Crapity crap crap

Why did I only give myself 5 days before announcing winners at the SunnyD Awards? When I went to check the dates at the site to see how I was doing on time I discovered that I said winners were to be announded on February 11th. Obviously, they're gonna be late. I just finished tallying all of the votes today. Still need to make templates and do the new layout.

And before anyone offers to help, thank you, but I'll be fine. I have a system for making the awards once I get the template set up and it should go pretty quickly. The next round is a character I already have tons of photos of, so I just need to choose the ones I want to use and crop them, then pick a new (similar - because I'm not going to change the homepage header) color scheme. I'm a control freak and don't delegate well.

This means that I will probably be in hiding this week. Half the reason I got little done last week was that I was reading and/or chatting when I got home from work/Curves. Work was insanely busy last week due to Andrea leaving and then getting our accounts for next week's job fair dropped on our desks on Thursday. We didn't even have a whole week to get used to the additional work before even more was handed out. And this time there were only two of us to split the job fair accounts. Good thing it's the smallest one we've had in a long time.

But this means that I'll be really busy at work all week, so I can't read during the day. Plus, I'll be out of the office all day working at the job fair on Tuesday. So reading will have to be done at night, after working on SunnyD. I'll most likely fall behind, so you've been warned. I probably will do even less commenting on LJs than normal, too.

I will be posting a couple of fics though. My story for the No Pressure Giles Ficathon is "due" on Wednesday, but it's finished. I then plagerized it and turned it into a Paire fic, which will also be posted this week around Valentine's Day.

I am sure we can all be patient. I look forward to seeing that fic you have lined up for the Giles ficathon.

I think this is the first time I've had to push back the winners. I suppose that I could just post a winners list, but it's more fun if the banners are posted at the same time.

It's up to you. Yes, we're all curious, I'm sure. But I think whatever you decide will be just fine.

And that sounded more equivocal than I meant it to, that's a fact. Sorry!

What I meant was that I think waiting is just fine. I think you've been working damn hard and that you absolutely should do what you think is best!

Thank you! I'll be working on them all day today, so the confidence boost helps.

Sending you some extra time. *Well, at least the thought counts, right?*

Try to stay sane while being so busy.

::hugs:: Thank you. I actually managed to finish all of the awards plaques today. Now I just need to fix the layout and get the awards uploaded to the site.

Monday's pretty much a wash for getting stuff done since I generally don't get home before 7:30pm, need to eat, then turn everything off during Heroes from 9-10. I do have my priorities.
