Okay, okay, world, here's the thing.
I say: "Gee, this has not been my best weekend ever. I could really use something spontaneously nice happening to me, world! Like maybe finding something I'd lost! Or getting something I didn't think I could have!"
And then you, world, YOU say, "okay!"
In five, four, three, two-- now!
...
Now?
...
Now?
... well, it was worth a shot. :p
Will get around to the passel of replies I need to do and crosspost fic and such later. Right now, roar.
EDIT: ... wow, even doing my taxes failed because my W2 is apparently incorrect. So much for being a Responsible Adult today, too. _o_ /EDIT

But are you sure? I don't have mastery over time and space but I do have some clout in nerdish industries. I'm not opposed at all to doing something nice and material for you. =D

I ... suppose on a very selfish level, I just want to hear people say they like me and they don't think I'm a horrible/boring/untalented/replaceable person. XD;;; Which is super attention-whorey of me, so I'll just settle for people putting up with my bitching. o/;;

While I've never met you in-person I think that you are well-written and are extremely talented when it comes to telling a story. I have found myself watching stuff that I never would have known or cared about if you hadn't commented on how much you enjoyed it.
I haven't really introduced myself because I haven't had anything to say, not because I think you are uninteresting. Much like the story of the quiet child and the burned toast.
Life has it's ups and downs. You change and people change. It is a evolutionary imperative. But we also have the ability to accept change, even if we don't understand it.
Sometimes when I am having a rough day, I will take a deep breath and remind myself that; this too, shall pass. You're having a rough time. This will pass and life will move on. Sometimes good, sometimes not so good. But it will be okay.
It's alright to be frustrated with yourself. But when you are, accept it and do something nice for yourself or let someone do something nice for you. I like to take myself out to eat or buy myself chocolate from Godiva when I am down. It's the simple pleasures that can help us take a step back from our circumstances and then work towards change with new energy.
My advice is not perfect as it comes from my own experiences and not yours. But I'm sharing it with you because I care about you and I want you to know it.
It's your journal and life. If people don't care about it they don't have to read what you have to say. Don't restrict yourself for others benefits of others because keeping all of your pain inside is not healthy. If you write, then write it out. It's okay.
So please don't feel bad. Because I care and want to help you, in any way I can.

I know this is something that will pass -- I'm sort of counting on it, actually. *g* I know things'll get better and hopefully I can leave this entire cruddy weekend behind. XD; I just sort of feel bad dumping on folks, even friends or people who're there to listen -- it feels, on some level, like I'm backsliding and that is the LAST thing I want to do.
But thank you, seriously. :) It IS good to know people care, and I'm glad I don't bore you or anything, haha♥

I'm really sorry that your weekend was wretched--sometimes the universe just punches you and kicks sand in your face the face no matter what you do. Sadly I can't offer anything but cute pictures of baby seals and the like. Though if it helps, a lot of the time I wish I could be more like you. Um. *hides*

I'm ... feeling a BIT better by now, though this entire weekend has just really been sort of "ORZ FAIL" from pretty much Friday night on. XD;
... ♥♥♥ Thank you, ahahahaha;; I try to take things in stride, at least!

clearly that is your taxes way of saying "no no, what are you doing, doing your taxes in february? You need to wait until the last minute". >->
From:

Well, the thought process sort of went like this:
"I totally fail at people" --> "but at least I can do [xx]" --> "okay, no [xx], maybe I'll go buy [yy]?" --> "NO [YY] EITHER well okay" --> "I fail in massive ways for online/fun/personal things, I might as well buckle down and do the RESPONSIBLE ADULT THING and do my taxes."
And then. Taxes were also a no-go. .______.

[hugs] Thank you, I -- mostly just. Wanted to be told that I'm liked and not a complete failure and. You know. JUST TELL ME WHY YOU LIKE ME sort of thing. XD;; It's kind of self-centered, but you know.
Thank you for the offer, though♥♥♥
