Augggh! Timelines!
Keeping them straight! Multiple characters, multiple events, multiple locations ... even with a chart, it's ... aaauuuggghhh!
Thank you. Goodnight, America, and all the ships at sea.

The sad thing is that this particular time line has no timey-wimeyness in it, in the least; just a central group of characters who've been split up by circumstance, and a non-planning author who got too far along with one character, and now has to check to see where the hell the others are, and how realistic it is to delay some of the first character's events to allow the narrative to catch up - believably - yada-yada. Sigh.
I wish you luck in wielding writer's turpentine to clear a path out of your particular corner!
Scuse me...I have an appointment with a tall building. There is no more hope for me. Carry on, bb...
Heh.
I like you.
