Um. I've moved.

So. Uh. Yeah.

This journal will be deleted as soon as I print all my story ideas from it.

Just wanted to make the announcement since I haven't gotten any comments over there from any of you guys. >.o Yes, I'm an attention-whore, stfu.

Moving to another journal. It's bare right now, but I plan on making a layout and some nifty new icons later tonight.

Anyway, I'm posting because I'm moving my friends list over there. If you wanna keep up with me, comment either here or over there. I'm gonna have the exact list as it is here as over there but after some time, I'll take people off that haven't commented. I'm just cold-heartedly organized that way.

This also goes for any lurkers I have (though since I haven't updated in forever and a day, you guys may have moved on too...).

It's not going to be a friends-only journal, but I will make friends-only posts occassionally (especially when bitching about someone IRL; I'm not stupid, LJ is a big place). So uh...yeah.

Now I think my fever is coming back so I'm gonna go lie down and try to feel better before going shoe-shopping and to Carrabbas.

Viva Spiedino!

Meme cuteness. ^^

...Since I've currently been interested to see how others view me.

( Skizzors! )

1) Reply with your name and I'll respond with something random about you.
2) I'll tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.
3) I'll pick a flavor/color of jello to wrestle with you in. (Maybe.)
4) I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me.
5) I'll tell you my first memory of you.
6) I'll tell you what animal you remind me of.
7) I'll ask you something that I've always wondered about you.
8) If I do this for you, you must post this on your journal. You MUST. It is written.

1. Go here.
2. Pass it on.

Telling Tia about this new story idea made me want to write about it in here and get some opinions.

( Read about it nyar. )

Sorry about the bad grammar and such, but. It's six a.m. and I don't feel like beta'ing my own damn journal. XD;

Opinions welcome!

Oh! And sex will only be implied in this story. I don't intend to write it out like I usually do. Considering that even though I don't mention the boy's actual age, this is still pedophilia and even I have limits...though few and far between... ^^;

I heard the most moronic thing I've ever heard tonight. It made me ashamed to even be of the same species, much less the same country, region, and state.

This woman down in Mobile (where Katrina hit) was drunk off her ass, on the news saying how great it was to be out in the hurricane and how she was throwing a hurricane party. Her yard was under about two to three feet of water.

"Usually we have to go down a couple of blocks to get to the ocean, but this time the ocean came to us! :D"

...

What a fucking moron. And I bet she has a dozen kids.

So this is for all of you that write.

I found this software called Writer's Dreamkit that supposedly aids you in writing a novel (or whatever you want to write). It asks you questions about your characters to make sure that they're fleshed out, gives you example outlines to help you keep pace in your story, etc.

What I want to know is, do you think this would actually be helpful?

You can check out the website for info and screenshots here.

And just for the record, $60 is totally insane for this product. Amazon has it for half that.

Hokay, so once again, I'm going to make this my writing journal. XD; I've ended up with too many journals and I rarely use any of them, so I'm going to organize things a little. This is my main journal, AKA the one I vent a lot in, talk about real life, all that stuff. This is my graphics journal, where I'll be challenging myself to various 100 icon challenges and basically showing off any graphics I happen to make. Bookmark, friend, whatever. ^^;

So um. Hello and welcome to my writing journal. :D;

Well, I've been thoroughly bashed over the head with new muses and a new storyline, so you can read about that one by ( following the yellow brick road... )

*yawn* In other news, I'm reading like mad right now (about three books at once). I miss my Kenzi-chan. Comics rule. I need to work on more icons. (And apparently I love parentheses.)

Ta!

So Kenz has really been into this icon contest stuff lately and she entered a 100 icon challenge for Hercules. Well, I thought it would be fun, so I had her challenge me to do a Gackt 100. But instead of the three months that they have to complete the Hercules 100, I'm only giving myself five weeks (with my training to bring up my creativity at will, I figure this should be a piece of cake).

