The usual lack of time. . .
Working two much. Learning too much. Somehow, I've managed to find time to do everything that is necessary. Unfortuntately, this leaves barely any time for extras, which means leisure activities--namely, my participation in this forum--must suffer. I feel terrible that I'm rarely able to offer the in-depth critiques I used to give. Instead, I post in other areas of the forum, a bunch of smaller posts which are of little use to anyone. It's better than sinking out of this place forever.

I can tell from your spelling that you're having a hectic time of it. Find time in your day to sit down, relax and have a meditative pipe. If something else intervenes, then simply secret the pipe amidst your beard while nodding and smiling. Works for me. And no, I don't have a beard either.

 *gapes at the horrible spelling error in the first sentence*
Just how did THAT happen?! I'd edit it away, but now that you've mentioned it, that would be cheating.
Currently, my meditative time is when I get home at 11:00 pm. Unfortunately, this is a little impractical, since I get up at 6 the next morning.
*feels the need for an eye-twitching emoticon*

Yeah, I feel the same way. Finals, final papers, grading finals (I work as a TA), and moving out of the dorms. Lots to do. I wish I could read and critique every story posted here (not to mention actually do some of my own writing to post), but I just don't have the energy or the time for that these days.

Man you all sound old and depressed 
No offence meant...
You should lighten up 
Just wait, it'll be worth it. Just be patient and wait for a slot of time you're free and then make the most of it. I wouldn't know, I'm barely past 14 but I think it'd help.
Don't tr and make time for yourself, it'll only make you even more frustrated.
Wait...
