OC was fun, as anticipated, even given annoyances like sunburn halfway through the week ( Read more... ) -
Ok?
Apparently I'm not working this week because someone or everyone at the store misconstrued "I want a week off and I'm leaving by the 28th" as "I'm quitting in August." Gah ( Read more... ) -
Been busy!
Week on my own went by much like any other, if a bit more peacefully. (Though I don't like having to take the bus to work--having to walk 45 minutes in the heat AND pay bus fare feels ridiculous!) Boyfriend came over a few times, bearing food and games to play, and some friends took me out as well (yay!). I cleaned the house up a bit, and ( Read more... ) -

Having a "Seraphina moment"! I'm so happy for no one particular reason. Perhaps for a lot of reasons. I feel like the universe is smiling at me ( Read more... ) -
No new PC today :(
Boyfriend came over today. We were going to put my computer together; we got all the parts out and... lo and behold, we'd ordered the wrong processor. (Silly me!) Ran around looking for something comparable to what we'd originally wanted, dragging my dad along--apparently neither Best Buy nor CompUSA can be depended upon for this sort of thing.

Parts are here! I'm so excited... even though I hate Microsoft, I will soon have my very own Windoze-running Beast. (This means Koikuri on Shadow Moon and Atrophia on Silver Hand may finally get out of their respective inns... haha, well, maybe.)
Saw A. today! Wow, I'd missed her so much... We must do that again, when I don't have to run to work! -
All my life, I've only been pretending...
I realized something tonight that caught me completely by surprise - largely because I've wanted it for so long that I can't believe it took this long for me to notice. This job is one of the first things I've ever done that feels real ( Read more... ) -
TV Tuesday
Quick sketch of my submission for next week's "TV Tuesday" over at creativenude. I'm nervous about submitting it, because everyone else is doing photography... but photos aren't explicitly required in either the community rules or the contest rules. Hopefully, being different will be an asset and not a liability.

I may simply refuse to watch Episode Three
Apparently, there's a pretty significant plot leap between that piece of cinematic crap known as Episode two, in which Anakin Skywalker was an angsty teenager who was mostly determined to do good things (eg. saving those he cared about, stopping the traitors, etc.) and mostly too lovestruck to act out, and Episode Three, in which Anakin Skywalker ( Read more... ) -
The End of Analog TV
"Will America’s favorite technology really go dark next year?"This article talks about the looming switch from analog to digital broadcasting, and how the majority of consumers aren't going to be prepared with digital-ready televisions, since the only DTVs that have been available are the huge-screen HD ones and we can't all afford those. Not that ( Read more... )
