Lesson: Are y'really gonna try Posting during Lunch?

Exasperated! Big mistake today -- almost -- trying to post to Protag from work, tho not after work, as I have done, when co-workers have gone and the quiet conducive to the exercise. Instead, during what should’ve been a quiet moment. Takes more than one moment to post any story!

I had sense enough to make the effort to ready my submission in advance, thru the morning fleshing it over from bits of plot and character‘s next move, but impatience got the upper hand.
I had it tapped into a Word doc. One of those workdays when lunchtime came late. Came at last the quiet moment, my lunch, and I committed.

Well. Phone calls. Warehouse calls. My post posted. Trying O’TRYING to read it thru! Checking. The very final edit. Of course it had to read right. Truck’s arrived and must be unloaded. One hour -- ONLY ONE HOUR remaining for any last edits! -- and I won’t be back any time soon.

Frustration - dot - dot - dot.

Snow over the weekend here -- latest snow on record for Vancouver, for mid-April, any-year. Yeah, sure sign of Global Warming.

Heavy wet snow bringing down green branches, and power-lines in some parts. So why shouldn't my phone-service go dead?

Frustrating, I'll admit, mainly because the dead phone-line killed for the weekend currently my only access to internet. Currently, I only have dial-up (Guess I've belly-ached that point a few times here). Ruined my weekend plans for my rather obsessive preoccupation these days with posting stories, or branches, to Protagonize.

Just the gamer in me needing -- no, wanting it (that's heathier!), my...um, session at recreational story posting.
