merlin hols and other random stuff

Mondays are exhausting in general, but yesterday was a dousy -.- (is dousy not a word? ppl say it--maybe not my generation--but I've heard it before. Maybe I'm horrible at spelling, idek)

My co-worker didn't show up AGAIN!!!! This is the fourth Monday he's called in sick and I've had to do all his work. When the newspaper s on deadline you can't just not get stuff turned in. My kind heart is about to run out of understanding and I'm going to start demanding asking them to give me his accounts, cus this is just freaking ridiculous. On the up side, him calling in sick means he's not there to bother me. *sigh*

Also had some drama at the dance studio. We have a new girl is awesome- I mean seriously awesome!!! But she's upset cus she feels like all the studio focus is on a different girl- who had always been one of our best dancers. So I had a straight forward talk with her that included me having to tip toe around subjects I couldn't talk about, but still reassure her that I don't play favorites. Which I don't. Everyone should have equal opportunity to shine and we're not a competition studio. I think we're good now, but man it was kinda crazy.

Watched the movie "Arthur" last night. It was HILARIOUS!! I highly recommend it. Super funny with just the right amount of plot and feel good ending. Go rent it if you haven't seen it yet!

And lastly...I STARTED MY MERLIN HOLS FIC!!!!! YAY!!!!!! Oh man, this is gonna take all the four weeks and be so ridiculously long, but I'm really excited about it *eek* =D

ugg sorry about your coworker, is your supervisor or anyone going to talk to him about how he keeps skipping Mondays? They totally should.

and yay for starting Merlin Holidays fic! I thought about mine last night a lot, haven't actually started writing though. but I'm getting excited about it. I'm trying to figure out a way to tell a long story but not have the fic actually be really really long. haha, is that possible?

If he does it one more time I'm going to talk to his boss about it. Cus I can't let myself be taken advantage of like that. *sigh* I just hate confrontation!!

I gave up on mine not being a long story. Pretty much resigned myself to pretending this is the Big Bang lol. But you can do a long story without making it long if you want. I was super lazy with my story Tragic Love. (not that I'm saying you're being lazy) It could have been a really long multi chapter story, but I'm scared of WIP's (I'll get over that one day I swear) so I just did a couple time jumps. Didn't write the filler stuff for the months between and summed it all up through narration. It's hard not to make it feel rushed, but it can be done.

hahha, I am being kinda lazy though, but also I just don't think I have time for a super long story. I'm kinda thinking through some different ways of doing it, because I don't want it to seem rushed, we'll see how it goes...
