frantic and snowblind

So I have hit the 55-hour-workweeks part of the year again and oh god why am I even bothering? I don't earn enough for it to be worth the money, and I have so many better things to be doing. This time last year was fine-ish because I was able to cut back at job a, which I can't really do right now because, having already officially quit, I am now covering for someone else who quit last week. Job b will be of much more use when it comes to finding work after I finally somehow move, so much as I hate D.M. it is currently less of a pointless grind. Besides, it's easier to write or study on the clock over there. (at some point this year I need to study business tax a little more than I already have, so hey).

I had yesterday off, and not knowing when I would next have an entire day off, I just let my fic id do whatever the hell it wanted with one of those late-night thoughts that should not have been worth the effort of sharing; almost 3.5k later, I am both amazed how fast & easily I can work when I stop pretending to be clever, and somewhat concerned that the ♠verse is now much like the d:eletionverse in that it is an AU that is essentially horrible but has nevertheless generated ABSURD amounts of sidefluff. (bite me, I was equally terrible on Christmas Day). Why do I always get ambushed by the comfort, WHY :( I did get some more useful stuff done on the ♠wreck while I was at work today, but it was slow and will probably need cutting as soon as this chapter develops any flow ever.
