I have been writing again, and have been posting the resultant fic to my creative journal and at FF.net and Archive of Our Own.

In addition, I am going to try to get off my lazy, distracted aft and post more recs and other things. I have ideas for eassays, I am trying to iron out, and have been catching up on my rather large list of fics to read.

Uploaded a new theme: Notepad Chaos. I really like the design elements and how it all works together. Had to do some fiddling for navigation issues, but I figured it out~

Have fully recovered from the plague, although I still have a slight cough. That should go away soon. End of school is coming up quite rapidly here. Little Miss will be going to third grade in the fall in a new to her school. That will be an adjustment.

Looking into moving out of state for jobs. I think there is a 15% unemployment rate here in my county, so yeah. I can’t transfer till September, so perhaps I can shoot for after Christmas to move at the earliest, preferably next summer. I hate changing schools in the middle of the year.

Took some pretty pictures of the lavender/blue bearded iris outside, and uploading said pictures plus what ever was lurking on my memory stick while I wait on dishes to air dry so I can do another sinkful plus choke Bloglines with a huge OPML file.

Started back to taking pictures. I need to remember to take my camera with me more often. Also have been working on some fic ideas and even poking at the mythology for a world I’m building for a novel or two.

In other words lesbian cats.

In Twilight, a writer decided to try to sell her fanfic aka “tribute novel”. That never ends well. [Supplementary Link Collection] {source: JF}

And in Supernatural, there was a wonderful display of entitlement: Somebody called security to have Jensen Ackles’ GIRLFRIEND from the con. Dear lord. the mind is boggled. Also, why would anybody want to give the fic they wrote about a character/person to THAT PERSON?

So, this will be the start of a re-booted site. I’m planning a lot of new things, things that fit with how I saw what I was going to do with this place when I first got it.

Currently using Thunderbird and IMAP to move emails to my new main account.  Also trying out the MS Windows Photo Gallery Beta.  It’s pretty and I can tag things and not have fifty million folders to keep photos organized.  So there goes another thing to do, add tags to all my photos.

Using Windows Live Writer to do this post. I’ve always liked it better than the browser based post editors, so I believe I’ll stick with it.
