holy jetpack sacred things

[aesc]

It occurred to me today (meaning, I happened across it on my flist) that anotheratlantis requires its fics to be done by the 15th of this month, instead of the 24th, as I had written down in my FICS WITH DEADLINES column of the STUFF THAT MUST BE FINISHED!!!!!! page in the Fic Moleskine.

The 24th was, apparently, a transposition error from the deadline for the atlantisbasics ficathon, which was the 24th of last month. (Which, in turn, I thought was due on the 15th of September.)

The lesson: NEVER try to be organized. It doesn't work, especially if you're aesc.

I was looking today because I was like "Oh, I should check off some of the things I've done" and was very happy that I still had three weeks or whatever until anotheratlantis, but then I was reading my flist and they said "less than two weeks until the deadline" and I thought, oh they've just miscounted.

But I know I'm terrible with numbers, so I went to the comm. to check.

I have written myself a post-it note! And stuck it on my bookshelf, or else I will never remember this.
