My New Obsession
I know I've been pretty silent the last few months. This semester has been kicking me backward, forward and every which way. I come home brain fried, making writing difficult, and I'm so tired I don't stay up as late as I used to. However, I have found something to relieve the stress that takes more creativity than brain power and it's very ( Read more... ) -
40 Icons, Free for the Snagging
Yeah, I know it's been a while. I'm getting slammed at work because of the new lab at our satellite campus... and the lab manager that was NOT hired because of budget cuts. Sure, the college is paying me extra, but it's eating up a good portion of my time and I come home so tired it takes me most of Saturday to recover ( Read more... ) -
Thirty Icons and a Brand New Journal
I know I haven't been around much lately. I just don't have a great deal of time to write in this journal. Besides, I've sorta lost some of my muse for writing X-Men fanfiction, although I haven't given up on my RPG ( Read more... ) -
The Quality of Mercy...
When you see this in a friend's journal, quote Shakespeare!

I finally won first place in obsessiveicons, a very respected icon designer’s community! - OI Icon ContestI’ve won other icon making awards (but never first place) and one fanfiction award (not a ( Read more... ) -
Hooray For the Birds
This afternoon was about as good as it gets weather-wise in Florida, IMHO - Cloudless sky, warm but not hot, low humidity - perfect spring day. It will last all of two or three weeks, and then it will get HOT ( Read more... ) -
An Unwelcome Surprise
Just got back from a visit to the walk-in clinic. (Try getting your regular doctor to see you Friday afternoon.) I have had something on my back that was really itchy for about two weeks now, but it was in the upper center so I couldn’t reach it and could barely see it. I had my hubby examine it and he told me it was a skin tag, and that it ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
Just recently added to my meager action figure collection. Colossus is my newest (or maybe not so new) obsession. He joins Movie Nightcrawler, Comic Nightcrawler, Legolas, Puss in Boots and my Peter Pan snowglobe. Somewhere I have a comic Storm too, who used to be up there cuddling Comic Kurt. (Heavens, I hope she didn't run off with my ( Read more... )
