![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) kikithepirate, wentsch, flyspeck, ty guys so so much for trying to help me today at work. none of your advice helped, lol, but that's because mike discovered that what i was trying to do wouldn't work because of the program that created the videos. but i really appreciated you guys stopping what you were doing to try and help me out.
today, as a work day, sort of sucked. i found out that my internship wont be extended, though my supervisor seems kind of upset about it. then today was another wikitrial, and my post got deleted again. then was the mishap with the videos, so i spent all day working, yet produced nothing. w/e w/e. but yes, so all the help you guys gave me was the highlight of my day. ty.

Pretty much this is just a general collective ground for all my stuff. I wanted to have my usual username on IJ as well even though I doubt I'm actually going to use this for a blog since I have two others that don't get updated all that much. Because I doubt I'm going to friend anybody on here, I probably won't reblog anything over here unless it's super important and I feel for some reason it needs to be shared with the riffraff that spends it's time on this website. Blah blah, yadda yadda. Don't blame me for wasting your time reading this.

| That thing everyone else did. |
[02 Dec 2009|11:00pm] |
1. My username is ______ because ______: ~texmas, because "Texmas" was my nickname in Boston. Everyone teased me about being from Texas, because as we all know, people from New England think that people from below the mason dixon line ride horses to school. And that our dads are all named Bubba. Wait...
shit.
Anyway, one girl there would call me "Texas," then she started calling me "Texmas" while pretending to be unsure of the proper pronunciation. So I called her "Massemachusetts." Anyway, we all got to be good buddies, but they still call me Texmas.
2. My name is _____ because ______: ~'Lesbian Yellow-Sour-Fruit,' because I love 30 Rock, and that's the author's name that Liz Lemon's book was illegally published under in China. I thought it was pretty amazing.
3. My journal is titled ____ because ____: ~'Wish On Space Hardware,' largely because of the song, "A New England," by Billy Bragg. I adore that song, and it's such a good Matt/Becky song. Hell, it's a good Snape/Lily song. Also because it reminded me of Doctor Who, and because nothing else would fit in the space provided on my layout. I thought about making it ~Gynecologist Wotsit in honor of CM's Sirius Black, but it didn't fit as well.
4. My default userpic is ____ because ____: A cool icon in which Four is going all WTF? Before that, It was my icon of Eleven, because THE ELEVENTH DOCTOR IS SECRETLY REMUS LUPIN. It is decided.

TWO THINGS (sajdhsakd, why did I type two thighs first?)! Thing 1: I AM NOT GETTING NOTIFS FROM COMMUNITIES. I don't know why, I don't know how to fix it, but it's irritating me greatly.
Thing 2:
1. My username is ______ because ______: taz_means_crazy because I get told I'm crazy a lot. Back when I first made it, it was strictly RPG related stuff, character profiles and such, right, so it made sense. I'd like to change it now, but buying a rename token doesn't seem worth it.
2. My name is _____ because ______: Since my username includes my name, I use the name section for random lyrics. Currently it's I am just a speck of dusk inside a giant's eye~ which is from I Like Giants by Kimya Dawson, which is ♥.
3. My journal is titled ____ because ____: I am not an angry girl but it seems like I've got everyone fooled / no I want to be more than a pretty girl Ani DiFranco lyrics which I just really like..
4. My default userpic is ____ because ____: Stop sign graffitied to say DON'T STOP LOVIN, which I think is kind of awesome.

