During the month of August, I will be preparing to move. On or around the week of August 22nd, I will be in the middle of moving. I have no idea how long I’ll be gone, but I’ll try to keep up my blog and e-mail however I can. You can contact me at

*yawns* I’ve really gotten out of the habit of keeping this up. Been playing a lot of Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past in between bouts of packing up. If you’ve been keeping up with Sally’s Weblog, you know that we’re moving soon. We close on August 10th and then we have until the 25th to get out of here, so it’s a packing frenzy. Well, that and cleaning. To make sure we leave the house exactly as the company wants it, they’re going to be holding $5,000 of our money from the sale. If the house isn’t clean and all trash removed, they’ll subtract whatever it takes to clean it up. Knowing companies, they’ll find the most expensive way to do it. So… we’re not only packing, but cleaning as we do it. Now there’s the dilemma on what to do if we can’t immediately get into the new house… hell, with the car still down for the count, it’s a dilemma on how we’re going to go house hunting. And mom has only made ONE friggin’ phonecall. >_> Lovely. Too bad my former roomie doesn’t live in Michigan anymore.

It doesn’t look like I’m going to bother with a new blog design OR finishing up comissions. I’m just too bloody distracted…. and now Gaia is being stupid too. Oh well, it’ll all work out in the end.

Still having trouble concentrating on my comissions for IRN and Izzy, so I got to work on my own blog layout. It’s going to be a Legend of Zelda layout, featuring Link as an adult.

Going to be another CSS layout, as much as I physically can. Still working the kinks out of working with absolute positioning, so I’m not sure how well that thought is going to turn out. Anyway, this new layout uses lots of brushes from Nocturna.net, some 20+ layers, fonts used include Border Corners, RingBearer, and Elphinstone. Images pulled from ZeldArt.net.

I definately feel another bout of Lurkitis coming on.

Why am I being ignored?

That’s a question I’m asking myself on almost every message board I’m on. I’ll post a topic and no one will even look at the topic. Or I’ll reply to a topic, and the people who reply after me will act as though I never posted. I know they’ve read the topic, they respond or say they agree with the people whose replies surround mine. Why not me?

Updated Legacies of the Fallen today with revised chapters. I feel so unimaginative… but at least I’m working on a totally new chapter. =) Now, if only I could find a beta reader, I’d be all set. I really need to stop trying to be a perfectionist and just write. But I gotta have it damned near perfect before I feel like putting it up. (Not only that, but formatting my fics for the demands of each and every archive out there makes me equally grouchy. FF.net has one way, my archive has another, Media Miner has another, Fandomination has yet another, and the message boards take an even more different way. Lets forget I’m tempted to send my fic in to an old-fashioned Archive that houses Squaresoft/Chrono Trigger fanfics in general. X_x I also need to get over this need to feedback. Stupid, I know, but I really find myself hoping to hear something - anything, about my stuff.

Blah. I need a new layout. And it’s bugging me! XD I almost talked myself into revisiting my old Magus/Black Wind layout - almost. I’m just not sure what I’d do. I dunno. I want to find a layout I’m going to really love so I can put my concentration back on my comissioned projects. Pathetically, I found myself looking at Pretear images today. XD Crimmy started something. Oh well, if I had to suddenly become interested in a Shoujo anime, at least it’s a cool one.

Also, before I forget… Thank You everyone for your support over my Grandma and loosing Fancy. You guys are truly awesome… I don’t think I can tell you that enough. =)

Anyway, as per the entry subject… I feel another bout of lurkitis coming on. Once again, inexplicably, I’m finding myself ignored on damn near every message board I’m on! I actually bothered to log on to Trillian (AIM, Yahoo, ICQ, & MSN all at once) to chat while I worked on playing with Izzy’s CSS file a little. I wasn’t in the mood to RP and since I’d really like to finish these comissions I didn’t feel. I offered to hang around and listen, but suddenly they terminate the chat “because they don’t want to bother me.” *mutters, sighs* Whatever. Went invisible on everything but AIM. I don’t have the willpower to explain myself over and over again anymore. I probably should just remove all my contact info from my board profiles. I’m either their intelletual whore to keep them from being bored or what starts out as a great conversation descends into small talk land the moment they ask “How old r u?” I know I’m older than most of the board populations, but gawd - !
