You *** do *** have writing skills, otherwise people would just skip your 
posts and never answer them (even if it's just for snarking). You know how 
to tell stories and make them interesting, even ones based on really dull 
material. The self-pitying angle comes off pretty well and is somehow 
endearing (when it could be horribly annoying), in some Woody Allenesque 
way. Also your spelling isn't bad, except for some occasional glaring 
lapses. What you may lack is better material to work with and some literary 
background to give you inspiration and pointers, but otherwise what your 
write is enjoyable.
