die spawn of SATAN!

AD...um...*aquired* a copy of Doom 3. He's playing it now. Seems very intense. The whole flashlight/gun thing seems kinda evil on the designers part. The ambiant screams are freaking me out just sitting over here. I'll probably end up playing it at some point, I mean, it's DOOM! He found the shotgun, my favorite game weapon of all time.

Train to Maine tomorrow niiiiiiiiiiight! Got my hair trimmed today, nothing spectacular, just back to the length I can control. Still able to do a mini-ponytail, but now the ends don't flip up in all directions. Need to start packing. I should do that after I post this...riiiiiight.

unfortunately I'm not gonna get to enter my icon contests for this week. :-( I've been just leaving Photoshop open all week, with all the caps loaded, and then whenever inspiration struck, I'd work on one. But as I'll be in Maine when it strikes, looks like I'll just be writing down ideas again (yes, I did this on the car ride up to NJ, wrote down quotes and pics I wanted to use for icons...though I still haven't actually made them....but still).

oh - get this - I won the lightspeed award over at starwars_stills for this pretty: yay!

HHGTTG turns 25!

I want this but do I need it? I wishlisted it, because it will make an easy Xmas present. I have so many copies of HHGTTG. When I was working at the library, every time they WI'ed one, I'd take it. So I have pretty much all of the versions. But this one has pictures. And pictures from the *gasp* upcoming movie.

just finished a handful of icons for contests...fatexsucks created dlm_stillness so now I have a Dead Like Me icon contest to play with each week. I still need to finish packing, I was in the middle of getting my bag together and AD physically dragged me to the computer and made me play Doom 3. That game is FREAKY! I don't remember Doom actually being scary. But this one is very 1st person Resident Evil, with lots of darkness and things jumping out at you. I haven't played an FPS since they became complicated. As soon as the mouse got involved, I quit playing computer games. I could never handle it. That's how this Doom game is too, mouse controls, keypad, reload button, flashlight button....oh it's crazy.

And I agreed to babysit tomorrow yet again. So I have to be there at 8:45. YUCK! Guess that means I'll probably pass out on the train tomorrow. Maybe I won't shower in the morning and just wait until I get home to shower, since the kids won't care if I'm icky. Oh but I'll care. Drat.

Ah well, this is probably it until I get back from Maine! Toodles
