Posts from — October 2006

Have gotten the Imperial Family sheet done (I had to keep track of the aunts and uncles at least!) and will begin the Plot Outline soonish. I plan on posting it at the Annex and the Scriptorium. Also, making a list of essential food items to have in the house along with getting some sort of paper control put in. Also house is supposed to be appraised next week so cleaning!

Anxiously waiting for Oct. 31 so I can go and pick up my copy of Final Fantasy XII.

ETA: Fixed feedburner feed-was NOT paying attention, so sorry!

Also-I finished my plot outline for my NaNo novel and will be doing some serious research. before Nov. 1

Listening to: Get Ready For This (1992) by 2 Unlimited on Get Ready For This

Have added a Feedburner feed to the blog. I’ve spliced in my del.icio.us links as well as posts from here. The link and an email subscription form is under the heading Various Bits and Drabs.

Upgraded to Firefox 2.0 and waiting for two-three extensions to be updated-Blog This for Firefox for Windows Live Writer, del.icio.us and Furl tools. I adore the new built-in spell checker and like the fact I can add spellings to the dictionary. The default theme is very pretty. I got rid of a bunch of extensions and haven’t missed them-well except for the three I listed above and the handy dandy BBcode extension (which I wish had LJ specific codes for ease of use in commenting and posting)

NAACP: Tenn. Senate ad plays to racism – Yahoo News

I’ve seen the ad in question (and disclosure-I voted for Harold Ford in early elections). 

I thought it was rather stupid as heaven forbid a single man goes to a party, or hell anybody says something stupid.

I’m not from Chattanooga, so I can’t say I’ve heard anything other than what is in the ads about how Bob Corker ran the  city.

It is sad that an independent group not otherwise affiliated with the Republicans or the Corker campaign can make up such innuendo and garbage (rather like a  school-kid taunting his victim with some stupid childish taunts).

Listening to: Embrace by Julian Petrin on mixed tape 01

Black Sky

Layers of Stars

Galaxies spinning in the vastness

The Moon smiling down

So near, yet so far

Red Leaves, Yellow Leaves splashed

Against Gray Skies

Fall

Pink-gold light tinting the world

Wispy fog muffling

The night recedes

The stars hide

And the Moon follows the Sun

Pale white pearl in a bed of black velvet strewn with diamonds

Cold white light caressing the dark hills

Dark side hiding on the other side

Stars shine brighter

Crescent hanging in the sky

Chasing the Sun

Link to BlondeSense: The Internet May Save Us All

Excellent post and full of great points.  I’ve learned so very much since I’ve discovered the internet that has changed my perspective on many things and changed my outlook on things.

Listening to: Me On The Beach by Nagisa Ni Te on On the Love Beach

Listening to: Crimson Phoenix by Atlas Plug on 2 Days or Die

Testing Windows Live Writer with the currently playing plugin and iTunes plugin.  Seems to work so far, though it is a bit slow in updating the song when the song changes.

Much nicer than w.bloggar and seems much prettier.
