So I'm not completely happy with the script font on the first image (I tried a bunch of fonts and couldn't find one I was truly happy with, and didn't feel like browsing any font archives this morning, and this did look better as a .PSP file instead of an animated .GIF, I swear), and I'm still a couple thousand XP from being truly there (though the ( Read more... )

The City Clerk's office is a little behind, I guess. Last Friday, I got the post card with the renewal number for my city sticker (so glad they've ironed out the online system for these). I got around to doing my renewal on Monday evening ( Read more... )

I finally broke down and got myself a new desk chair - Vocazo.

Good god, I hate going back to work after a con. It doesn't help when I come back to lots of stupidity from clients, wanting to track things like golf stores, and finding stupid errors in the data.

It's almost Friday at least...

Oh yeah.. and Greg Dean got it half right in this webcomic strip. It doesn't take until you're 40 for an anime con to feel like a Hannah Montana concert. -_-;;;

Well, I suppose the fact that I am posting this before 8:00pm should tell you something. The con felt rather dead today, and definitely not as crowded as last year, by a lot, I'd say ( Read more... )