Anyway, you can keep up with that here if you'd like. And the icons are free, I just ask that you notify me before using them. I'd like to keep a list of people using them in that profile or something. I think it'd be neat. ^^

So yeah...most of my creativity is going to that right now. As it is, I've finished 14 icons and this is only the third day. Oh yeah, this is gonna be a piece of cake. XD

The puppy's good. She's gotten bigger. She can now stand on her hind paws and look over the ottoman. She used to couldn't see over it. o.O We have a vet appt tomorrow (it was canceled today due to downed power lines) so I'll get to see just how much bigger she's gotten. ^^

I'm freezing now (apparently upon entering my room, one is swiftly warped to Siberia) and I still have Kya running, so I'm gonna go play it and then come over and do my two more icons for tonight before hitting the sack. XD Weeeee...

Alright, look.

I've cooled off from earlier. I realize that I was acting rashly. I also think I overreacted a bit. But I'd like to clear up some things.

The entry about no one responding to my "cry for help" was not directed at you two. We don't even talk that regularly, so I didn't really even expect you to respond. And for the record, when I post something about me being depressed, I'm not looking for an artificial lung. I'm just looking for some caring words, just a "Hope you feel better!" or something.

I apologize for making it seem like I was trying to leech off of anyone. I didn't mean to. And I apologize for any stress I've caused.

I realize that this may sound snotty or sarcastic, but I don't mean it to.

I just want to end this cordially. I know we're all better and more mature than to go off name-calling and whathaveyou behind each other's backs. I don't even know if you two will even see this, but if you do, know that I'm sorry for any grief I've caused.

Well. I think Tia said it best:

"Yea, stuff like that really proves who your friends are."

( Nyan. )

Alright, so I've finished everyone's bracelets. Check those and 11 others that I have up for grabs ( here )

Now I go off to write and such. Maybe. >.>

I've finished another chapter of Blackout. D, check your email for it. X3 I shall post another excerpt when she gets it back to me, for those on my beta list.

I also have a phone job interview Wednesday, so depending on how that goes, this whole getting-a-chunk-of-Blackout-done plan may not go...well, as planned. Gah, I really need to write more. I need to be self-motivated. Why can't I be self-motivated?!

DAMN YOU, AQUA SCUUUUUMMMM!

Fwee! I flee! <3

So I've been making bracelets and necklaces. I took pictures of the two bracelets and one necklace that I've beaded recently. Still have yet to take pictures of the hemp stuff I've knotted, but I'll do that soon.

Anyway! ( Pics of said projects )

Speaking of making them, I'm planning on going and getting more beads and supplies tomorrow. Shae, D, Di, Becca, Tia, Tami, and Mehndi, check out my DJ for a message.

Anyway, if you'd like me to make you something, go ahead and leave a comment. Tell me whether you'd like a bracelet ($5) or a necklace ($7), how long it should be, if you prefer a certain color or style, etc. These bracelets were made with stretchy wire (not metal) so don't worry if you're allergic to nickel. Um...yeah, and anything else you want to tell me, go ahead. If you prefer hemp to beads, that's cool too.

Anyway, um. Yeah. And, and stuff. >.>

It's freakin' cold.

I've started making hemp bracelets and stuff. I'm pretty sure I could do a choker, you just make it longer. But anyway, since I'm doing this, I'd like to know if you guys would want one.

Let me know if you're interested.

In other news, I quit my job, so I have oodles of time to spend writing while I wait for news on other jobs. I finished the revised version's chapter eight of Blackout last night. I'm making it my goal to write at least one chapter a day. Hopefully I can then get a big chuck of Blackout done before I have to go start working somewhere again...

Anyway, that's just news going on in my little life. Nyan!

OH! I made a Flash MP3 player that you can access here. I have Gackt mp3s up on it right now, but I plan on adding more stuff. Um...yeah, just click on the song and it'll start playing. The slider below the status thingies is the volume, so...yeah...

*blink* Off I go!

SQUEE! I found my Blackout notebook! :D

I did a little bit of revising today at work. However, I have come to the realization that Blackout makes me horny. So I probably won't work on it much at work. >.> Don't like being Teh Horny in public, no I do not.

So um... Yeah, I've figured out how I want the characters to be now. Angel will be a lot more sexual and direct, Damien a lot more sexually possessive. Yes, he was possessive before, but not in public and not like this. Christian...well, Christian will pretty much remain the same. A bit more emotional because I felt like he kinda started being emotionless in the previous version.

Anyway, I'm going to start reworking starting with chapter 5 or so. I'll do a little bit of revision to the chapters before that, but nothing major.

And uh...yeah. Daylight Savings Time sucks.
