1. You'n me both.
I really need to get to sleep so I can wake up tomorrow.

Curse my frail human brain that needs sleep every planetary rotation.

2. Pfft, I can sleep after class tomorrow morning.
Class, nap, horseback riding, nap, class work, sleep. Rinse, repeat.

3. Yeah, I've got class, class, hour and a half break that I should use to finish my
short story for my night class, another class, 3 hour break that I should use to finish writing my paper, class... oh. I guess I don't have time to nap. Unless I finish my short story a lot quicker than I think I will. :P

4. Oh hay

And distracting myself by re-watching Gundam 00 season 1

5. Yeah, I distracted my brain by playing an RPG I'd already beaten numerous times before.
:P

I think I've got a good handle on how to finish the story though. It'll be a little weird, because instead of continuing on from where I finished my original story, I'm going to be interjecting flashbacks through it every other paragraph or so. But I think it'll work.

6. Cool
Mine's kind of difficult, because it takes place in a world I know very well inside my mind. So I have to explain how things work there, without overloading the exposition, and without taking away from the narrative.

Oh, and it has werewolves :D

10. Yep, I've been there.
Not so much with the werewolves, I haven't written much with them. But I understand that trying to explain your world bit. Unfortunately a good deal usually ends up being left out simply because it doesn't advance the story.

8. Good luck on the interview
I've only got conservation biology tomorrow morning, then I have a few hours off before horseback riding. I'll fit sleep in there somewhere :D
