That feeling when you forget you put out a bid on an item and then it mysteriously shows up in your inventory after you've won causing you to go into a momentary panic thinking your account got hacked and then you remember, oh yeah, didn't I place a bid on that item? Because that's what happened to me today. I completely forgot about placing that bid on SDPlus #051 Lance until I was restocking my store and saw it just sitting there in my inventory and wondering where the heck it came from. It scared the living daylights out of me and I can promise you this is far from the first and only time this has happened.
I think I'm more susceptible to this kind of confusion because I mostly try to buy items directly. The exception is when I decide to bid on items from Flynn's Plunder and promptly forget about it unless I notice I've been outbid.
And once I got over the initial panic it was actually a pleasant little surprise. It's an item I actually really wanted so that makes me happy.

In a general sense I write when I feel like it about whatever interests me at that particular moment in time. Whether that means getting in character or writing about something serious depends entirely on my mood.
