Bryan: "I've got some good news, boyo. I've found a fourth roommate so that'll drop the rent down."
Myself: "Killer.
Bryan: "So you'll have the money by next month, right?"
Myself: "Of course."
Bryan: "So you're working again?"
Myself: "I'm always working."
Bryan: "How did you get a job so quickly in our tow-.. (Gives a suspicious, leering eye) What exactly are you doing?"
Myself: "I'm fighting the good fight."
Bryan: "There are a lot of 'good fights'. Which one are you referring to?"
Myself: "Depression."
Bryan: "... people take meds for depression."
Myself: "YES! But no meds for depression induced by lack of love."
Bryan: "..."
Myself: "Stop looking at me like that."
Bryan: "You're not pimping out of our house."
Myself: "We must take to the streets and fight this tyranny!"
Bryan: "You are NOT going to take to the streets and battle depression with whores and hussys! You've already gotten me blacklisted from our old town's Pathmark with your 'sodomizing gophers' rant."
Myself: "Oh, I'm sorry. I figured being in AMERICA we'd have some breathing room on expressing personal freedoms and what can and can not be done to disgraced congressmen by the enraged public."
Bryan: "You can. Just not in the frozen food aisle, apparently."
Myself: "We should bring lynching back."
Bryan: "I hardly see the connection to your money situation."
Myself: "I could loot the body! Do I have to hold your hand and explain everything?"
I'll be transferring to a college in South Jersey soon and as coincidence would have it, one of my oldest friends and his mate have a vacancy in their home which has been extended in offering to yours truly although at the time I was in full stride.
Now, however I am not in full stride. A week after the offer I hit a bit of a stumbling block. This block in question was a curse as it has caused by flailing body to stumble head-long out of a ten story high building's window. Glass shattered, nasty stain on the pavement. Beautiful disaster as a whole.
However now I've fallen into a fantastic temp job until something better comes along to feed the funds. I'll still be attending my first con this summer and once the move is complete I'll be able to produce much more. However the problem is I have two separate versions of the same story and I can not decide whether to proceed from the first person perspective or third. It doesn't sound like a big deal, I'm sure but I've been racking my brain for the past three days of how to move forward.
By next Friday I'm sure I'll have something to show for it.
... Hell. ._.
Random thought: We all know how GLORIOUS a Temper-pedic mattress is. Apparently it's a godsend. But they don't say anything about how it might enhance the experience of the horizontal monster-mash. Fill me in here. I'm curious. I want to learn.

i see your questioning the perspective of the story. i know how much of a difference thats makes to a story. in my opinion, if you make it 1st person, it will show most of one side of the story. it will focus mostly on the 'main character'. if you make it 3rd person, then it will show both complete sides of the story. it may have more detail though what each character is experiencing. that is a tough decision, without a doubt. good luck and i hope you figure it out. :D
PS: we should totally write a story together! hehe
I plan on doing separate short-stories again for the characters at the turning point (or second-season) of the story to give the reader an update on how each character might have changed their way of handling situations from their original intro chapters as they will be older and certain events have occurred.
So. Yeah. Back on the train and writing again tonight. And yeah, we should totally collaborate on a story to see how it would turn out. :3
