Very Important Question

[brigdh]

Okay, someone explain the | thing to me. Why do you have to invent new slang while I'm not around to learn it, LJ?

Also, I'm surprised by how much I want to write a story, any story, though that's rather hard at the moment, since I don't have a working computer of my own (plus, you know, no time, but if I'm willing to make pointless LJ posts while I'm pretending to be working, I'm sure I could suspend my morals long enough to do so for fic also).

And, oh my god, I want some new music so badly. I'm just not sure if downloading music onto a public computer would be a good idea, even if I was careful to delete it immediately afterwards.

Or at least not uninteresting angst.

You're too kind. And I totally mean that, because I find it sadly dull as angst, and if my angst bores me, how am I to think that anyone else will be less bored with it?

But no: it's not as bad as all that. I don't really have to do anything, and I've decided I'm pretty much not going to -- they were just offering me the opportunity. Which meant I had to actively think about it and decide it wasn't worth my time and misery, as opposed to being blissfully unaware of the entire thing. Of course, I should stop and think about it all later, when this is over (assuming it isn't a total disaster): Serious People take steps to make themselves visible to the public, and it does matter. Only, I hate the very thought.

I don't have to think about it now, though, and I won't have to again for at least another few weeks. Thank God, thank God. I'm still panicked, but I'm doing it so much more cheerfully now.

It's only boring to you because you've been doing it for so long; it's all fascinating and new to me.

I'm glad the crisis is at least temporarily averted. The horror of advertising should wait at least until after all the business of getting ready for a show. Is it soon, then? And are you at all excited, or is it just nervousness and panic for now?
