I am a

Official NaNoWriMo 2004 Winner!

The story this year was much worse than last year, but do you see me care?


Plus my Buffy box came today! Hurrah!


On not so great things, I need to read for tomorrow's test and can't watch any Buffy now... But I don't mind. I have the DVDs, now I can watch Buffy whenever I want!

begin rant

I just got my new computer after two weeks of extra waiting. I was all happy and ready to write more to my nano with my new keyboard. Then we noticed that the diskette drive didn't work. It just didn't notice that there was a diskette inside. I couldn't get my nanovel to the computer.

So we opened the case to see if the drive was connected. It was, and we wondered about it. Then, as Juri switched the computer on when the case was open, I noticed there was smoke coming out from inside the machine. The hard drive was smoking! Who has ever heard of/seen a hard drive smoking? We sure as hell hadn't. Processors can smoke. Hard drives don't.

So, the catch of the first day with my new computer is two parts that need to be replaced. Now that's a good computer. My trust for the functionality of the other parts is now gone and I will buy nothing from that computer store again after I get my replacements.

Of Quizes

Which Johnny Depp character are you?

johnny
Johnny Depp, the great man himself.


Who is your inner Johnny Depp Character?
brought to you by Quizilla

Why does this always happen to me? When I did the quiz 'Which Jhonen Vasquez character are you?" I was "Jhonen Vasquez - you create all this fucked up shit". Apparently I cannot be a fictional character. ^_^ I don't mind that much.

Of success!

I finished coloring a picture with Photoshop! It's up on my homepage in the original art section. It's an art trade I did with Luke McKay. He did his version of my Coal picture and I drew his characters Blue and Green.

I'm really happy that I finished it, even though I managed to screw up with the last save and save the small version I had ment for a jpg on top of the original psd. So now I only have an older version of the original, big picture left, which means that it misses the last five hours of work and is thus unfinished. :tears:

Yes, I know I should be doing nanowrimo, but I'm happy I got this thing done!
