in which ashley shows her colors (specifically, green)
When I retrieved the mail yesterday, I was extremely distressed by an invitation I found in there for a community event. Normally these happenings are harmless in their mediocrity. However, this one has to be one of the stupidest ideas I've ever heard (and when one is an R.A. for three years, one sees a lot of stupidity, believe me). It's for a ( Read more... ) -
in which ashley extends an open invitation
So, darlings-- as you might have noticed, I turned 23 on September 14. And since the lovely Linzy has hinted that if I don't do something about my birthday, she will.. I'm "organizing" something. It's less a party than it is an excuse to get out of a party. Woo!
This weekend at Rennfest is Pirate Adventure Weekend. So I'm gathering a herd ( ( Read more... ) -
in which ashley is disappointed in palin
Apparently the e-mail account that Sarah Palin, the Republican VP candidate, used for Governor business was hacked into. She used Yahoo! mail. And apparently several e-mails were "stolen ( Read more... ) -
in which ashley is a virus hunter

This, however, was a problem-- Sarah's computer can't read DVDs. ( Read more... ) -
in which ashley rocks her ghetto alternative to Wii Fit
So, being one of roughly three people who call themselves "gamers" yet have actually to touch (let alone own) a Wii and Wii Fit, and getting a complex from all the people who really weren't that fluffy to begin with talking about how their BMI is, like, three, or something-- I decided to take matters into my own hands ( Read more... ) -
in which ashley gives a first impression of LogJam
LogJam is a cute little Linux (and possibly other OSes?) client for LJ, and presumably any other journal site built on the openjournal framework (or whatever the hell they're calling it now). It's tiny in a few senses-- there's literally not much more than a textbox and spaces for tags, music, mood, and other things to be entered (basically every ( Read more... ) -
in which ashley returns... again
Yep, I'm here. And not dead. Partially because I wanted to keep in touch with people who mainly use livejournal, and partially because I figured out how to log in (for some reason, there's this really bizarre glitch that either won't let me log in with the "remember me" box clicked, or when using a saved password auto-filled by Firefox ( Read more... ) -
in which ashley extends belated wishes
hope you had a happy winter holiday, or lack thereof, and a good new year. ♥
i would just like to say that the house across the street from us put up little electric candles in all their windows.

in which ashley is not too shabby
xenosaga is kinda eating my soul. i was like, "i wonder why i feel an affinity for shion? she has longish red hair, green eyes, glasses, a large braid on one side of her face, and is a 22-year-old programmer who is really good at A.I. and tends to take various stupid risks ... oh ( Read more... )
