Not to worry, this is my first night shift in a while.

I haven't visited the forums at night in the last couple of days

What is confusing? 😛

I don't know!

Should straighten out that love triangle so it's a love line or something!

Yes, that's my big advice.
 
Ok, cliff notes for the thread so far:
I wrote 8 pages of a story. Each and every page sucked. I trashed it, and I'm starting over. I've gotten the titles down, nothing more.

There's issues with the woman I really like. The biggest issue is the fact she has a boyfriend. No solution, not going to worry about it.

There, no one should be confused.

Write her a poem? Woo her away off her feet!

 
it happens to me all the time.

my college professors grew to expect it. for 3/4 of the papers I wrote, I'd re-read it the night before, realize it was crap, and then start over (eventually turning in the paper a week late). they were usually cool with it, though, because they knew that when I eventually did deliver, it'd be quality work.

one professor let me extend a paper over summer break 😛

I don't do poetry, except for vulgar haikus. And she won't leave him, I know that. That's not an issue. I'm trying to gain the patience she tells me I need.

How did this turn into a YAGT? Damnit, I just want to whine about the 8 pages. :|

A bedtime story? Ooh ooh, let me get my pjs with the socks built in & get tucked into bed. 😛

It's being looked into. But that wasn't the point of the thread. 😛

Well, I'm obsessed with girls. Maybe that's why I asked you about it 😛

How long have you known her? How long have you liked her for?

Yeah, this isn't something I need to do. I'm usually ok with papers for school (if there is a deadline), but stuff I write for fun bugs the hell out of me.

One of the teachers I didn't get along with in high school loved reading my papers. I managed to insert enough humor into the subject of biology to keep the bitch entertained.

It's complicated. I've known her for 3 years, but couldn't like her for a while since she was the object of affection for my best friend. She didn't share his feelings. I found out I had feelings for her while plastered in a bar and... Well, whatever. It's fairly mutual, but she's... Something. Content isn't the right word, but maybe comfortable. It's complicated.

My confirmation class thought I was going to be a priest since I knew everything.
