Happy Star Wars Day
May the 4th be with you.
Now if you'll excuse me I need to get to Burger King to pick up my Star Trek toys. -
Saturday morning nostalgia
What I've been watching.

Green thumb?... or touch of death?
Looks like I am becoming a gardener/landscaper or whatever. The other day I ordered plants for the yard. Today, having the day to myself, I transplanted a tree, replaced a shrub that had died and planted some flowers. What's next?
Oh...I've been watching gardening shows on the PBS Create channel as well. -
Writing type stuff
Had some spare time tonight. Had my new little net-book with me. So I did some writing. Got started on this sorta pulp fantasy story I've had in my head for some time now. Not sure if it will be a novel, series of short stories or what. But it feels good to be writing fiction again. -
Another one done
Finished updating another page on my web-site. This one was pleasing since I was able to figure out how to embed videos onto the site. Learning a new trick of web design is fun. -
Spring Cleaning of sorts
I've been updating Shade of Jeremy dot com the last couple of days. I cannot believe it hadn't been touched since back in July. I know for a while there I wasn't able to get into it to do any work but still.
Today's fix up is my art gallery. I'm going to attempt to do some work on one page each day this week until I get it all done. -
sad news
A couple of things.
First Frank Springer has passed away. That is saddening, I remember his art from G. I. Joe and Transformers from Marvel.
Second, Dave Arneson, co-creator of Dungeons and Dragons, has been hospitalized. The prognosis is pretty poor.
Not exactly the best of news to come home to. -
New Project
Thanks to the idea from antonstrout here http://antonstrout.livejournal.com/368517.html I'm working on a new book. And I had the most wonderful, insane idea. I shall serialize my new tale on Twitter.
I humbly present "Were-Jaguars Vs. The Ninja Mermaids in the Sunken City" were-jaguar, twitter, anton strout, ninja mermaid, writing, book, fantasyNet-Book
I've been enjoying the net book I got the other day. It is working out quite nicely for me. Today I picked up a mouse and two SD memory cards for it. So I've effectively doubled the memory and can now work a little more efficiently. I wasn't taking to the touch pad so well. Now I just need to find a nice quite place to go and make use of it.Arrogant Linux Elitist.
About an hour before I was to leave for work UPS dropped off my new netbook. Wonderful timing. So I took it along so I could try it out while I wasn't busy ( Read more... )
