I kind of forgot I had this journal. I completely forgot I had this icon until I logged in just now and was greeted by it. Ah ha ha, why would I ever *not* have this as my default icon ( Read more... )

Okay, I need some help understanding the series finale of Fringe.

( It's probably obvious but I can't seem to wrap my head around it... )

All right, so, what does "pending Delete" in the status of a whois search mean? Does that mean the domain should be available soon? Because I want to buy back my old domain. I know the files are lost forever (in a series of unfortunate miscalculations, I somehow skipped every single back-up thinking I'd have the files in one of the other back-ups ( Read more... )

Just came over to delete a handful of spam comments from various entries, and saw I haven't updated here in over a year...

To my chagrin, my yahoo mail account was wiped due to inactivity on my part, so I lost all the treasures I've saved there through the years (the "good" as well as the "bad"). Then Windsor suggested I try GWA for some of the Gundam Wing stuff-- ( Read more... )

So like. Some of you know how I have a thing for anime characters who are amputees, right? Well, the steam cleaners came this morning (I'm back in southern California now, btw, which is fantastic except that the house was a disaster zone when I arrived, so I've had to hire professionals after completely giving up). When I shook the hand of the lead ( Read more... )

Fair warning, you guys: I've had two cups of caffeinated beverage this morning. So I may get a little spammy throughout the day.

If you haven't seen it already, there is some AH-MAY-ZING news from NASA (link courtesy of Slashdot):
