Aaargh!

[devi]

Aaargh the first was bad enough: I have 4,500 words to write by midnight tonight. I was quite laid-back about it until I realised I can't sit up doing it till 3am as usual because November ends at midnight!

But then Aargh the Second hit: I have to send the manuscript in by midnight to be validated if I am to claim to be a Winner. The manuscript is on my laptop, which is not on the net!

Er, please can I come round someone's house where there's wireless internet, at about 11pm tonight? I won't need to stay long or distract you with socialising, just send the thing off, go 'yay' and go away again.

Ah. Edit: I am a muppet and have just noticed the large stack of recordable CDs near the computer. Wireless net not required after all. Phew.

Edit 2, 9pm: 2,250 words done. Halfway there...

Edit 3, 10.40: 1000 more to go argh shoulders hurt tired must drink more sherry argh

Just remember it takes time to burn a CD (not much - but some).

Good luck!!

Answer in an email (the lj one works) and when you have time - but it struck me today that I might be able to get you some part time work. It depends on your qualifications - EFL might well be OK, experience might well be relevant. If you want. Email me. Please.
