09:49 am - An update about my life? Surely you jest! (This is not the Chronarchy you are looking for.)
The other night, I was at a  osu_psa meeting. It was an interesting experience, all in all. Suffice it to say that there were more important things than losing one's temper, because I was fuming going into it.
It's good to see that several of the cards I sent out brightened the day of a few LJer's. I'm not good at sending cards out, and I know I don't have half the addresses I should, but I got as many out as I could.
I had dinner on Tuesday with  mistw02 after the PSA meeting, which was nice. Especially since she paid. It's a truly rare treat to have a woman buy you dinner.
Last night I had buffalo burgers with Brian. Unfortunately, they weren't what I remembered, nor were they what he remembered. Either Smokey Bones changed their supplier of Buffalo meat (and they swear they didn't), or buffalo tastes different on Wednesdays than it does on Saturdays. Either way, it wasn't near the treat I was hoping. On a bright note, the fries were actually pretty good, whereas last time they sucked ass (to put it politely).
I finished the LDG report early this quarter, so that's out of the way. Turned it in to shizukagozen and aislinggheal via email because it was requested for Oak Leaves. Apparently, my last Dance Guild report is going to stay in issue 27, which might ruffle some feathers. What fun will that be!
I need to get OL 28 editied and ready to go, and then we'll finally be back on schedule. . . if the Office prints things up on time. *grins*
And maybe we'll be able to work on getting some colour into the rag, too.
(By the way, tlachtga, that was a good article on the tripple goddess thing.)
On Tuesday I watched the Star Wars Holiday Special from 1978. All two hours of it, with 1978 commercials. What's that? You've never seen it? Never even heard of it? You know, there's probably a good reason for that. It's part action, part cartoon, part musical, part Wookies making Wookie sounds. I swear, 1/3 of the entire thing must be untranslated Wookie. But it's damn funny, if you can stomach it.
Oh, and I had a letter in the Columbus Dispatch on Monday, Jan. 10, 2005. You've all already read it, but I was amused to see that they changed the word "bitchfest" to "gripefest". Silly editorial changes.
I spent last night cuddled up with Tina, and I must say, life is damn good right about now.
But now, it's back to work, because I have a crapload to do today.

For the record your card DID brighten my day. Very nice. Excellent :) Hehe. This post is turning into one giant "Thanks for the card" thing, isn't it? Not what was intended, but I'm enjoying seeing that they all arrived :) ![[User Picture]](https://l-userpic.livejournal.com/81530616/859430) | | From: | qorinda |

I think I already told you thanks for the card, etc. :) I meant to thank you for the card--that made my day :)
(By the way, tlachtga, that was a good article on the tripple goddess thing.)
Oh cool! I wasn't sure if it was going in. 28 isn't completely finished yet, but your article is in the version I'm editing, so I imagine it will show up in there. :)
Glad the card made it there :) I've worried that my addresses were sometimes out of date. As it stands, only one card has bounced back :) ![[User Picture]](https://l-userpic.livejournal.com/58403119/1143777) | | From: | chronarchy |

*grins* It would be best to suggest that I got it through methods that the RIAA may not approve of, nor would the website respectcopyrights.org. And certainly I found it in sectors of the online community that are not as respectable as others. Now, if only all the subscribers to OL would actually tell me they liked it and start submitting stuff. Okay, I thought about it and I suppose I cannot really complain-- after all in seven months I received enough submissions to make five issues (I think that is a record on both ends). :-D
But, it would be nice if more people would support the darn thing. Hey, you should be flying somewhere expensive now. Get going!
Btw, I'm about halfway through with the 28 edits, after having no lunch date.
:) I left yesterday. ;p And it wasn't expensive for me-- the company paid! Ok, we had to pay a total of 800 for both of our round trip to Tokyo-Chicago. Hehe. I am waiting for m3ch to get back with the rental so we can go look at temple ruins (especially the ones where human sacrifices took place!). Heh. Yes, I lost a day. Damn me!
You? Human Sacrifice? No! Yup, and today was another human sacrificing temple "deep" in the jungle with no one around except millions of ants and mosquitoes. I would have done a ritual but I know jack about Hawaiian religion. | | From: | qorinda |

I haven't started either #27 or #28. I thought there was no hurry for a couple of weeks. I'll try to do some this weekend. I don't believe there is a hurry. I just did it because I could. :) I find that if I don't do it when Narabali pokes me, I might not do it at all. :) Ha! I don't need to poke you to get things done. I have incriminating photos to do that job. There is no hurry. If they're in by Feb. 5th that is great. Thanks for all your help again! I appreciated the card and letter. Glad to know I rate. ;-)
Heh. You rate and I was able to get your address :) That second point is, probably, more important than the first :) I want the wookies!!!!!!!!
I *do* in fact remember that special, oddly enough.
I keep forgetting to tell you I got the card & that it brightened my dat. And I did finally receive an issue of Oakleaves & while mine was also missing the rumored centerfold, it was grand. I wish I could contribute but I'm already buried in work & the terms just beginning. And I'm not dealing with Druid stuff in my artwork at the moment. I think that those of us who don't speak Wookie are just not meant to get it.
Glad you got hte card :)
Contribute when you get the chance :) Hehe. I don't send out the cards for the thanks :) The smiles are the real reason. :)
And you appear to have gotten as far as I did. There's still time, though! You could send very, very early 2005 holiday cards! Or if you're really quick, Martin Luther King Day cards. Yes, but that will look less on-the-ball than very early holiday cards. Besides, what does holly and mistletoe have to do with having a dream. . . Nevermind, I suppose Baldur did have a dream that would correlate.
Yeah, go for that! |
