Okay, PROBLEM.

So what it is, is this.

I work 50 miles from where I live, which means driving 100 miles a day. Last night my car broke down about a mile from my work. I’m staying with a friend while the car is diagnosed, but my laptop is 40 miles away (with all the work I’ve done on my entry for this year’s cof_remix), and the originally scheduled posting day is tomorrow.

I might wind up being a little late.

That sucks. As does this, I also have a problem. My flash drive got broken and only the first third of my remix is on my laptop. I believe the finished version (or at least the print out of it) is back home but that's 250 miles away and I won't be back there until after the third. I could try to rewrite it in the next day or two while working around the holiday and helping my mother (who took a bad fall) or post the first third with a To Be Continued or just wait until I get back to Ohio. What would you like me to do.

That really sucks. But RL issues are more important than fanfic deadlines. Hope the car can be fixed cheaply and quickly.

I'm going to answer as The Other Person in charge and say: If you're comfortable doing so, post up the first third with a TBC, and then post the rest on the third. Losing stories to broken flash drives isn't fun!

That's a bummer!

Thanks. Yes, that's what I'm going to do. Honestly since work stuff was also lost I have to deal with that first but cleaning up the third that's on here will be easy to do and I'll only be about 10 days late with the rest. I appreciate the consideration!

It turned out to be QUITE cheap (compared to what I had been afraid I’d have to pay). The big thing was the temporary inconvenience.

Done now, though.
