I tried to inspire *myself* to post more, and that clearly did not work. So, I'm stealing inspiration from others. athaena posted about this 30-day meme that's apparently going around, and I figured I'd give it a shot. Below are the full 30 days of assignments:

I know next to nothing about computers (well, I taught myself some basic HTML 10yrs ago about which I remember little, and I took a C++ class in college about which I remember less.) I can't fix things when they're broken. I can't sew to save my life. Really, if it has a practical use, ( Read more... )
