Memento Mori
That's just my mood now, I hate it came to this.
As of 4:17 PM on May 21st, 2010 I am starting a major campaign to get stuff caught up on here. There are PMs, guilds to work on, threads to reply in and all manner of random odds and ends to get caught up on as fast and as well as possible. That is the goal, at the moment: Get it done well but get it done fast, because there's a lot to do but not a ton of time to get it done in.

I am working on something off Gaia for the moment; will be back and replying to PMs first because those things are backed up in a painful way, then everything else as I hack my way through those.

A friend told me a long time ago that Gaia was supposed to be fun, not work; I should look forward to getting on to be on, not worrying about how many replies, PMs, and things there are to do. I guess it is just in my nature to do just that, though. I am always worried about making someone feel bad because I took too long to answer their PMs or post back in their thread.

That is just my nature.

    When I have an email I need to reply to I usually take a while to reply to it too. I don't think anyone is upset though. (: Whenever I think about my reply to a PM that doesn't go answered, I usually forget about the conversation in general. I don't think it needs to go answered though, not unless it was an IRL friend who doesn't reply (and, say, I haven't talked to him/her forever). Sometimes I'm annoyed with that but not very.

    I do tend to think that when people get replies from you, they aren't thinking, "God, it's about time!" I think they're probably just happy to hear from you. Anyone who really cares knows that you are a busy person and you juggle things. Anyone else who is being impatient is forgetting the world does not revolve around them and that other people have other stuff to do. You would be doing them a favor by letting them wait awhile for a reply. Maybe they will learn they are not the center of everything.

    If it makes you feel any better, I can say with confidence that you are not going to break anyone by not getting back to them right away. I know everyone works differently and you might work better under stress, but I can't help wanting to let you know that you are okay. Just keep doing what you can do as you can do it, keep moving on, and I'm sure that the world will not stop turning.
