Unbearable Lightness of Queueing

I have two chapters in queues, on two archives. My mailbox, each time I check it, shows gaping emptiness. *Sigh* Someone "up there" evidently wants me to exercise patience. But I simply don't do patience. *Deep_sigh*
I should really use this time of waiting to a) practise limerick writing for the Potter_Place Challenge or b) continue writing the Exchange fic or c) Study grammar and punctuation rules.

Maybe I'll just take over the world TV and watch Immortal Beloved. Or Dogma.

LOL! You poor thing! I totally understand though. I have one story in a queue... all I'm waiting for is a letter telling me that it belongs on a different archive. (I'd like it on the archive that I uploaded it to, for several reasons mostly since I do eventually intend to write sequels and that will be where the series belongs, but as a stand-alone it's definately questionable and is likely more suited somewhere else.) But, nevertheless, I keep checking my inbox and the 'recently added' section of the archives. :)

For some reason, my husband thinks that I'm obsessed! *scoff*

Oh, but you could always argue your case, ya know! Especially if it's about what I think it's about. A little prod about an update and all that...
Husbands sometimes can be real thick. You could try get yours into writing fanfic, too. It helps, I'm telling ya.

LOL! My initial remark was to say 'there's no way that my husband would write fanfic', but I don't believe that. LOL!

He certainly wouldn't write HP. He's read a bit, but it's not 'his thing'. But my dad gave him a bunch of Star Wars books last year and hubby read them at Christmas time. (Imho, Star Wars books are the ultimate fanfiction.) Anyhow, after reading 7 of the New Jedi Order books he started saying "I could do this." and thought of a plot for a fic. Now, when I suggested 'fanfic' he scoffed. No way in hell he was doing this for free! LOL!

Oh man, hillarious.

Yes, I could argue my point, but first they have to make a decision about it. Or question me about it. It does qualify is you go solely on the point that there needs to be interaction... albeit brief. To me, it's iffy. I also don't mind having it uploaded to a different archive for now and then changing the category (b/c I think the new system will be around by then) when I upload the next piece.

Oh so very confusing. Either way it'll be alright. I truly don't mind, whatever they decide. :)
