And here's where the paranoia kicks in...

Did my sub get lost in the mail? Did the response get lost in the mail? Did the sub fall behind the desk? Maybe the editors are sitting there, giggling so much at my temerity for daring to sub a piece of crap like that, that they haven't taken the time yet to send a "Heh. NO." ("OMG, look at this!" "I know! It's a train wreck of stunning proportions." "Worse than the dreck she usually sends us." "What was she thinking?" "HEY! That's my baby you guys are talking about!" "Well, lady, your baby's ugly.")

AAAAUUUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH.

I hate my brain. *beats it* Seriously, brain, if a market is taking longer than normal for a response, that's usually a good thing, because that means they're at least considering it. So stoppit. By the same token, don't get your hopes up. It's probably just the post office being its usual slow self.

Yes, I'm being deliberately vague here. Those in the know are aware of which market I'm talking about, and the rest of you probably don't care anyway.

I care! I wish I could offer something other than hugs.

I know you do. I'm just sitting here slowly driving myself crazy. Thanks.

(((Hugs))) I'm still waiting on an esub market I'm hoping for good news vs huge slush pile.

I'm not normally on pins and needles like this, but the story combined with the market just has me driving myself (and the Hubby) crazy.
