Every day before today - "I'm a bit too busy, eh, I guess I'll skip it this time."

Today - "Oh, what the heck, let's do this, I've got an idea. ... Why do I have so little time? ... And why do I already have a working x-thousand word story within three hours that I'm proud of?"

One way or another, I'm sending this in tonight. Hahaha.

Edit: Gosh, I could have picked a better title. Like, actually think of one before the text is done... XD


Dammit, why do you get the sudden bout of insanity that leaves you with a big entry that everyone loves this time?

Uh oh.

Is that contagious? Because now I want to finish my story. I shouldn't try. I need way more time. I haven't even gotten to the bit where I go on a rant about nukes, or even the bit where everything goes all-out WWII.

And everything going WWII is supposed to be the first thing to happen in my stories.

Posting from a phone here. I just got home and discovered my computer has been 'borrowed' by an associate.

I've already called them and told them to get back with it immediately, or at least send me an email with my story in it, but they haven't gotten back to me yet.

Hopefully this is just a false alarm. In the future, I'll be sure not to put off actually submitting the story.

And yes, @RomanAria, you get to say you told me so.

Ok yeah, I'm not entirely up on timezones but I'm pretty sure it's Midnight for most of Flagland now, and I still haven't heard back. I think it's fairly safe to say it's not going to happen.

I will gracefully concede. I'll send the completed story to anybody who wants to read it after the contest is over (don't want to distract everyone from entries that were actually submitted on time).

I suppose the offchance exists that I might miraculously get the story emailed to me with seconds left on the clock, but I'm not holding my breath on that.

Make sure you keep tabs on the sub -- if the vote thread hasn't been posted yet then technically there's still a chance.

There. threw in our entry.

Its not as good as we'd hoped for, but it could be worse.

We'd meant to make it longer, but we got derailed into many other texts and our RPs. And books. And food.

Oh, and a black hole.

It's not Murphy's Fault here, it's mine. I've been sitting on the story for days and could have turned it in anytime. Nobody to blame but myself here for deciding to wait until the last day (for essentially no reason I might add).

Well. Also the TREACHEROUS ACCOMPLICE who decided to borrow my laptop, but mostly me. I should have known something like this could/can happen. Stuff like this does happen all the time in contests. If not me, it's usually somebody else.

So yeah, the Aesop here is: IF THE COOKIES ARE READY, EAT THEM IMMEDIATELY. OTHERWISE SOMEBODY ELSE WILL.
