Whee, morning ... *thud*

Yeah, tiredstayeduptoolateblah ... la la la ... *smiles innocently* It's a good morning anyway. Good night. Except for the pledge drive waking me up.

The Ad Graveyard. Ever wonder what happens to a good ad campaign if the client doesn't like it? Well, it ends up here. Some amusing stuff. :-D
Sushi USB drives. WANT WANT WANT. (From [livejournal.com profile] epi_lj, among other people.)
And for more strange Japanese pop culture, Super Mario dioramas.
The neurology of synaesthesia.
Turn your TV off or face a $10,000 fine?

Right. Food. Music. Phone calls.

The bunny, the bunny, oh I love the bunny ...

I love getting hit on the head with an idea while I'm putting dishes away.
So now I very well might have something for the Hallowe'en story contest. It may not be particularly scary, but it does take place on Hallowe'en.

A long long time ago ... in a galaxy far away ...

Called PSU. Apparently I forgot to send them my York transcripts. Damnit. Curse my lousy memory. That's an added six days for York to process them ... and then another however many on top of that. On the upside, I did have some decent grades there (excepting the last semester, which just tanked horribly) ... so hopefully they'll be able to overlook the bad ones. Mostly Bs and Cs, some As ...
And they will take a faxed copy from the university, so ... I suppose it's better than waiting for it to be mailed.
And I found a copy of my NCCC transcript. Okay, yeah, it was community college, but I was pregnant through the last semester and had a three hour commute each way every day and still managed to pull off a 3.75 GPA. That's gotta count for something. *worries irrationally, smacks self*
You ever get to that state where you annoy yourself? Yeah. That's where I'm at now.
Back to work. I have a small black cat on my forearm, trying to comfort me.
Velvet, say hi to my friends list.
Velvet: *changes position onto chest, sniffs my mouth, starts purring madly*
I think that means 'hi'. Consider yourselves loved from both of us.

Look, a meme.

With pretty colours.
I'm finally satisfied with my interests list, so I decided to do this one.
And now I am going to WRITE THIS DAMN HALLOWEEN THING. Yes.

Edit: Right. Now that I've ordered groceries and most of the next Supertramp album is done playing, I'm going to do it. Yes.
Now.
I can see this is going to be wone of those days. Look, a shiny object!
Edit 2: Right. Now that I've cleaned up the mess the boy made and taken something for my cold I am going to get started, yes. As soon as I find the damn throat lozenges. Argh, sick bad!
Behind this cut tag lurks a really hyooge meme. )
I should also mention that [livejournal.com profile] shadesong has started [livejournal.com profile] she_is_story, which is a woman-writer community ... which I should mention because for some reason I have a massive number of woman writers on my friends list. This is weird to me, but that's another post. Now I have to WRITE THE DAMN HALLOWE'EN STORY.
Now.
