Extension

[clauderainsrm]

It was pointed out to me that people are still getting used to being over here on DW, and the notifications are, well, typical DW shoddiness.

So I'm going to extend the deadline until Thursday. So instead of being a "short week", it's going to be about a regular one (for this mini season at any rate)

It's one of the advantages for you of me working 70 hour weeks. :) I'm feeling more generous toward everyone else's schedules.

Enjoy the extra time.

If you got something in already, and you are happy with it - go read everyone else! If you haven't, you don't need to throw something together at last minute today.

I can't keep doing this. But you've been patient and understanding with me - so I'm trying to extend that same courtesy.

I feel conflicted! On balance, this is mostly good news, since I am very tired and this afternoon is the first time I've had to sit down and try to actually write mine, and it's always stressful to not even have the option to set an entry aside and return to it later if things are going poorly. I will still try to write mine this afternoon, but at least I can revisit it tomorrow or Tuesday if things go poorly, and that makes me happy.

On the other hand, I agree with the previously commented sentiment that I made life choices yesterday that I would not have made if I'd known I was going to have until Thursday, and that feels frustrating. I agree that I would much rather have the full week up front than find out after a few days that there's an extension. The original timeframe for this week was way too short for me because of where it fell in the week - weekends rarely have much time for me to write, and I didn't see the prompt until Thursday afternoon just before going to work. I've liked having a week to write not beause I need seven days, but because it means there's a window of time inside the seven days that fits into my schedule.

That's why I think a week to write up front makes sense to me, too - everyone has their own unique weekly schedules. Same with reading. For me, if there's a weekend included in the reading time, it's usually easier for me to get through the entries to read, because I work weekdays. Though I had other plans last Sunday, so that was more of a challenge.
