Yet more grumpiness

[MsFish]

My mom just called saying that it was cold in Reno and I should come prepared... it's 40 F in Reno.

My mom's the same way.  I'll go home and she'll pick me up from the airport dressed for the Artic.  It'll be like 50 degrees.  She doesn't understand cold.  

[Faster Master St. Pastor]

I'm grumpy because I fell asleep early and just woke up about fifteen minutes ago, so I'm going to have one really horrid time getting to bed tonight.

My mom's the same way.  I'll go home and she'll pick me up from the airport dressed for the Artic.  It'll be like 50 degrees.  She doesn't understand cold.  

And this is why we live here, and our moms live 800 or so miles away.

Why is everyone's mom like that? I wonder if I will be like that when I'm a mom.

[Oldie Black Witch]

It's inevitable.

"Mom's cold! Put on a sweater!" --my Dad

"It's cold, boys! Put on your thermals!"-- Me

(In my defense, however, I think temperatures in the teens qualifies as cold. And Fishletoe can vouch for how cold it's been in my apartment.)

[The Jade Knight]

I'm grumpy because getting back into BYU is taking a lot out of me.

I'm green for evening classes Winter Semester.  Now I just need to get an Ecclesiastical Endorsement for Spring and cross my fingers . . .

I just read the FAQ, and it is false advertisement. Members break the rules all over the place.

[Shrain]

Ah, yes. Funny how that is.
If I were to offer up a theory, it would go something like this: once you've been proven truly worthy to be a member of the TWG's inner circle, -then- and only then may you break the forum rules at your leisure. Rumor has it that this coveted status involves undergoing some particularly grueling trials. You know, sharp implements, mind probes, isolation, raging infernos, blood tests, food and sleep deprivation--the works.
Alas, not being of the inner circle, I can't confirm any of these rumors.

You're absolutely correct.

[Chimera]

I'm in my "frustrated with my story" mood. My characters hate me and I hate them. I don't think I'm going to have the first half of my book finished by the end of the year (i.e. the end of this month) like I planned. Grr.

However, despite the temptation, I'm not going to give up. Writing keeps me sane.

[Lightning Eater]

My characters hate me and I hate them.

Then why not just kill some of them?

[Chimera]

I do. But I can't kill off my main characters. Yet.

[Shrain]

You're absolutely correct.

Ahhh. I knew it!
So I suppose we outsiders just have to hang in there, dreaming longingly, in the meantime, of mind probes, isolation, food deprivation, and the like.
