Well, LJ didn’t implode after all, and if you come here at all I’m sure you noticed I haven’t updated here in a while.  Posting photos, for instance, is too much effort after wrestling with them on LJ first.

So I’m going to call this experiment finished, and stop posting here.  It gets very few hits, so I don’t think it’ll be missed.  I may someday return to WordPress, but at the moment I’ll stick with LJ.

Thanks for stopping by.  You can still find me here.

Watching Tuff Turf.

*howl*

I’m too old for this movie.  I was always too old for this movie.  XD

ETA: They do have a bass sax, though.  Points for that.

Good heavens, and Beer brand beer.  Who remembers that?

I have no love for either Buffy or Twilight, and I still found this hilarious (it’s a video).  But if you’re a die-hard Twilight fan, don’t watch.  Snabbled from [info]amonitrate.

Okay, the haiku are mine–she challenged me yesterday–but she illustrated them. Aren’t they marvelous? :D   Thank you, dearest!

Plus the whole haiku idea is fun.  Try some of your own.

I hate Photoshop.  Hate hate hate.

*sigh*  Is anyone out there willing to make me an icon from a large .jpg file?  I just want the background sort of faded back.  I’ll give you…well, I don’t know.  What do you want?

ETA: Got it!  Thank you, [info]phdelicious!

Meme, snabbled from [info]trialia:

We all love looking at people’s icons, but don’t always *get* them– wondering stuff like, “Who’s that guy?” or “Where’s that quote from?” but tend not to ask, for various reasons.

Mine are here.  I think I can explain them all…

This appears to be a new author, but goodness knows if they were writing somewhere else previously.  The skill certainly implies it.  Step One by Aaron Cronin is a quick Iron Man story that manages to be both funny and touching at the same time–and that addresses an issue that often goes ignored.  Very clever, and a read that leaves me wanting more.
