I'm writing this with no expectation that anyone will read it as I've been completely absent from LJ for weeks! Life has been completely crazy. My Europe trip has been tenuously on the fence until about a week ago. The friend I'm traveling with has some compressed discs in her back and she's been experiencing some major flare-ups, so whether she ( Read more... )

Jai, I've been wanting to do these since the day you asked for them, but RL has gotten in the way.  Please accept these as a huge "THANK YOU" for all the wonderful story-telling hours you have clocked and all the wonderful reading I have enjoyed.  Keep up the great work...you have a boat-load of talent! *hugs*

I have to say, I enjoyed the Chance/Chloe interaction and I'm not opposed to a little love triangle involving Chloe. I know she has her faults, but the girl really does deserve better than Billy. That being said, for whatever reason, I have a little soft spot for Billy. I enjoyed seeing him get a little jealous of his nephew when he walked in on ( Read more... )

I found a few more promo pics of John. They can be found here (www.theyoungandtherestless.com/specials/specials_detail_4687.html) if you want to have a peek for yourself.

I believe Chance makes another appearance on Monday (sharing some scenes with Chloe), so I will make some screen-shot icons sometime after that. I'm quite anxious for the Chance/ ( Read more... )

So, I haven't had much time lately to spend surfing the net like I used to (my summer has been ridiculously busy...but in the best possible way). So, today I had a few minutes to myself so I thought I would do a quick fly-by to catch up on some of the LJ action I've been missing while I've been away (and boy is there a lot I need to catch up on, ( Read more... )

I had a couple of hours to kill today and thought to myself, "Self, I think you should watch a movie...which one will it be?" So, I headed to my cabinet of trusty movies and pulled out the classic Some Kind of Wonderful. I LOVE this movie, as much today as when I first watched it on the big screen back in 1987. So, in order to celebrate the ' ( Read more... )

It is a very sad day for me today. My cat, Dakota, has not been well for the last month and today I made the decision to euthanize her. I got her from a shelter when she was 3 years old and she's been with me these past 13 years, keeping me and my dogs in line. *grin* She was the best of cats, and of friends and I will miss her terribly.

So long, my ( Read more... )

I've been a bit of a shutter-bug this last week and have been out-and-about taking pictures. Naturally, with pictures come icons. *grins* If you are interested in seeing the "life-size" versions of these pictures please feel free to check out my Deviant Art page here emmk1970.deviantart.com/ .

Icons away...

Since I'm still not down from my "Glee" high, I thought a round of icon making was in order. *gin*

Okay, I'm the first to admit that I'm a total sucker for a musical, whether it be an actual live version of one of the many Broadway shows (i.e. Chicago, Les Miserables, or Wicked), or movie versions such as Grease, Hairspray, or High School Musical. I love music, in almost all of its incarnations. There is nothing on earth that is quite as  ( Read more... )
