I've made up a new word and it is my new favorite word: Hilarifying (adj) used to describe something which is simultaneously hilarious and terrifying; i.e. the ghosts from Fatal Frame II singing the Nom Nom Song. The thought still creeps me out and makes me giggle at the same time.

That is all.

I can't think of the last time I've posed this many times in such quick succession on Live Journal. Not that I mind if it's a new habit I'm picking up. Quite the contrary, I keep trying to tell myself I should post more but feel I never have anything to post about. All that's really going on in my life is, well, my life.

Okay, resolutions update! ( Read more... )

Not only do I get a new icon, but by participating in this I am only furthering my own ends by stimulating my creativity! Mwahaha!

The first five people to comment in this post get to request that I write a drabble of any pairing/character of their choosing. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level. Some ( Read more... )

Okay, I know it hasn't even been a week, but I figure if I'm going to hold myself accountable on my resolutions here, then I may as well just jump in.

The Good:

I have been eating a bit smaller portions at mealtimes, and I've been snacking less. I've even manages to avoid the various sweet temptations around the house for the most part. I tried out ( Read more... )

Thanks to the influence of the ineffable diviana_nyx, I've decided I might actually give resolutions a go this year.

1. Be happy.
James asked me on New Years Day if I had any resolutions. I thought about it for a moment and, in part because I couldn't really think of anything, this is what I answered. Flippancy aside, it's actually a good resolution ( Read more... )

Okay, this weekend is the last weekend of Ren Faire here in ye olde Colorado and I have not yet gotten my annual Faire-ing in. I had initially thought Sunday would be fun because it's *the* last day, but then the news this morning informed me that the high Sunday is expected to be about 90 (NOAA says 87 for Larkspur), whereas the high Saturday is ( Read more... )

Well I'm back State-side and as fantastic a time as I had, I'm really glad to be home. For anyone who's not sure where their next luxury vacation should take them, I fully recommend cruising as you not only get to visit a variety of amazing places, on-board there's another million and a half things to do, all in gorgeous setting with lovely staff ( Read more... )

I leave the country in a week and am thoroughly unprepared! Not only am I working up until I leave so this weekend is my last opportunity to get the bajillion things done I need to do before I leave, but I just found out that the party I'm going to tomorrow night is not in fact being hosted at a friend's house, but will be help at *MY* house which ( Read more... )

Mind you, it's currently just an idea. The idea has a number of contingencies to it - id est, getting enough people to make it work... which is contingent on going ahead with the idea/plan... which is in turn contingent on Opus happening next year... which in turn is contingent on how quickly James can get a new job.

Yes, sorry for cryptic post ( Read more... )

Hey everyone! It's time for my highly biased Public Service Announcement:

Don't forget, Opus is only three days away! It starts this Friday, the 13th, and runs through Sunday, the 15th. Now is the time to get your geek on, so spread the word to any poor shlubs who haven't heard what's going down this weekend. Friday night's going to be the Dark ( Read more... )
