You can't fool Monday. You can stay home and pretend that Monday is passing you by, but come Tuesday, Monday will sneak up and punch you in the back of the head.

Yes, what Red said. I love three day weekends and HATE four day work weeks. I'm already eight hours behind and the day hasn't even started!

[QUOTE=mario_c;6516803]- Adam Sandler is developing a script with the SAME PREMISE. Just...kill me.
The only positive thing is the bi-er, beta reader who told me to give up writing Who tells someone to give up writing???? Seriously, bad day or not, that's just WRONG. The Adam Sandler thing happens a lot. It's like as soon as you put an idea out in the universe, it's available to anyone (in a metaphysical way). That's why I keep my ideas locked tightly away in my sphincter. It kinda reminds me of the time I got an idea for the Harlequin Next line, wrote the entire book, only to find out the line had gone defunct. And now I can't place the damn thing anywhere.

Ugh. So I've officially started the phd program at my uni. Just orientation so far but so far i've had 3 awkward conversations and 2 ppl I knew from last year totes snubbed me. :/
Okay, new approahc. IDGAF about any of them. I won't be a bitch - if people want to talk to me, then they can talk to me. But no more am I going out of my way to talk to people or to try to be friendly, because it always just comes off as awkward and desperate and they'll probably ignore me to talk to the people they know anyway. New school year, new r0ly, new attitude! As for publishing stuff.......lol *crickets.gif*.

Catwoman and Mario, that's why I make my ideas as unmarketable as possible. No one steals them.

You know, I've probably got about 300-400 Rs accumulated. I could start an R-a-day service if anyone likes by forwarding them on. Guarantee a different R in your inbox each day for a year.

Hmmm.... with our combined collection we could probably actually provide the form Rs from any agent our customers have queried...
