Rant: I can't take LJ much longer
Sep. 20th, 2011 10:21 pmI am seriously considering moving my journal and all of my fics to WordPress. It's been a couple months since LJ rolled out this new editor and it's still a big pain in the ass.
I'm afraid to write anything—don't even get me started on editing—because this damn platform has eaten whole posts alread. My master fic list? Gone. My 100 fic table? Gone.
I really don't need this. LJ, get off your ass and fix your problematic code.

Rant: I've Gotta Get Outta Here
Oct. 25th, 2010 11:08 amI'm so fucking frustrated that I have no one around to talk to.
I'm mad I have no other place to post this than on Live Journal, because I had to go and attach my real name every place else (Twitter, Word Press/personal website, Facebook).
I'm discouraged that I've completed nearly two dozen job applications and gotten barely a word back.
I'm depressed because all of my family and friends are at least eight hours away.
I'm disgusted by this city, the lack of anything in it and the rude people who live here. I want to get out of this place so badly, but nothing I do works. I didn't get enough grant money to be able to afford to go back and get my masters. I can't get anybody to contact me back after applying to jobs. And I can't figure out if it's worse to be unemployed and live in a city I can actually stand than it is to stay employed in a city that makes me feel so awful. I'm sick of this job. I'm sick of living in a city that always stinks. I'm sick of the lax attitude my co-workers seem to have about the job.
I'm so tired of scouring job boards and websites for a damn job opportunity.
I'm sad that I probably won't be able to do NaNoWrMon because I'm so busy writing stupid cover letters and letters of inquiry. I haven't written anything in over two months because I have no motivation because I'm so angry by my situation.
And I have absolutely no idea what to do about any of it. I can't move back in with my mother, no matter what she says. And I have to stay employed; I have too many bills. I feel like I'm just spinning my wheels and going absolutely no where. I cannot tolerate the idea of another year here, but it seems inevitable.

Rant: Livejournal Theme
Sep. 18th, 2010 02:23 amI just spent two weeks trying to figure out how to change the style of my journal only to learn I had downloaded the wrong theme. I is dumb.
I'd like tweak it a little more, but you have to pay. I already pay for internet space, at www.myrealnamehere.com. I'm not paying for something on LJ's servers. =/ Oh well.
