and post it as an NYR and that will count as your participation for this year? I can't remember the details but if you want to finish and post there should be a way to do it.

[lettered]

I'm going to try to do this! Thanks!

Oh crap. I'm sorry to hear that. Tiered deadlines can be hard to remember. At least it sounds like you could still write your requester something small a little late? I started a festivid for my recipient that I couldn't finish, so I'm scrambling to try to get something else finished for them.

[lettered]

I am going to try to do something late! It would make me feel better, anyway.
