I discovered today that it is very possible to be quite pleased and quite annoyed at the same damn time.
Things I am happy about:
- Someone on Everything2.com gave me props on a writeup I did on stupid drunk people.
- I learned to French braid today.
- My kitchen table is very clean.
- I have lots of friends.
- Jeaux and I came up with a very funny idea for a comic book called Ace of Spades.
- I just sent out 30 promising query letters to editors who could hire me for freelance editing work.
- I have spent a whole day without talking to a human being.
- I am clean.
- My writing kicks ass!
- I have been in perfect health for over two years.
- It is my day off.
Things I am sad about:
- Someone on Everything2.com dissed me on a writeup I did on stupid drunk people.
- I'm not very good at French braiding.
- My toilet and the rest of my kitchen are disgusting, like when JW lived with me.
- I feel like wanting a day alone means I'm ignoring all my friends and they are pissed.
- I have not come up with character sketches for Ace of Spades and I suck alarmingly at drawing.
- Nobody's hired me for editing in a long time.
- I have spent a whole day without talking to a human being.
- I will not be clean for very long. I hate taking showers.
- My writing isn't published. And probably won't be for a long time, if at all.
- I need to go to the dentist and the eye doctor for a checkup and new contact lenses, and I don't have enough money to do that.
- I have to go to work tomorrow.
YAY! Dammit.
Notes:
I wrote something similiar the other day, how come good news never seems to come without bad news. Do you have any copies or things that you wrote on Word etc. I would be interested in reading how you write. I am no expert that is for sure, I am however a person who likes to read and I think I know good writing when I see it. Of course I would understand if you don't like to give that stuff out.

The yin/yang! Go Ivy ^____^ I just read your email by the way, and will be replying shortly.
At least you have some *good* things going on in your life. It sorta makes the bad worth it - or it makes the bad stuff seem less...bad. Yup, I can't think of any other adjectives. Come to think of it, I don't rememember what the basic definitions for adjectives and verbs are....describing something.. [katqueen]
