So, bigish news of the weekend is sorta twofold. The bigger piece of it is that I got a shiny new blackberry to try to get into this whole connected world we live in. The related piece that's probably more relevant (and the cause of the post) is that I got unlimited texts to go with that. So if you don't mind texts and whatnot, feel free to ( Read more... )

I signed up last week for Holly Lisle's writing course. I used the money I got from my birthday to get a workable laptop last week (went with something relatively cheap) so I'd have a platform for writing and somewhere to house such things, so it seemed like a good investment to get a course to provide some structure for the efforts.

Sadly, I'm stuck with a 40-minute commute each way, ( Read more... )

Just tossing a quick post out there, have been sick for the past two days. Got home Tuesday afternoon and basically passed out, got up later that evening feeling like crap... and basically haven't gotten up from my futon since, apart from a couple brief trips to the comp to let my work know I wouldn't be in the past few days ( Read more... )

Well, I was going to bitch about the post I was making yesterday that got eaten, but then it was revived when I loaded up LJ to post. Yay? It was a pretty stupid post anyway, but now you all get to enjoy it. Once more, with enthusiasm ( Read more... )

I know Christmas is coming very soon, but it feels very far away. Jes grumbled at me a bit yesterday about impulse purchases, because I bought the new Mraz CD for myself last week when I was at Best Buy. Suggested I should let her know what I want so she can tell our collective parents. Oops ( Read more... )