The Black Crowes - Been A Long Time (Waiting on Love) |
] |
I told myself I was going to organize my music collection when I quit NaNo. My C: drive is getting too full, and I discovered by accident a while ago that Winamp seems to be ripping music files to the wrong directory when I import a CD, so not only is some of the music on my C: drive, but a lot of the music on the external drive is in the wrong place. Plus a little while back I stopped spending money at iTunes and started buying my music at Amazon.com (1. they do 50 albums a month for $5, 2. the files are non-DRM MP3s, 3. I got annoyed at Apple) and the Amazon.com files have been downloading to the C:/users/user/music/ folder. GRAR! I'm not looking forward to this task, though, because I imagine I'll have to redo my playlists. I have a lot of playlists...like at least 250 by my estimate. *headdesk*
![[info]](http://s.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png) cm_exchange has started posting! And the first fic is such a good one! I'm very excited about it this year. We have something like 38 fics, which is a lot more than last year, and everyone's been so great!
It was dark when I left the house this morning for work. It was almost dark before I left work, and it was dark when I got home. Thank goodness I sat in the car at lunchtime or I wouldn't have seen the sun at all today. I want a Ribbon Lamp for Christmas. It's supposed to be people who suffer from SAD, and though I've never done anything but self-diagnosis, I think I would benefit.
I really hope I can sleep tonight. Over the past two nights I've gone to bed and just lain awake for a couple hours, followed by several hours of restless sleep and/or bad dreams. On the plus side, I've made a lot more progress in Joe Mantegna's reading of The Godfather. I walked around all day thinking about Franco Brazzi and wondering if Michael Corleoni really would go through with his plan. (I still feel sorry for Khartoum though.)
The Black Crowes have a new album out and I just discovered this thanks to Amazon's big music sale on Black Friday. The Black Crowes make me happy. I think Dave Rossi would like them.

1. My username is ______ because ______: a_chr0i because it is. it is my handle almost everywhere. a chroi "uh KREE", is an irish term of endearment, roughly translating to "my heart." mie's otp character to mine used to call her that. so yeah, it is not pronounced 'ah kroy", but "uh kree"!
2. My name is _____ because ______: "apple spyder obama, from a womb with cat disease" because all night chats lead to some crazy shit. i am pronto's baby, and flyspeck is my twin. i am the pretty twin, and he is the jewish twin. the cat womb comes from the STARTLING FACT that apparently cats can be pregnant with the babies of separate fathers ATE THE SAME TIME WOAH.
3. My journal is titled ____ because ____: blank. cause it's like my soul. jk i just dont have one.
4. My default userpic is ____ because ____: part of the boston skyline because a) it is beautiful and b) i see that skyline every time i cross over the charles river into cambridge to go to job #2. the big building on the right is the prudential center. in boston, you call it the pru.

Sometimes I don't even know why I really do roleplay at times. I mean, I enjoy the games and everything I'm in PSL-wise and everything but I found out that I let myself get walked over at times when it comes to role-playing. And what I mean by that is I am quick not to let myself try to pick a side when it comes to things and I wish to be everybody's friend. So when someone asks me to take a char, usually I will. And not that I mind. Otherwise I wouldn't have fallen in love with Nicodemus or Flora or Michèle like I have. Also if not for that, I never would have tried my hand at Ted, but sometimes I feel like I allow myself to be a pushover. I know I'm not...but maybe I need to learn to say no more often.
That in mind, I found out about Joy's new game and talked to her about it for a bit via email. I was actually pleased to hear her side of the story about BW closing, since I didn't know that was the actual reason for it's demise and I really do feel sorry that she had to go through what she did with the drama and all that. It seems like a low blow to do just that and it frustrates me that people could act like that. I mean, we always get told in games not to cross the IC | OOC line too, so wouldn't the same thing be applicable with a Mod and the person in general? They are two separate professions but yet people are rash to assume the two are one and of the same.
The same applies to players actually. Sure we play our characters and we adore them and love them, but that doesn't mean we are them. So, if a player does something wrong in a game, are we supposed to be mad at them as a personal in general solely because they may have ruined a plotline you had or the thread didn't go as plan? NO. They have emotions outside of the game. They have lives outside of the game. And it's really that immaturity which frustrates me at times.
Hopefully it'll get better over time, but I have my doubts to say the least.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am now a three-time NaNoWriMo winner. Now I just need to edit the hell out of The Fangirl's Guide to Life and finish doing the first draft of Better Than Truth.
