05:37 pm missmonstermel [Link]	A strange bracer/cuff i made today. One of two! More info and photos here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/missmonstermel/sets/72157616231971046/ More sketch commissions! Working on the rest tomorrow. Hey and i WILL be at Midwest Furfest in two weeks in the Dealer's Room. I'll have all kind of goodies including wood cut outs, etched glass and Tentatiger toys since it's a local con and i can bring whatever i want. I will also have printed hoodies, shirts, scarves, leather work, patches etc etc and will probably be doing sketch commissions. Please come on by the table and say hello! :) Also just a heads up. I finally lost my battle with not getting sick and came down with something yesterday after being mildly sick and then totally fine for the past two weeks or so. I will do my best to get things out on time but cut me a little slack since i feel pretty awful, haha. :P All i want to do is lie on the couch and cough, ugh. (Leave a comment)

Don't know if it works or not. I have a web cam of sorts, but haven't tested it yet. Current Mood: curious (Leave a comment)

05:58 am naamah_darling [Link]	FYI Hey, guys. Lately (by this I mean both the last week and to some extent, the past year or more) I've been all about cats and whatall else I don't even know, but it's certainly not incisive, witty social commentary and four-alarm swearing, and for that I want to . . . I don't know. Apologize, I guess. But Naamah, you will protest, it's your journal. You don't have to apologize for jack shit! And you would be right about that. But I really do wish I had the spoons to get into the 36 pages of thinky feminist shit I have written and just haven't posted yet. I wish I had the spoons to add to the 14 pages on mental illness I already have. I wish I had even one spoon to begin excavating the hideous morass of my thoughts on gender and sexuality, since I have only the vaguest idea what's under there, myself. I want to do more, and I just don't have the energy for it. I'm tired most of the time. I don't have energy for my own creative crap right now. It's taking me three days to answer email. I have filtered things so that I'm only reading about a third of my f-list, and only barely skimming that. Have you even looked at my comments? I hardly say anything, I barely respond to anyone. And it's not because I don't care. It's just because I'm this bizarre sort of exhausted. I don't know. Burnt-out? I'm not in a bad place emotionally or anything. I am actually far less depressed than I have been. Still, I'm sure not at my best in terms of what I am getting accomplished. I feel bad about that. Right now I am dead tired and need to brush my teeth and go to sleep so I can get up bright and early tomorrow and try to finish this goddamn art project before it kills me. And I will try to dig up something interesting and meaningful to talk about. (36 comments \| Leave a comment)

03:00 am naamah_darling [Link]	Halp for very special sick kitteh. Okay, so siliconshaman has taken in this cat. Griselda. This . . . this brave little mess of a cat. She's doing pretty well, but she needs medical care before she can be adopted out. She is blind and FIV-positive, and probably also has hypertension. There are shelters that might take her, but only if she is healthy (as healthy as a blind cat with FIV can be, since neither of those things is going to go away). Right now she has a probably-benign tumor on her shoulder that needs to be removed and checked out, and she needs some more blood tests. This is not free stuff. Griselda . . . well, she looks like my Mocus. She was taken in when she was in a pretty sorry state, let me tell you, but she is doing well, gaining weight, and all that. She just needs a little more care to make it all the way and make her as adoptable as a disabled kitty can be. Nothing that is wrong with her is a death sentence. Nothing that is wrong with her means that she doesn't have many good and loving years left in her. Some stories really get to you. This one gets to me. I would really like to see her helped. So any help you could give would be welcome. There are pictures of her here and here. That second link is to pics right after she was taken in and cleaned up, so she looks pretty pitiful, and there's one pic that's slightly icky because it shows a small wound, so if that would be upsetting to you, maybe just check out the first link. She's beautiful. Even in a sorry state, she's beautiful. And she deserves a chance. Story here, continues here. If you can donate a little, please do. Donations are being taken via Paypal here and here. If you are in England, specifically Yorkshire, and can offer a disabled kitty a home, please consider doing so. Special-needs kitties are as easy to love as any other kitty. If you are not in England and can't donate, boost the signal, would you? Helping one cat is never helping "just one cat." It's making a difference. A small, furry difference. Current Location: Arcadia, MO Current Mood: hopeful Tags: animals, cats, halp (16 comments \| Leave a comment)

10:27 pm shecountscrows [Link]	aha...Craig's List love poetry! It's pretty bad. But he put it out into public , so here it is, as posted. Today, in honour of my having actual free time, I indulged in a bit of Craigslist browsing, and thus, a bit of tender poesy culled from the RI "Missed Connections" section. ~~~~~~ I saw you today, at Borders... I saw you yesterday at the Borders near Emerald Square, You sat typing on you're laptop you were wearing a scarf, and you were one of the most beautiful girls I have ever seen. Once as you stood up, you accidentially spilled your iced coffee it was my opportunity to swing in, napkin in hand being smooth and suave and offer to buy you another coffee however I'm poor I have a girlfriend and there's no way any creature as extraodinary as you would fall for a guy like me. ~~~~~~ Oh, that Craig's list poetry. sigh dear author. If you're that unhappy, don't dream-cheat at the mall, and then write "poetry" for Missed Connections to see if you've got "a shot". (because, come on. That's exactly what you're doing here.) Take action: Break up with your girlfriend. Then you can approach the girls you long to date honestly, and she can seek someone faithful, who is perhaps also employed, and aware of the difference between your and you're. A few other fun CL Missed Connection entries under the cut.. ( Nicki, you know the last one on this list is just for you, girl. ) Tags: poetry fridays (2 comments \| Leave a comment)

Pretty cool! :D (11 comments \| Leave a comment)
10:37 pm officialgaiman [Link]	Final Reminder for Bookshops http://journal.neilgaiman.com/2009/11/final-reminder-for-bookshops.html posted by Neil A quick reminder (as I was just asked) that today is the day that the bookshop Graveyard Book party reports have to be in to Harper Collins. By 9 pm PST. http://files.harpercollins.com/Mktg/HarperChildrens/PDF/GraveyardContest_rules.pdf are the rules and info for those who lost them. Hi Mr. Gaiman, I was disappointed today to read you won't be part of the judging for The Graveyard Book contests. My not-wealthy, middle-of-nowhere bookstore just sent in its entry, and something we're concerned about is the fairness of judging. For example, independent bookstores like Powell's (I'm sure you know) easily have enough money and are in a convenient enough location to ask you to come at one time or another. Against stores like that, who were able to put more money into their parties, we stand little chance. I don't think that it's a lost cause for us; we were very creative. I'm just nervous to know you won't be judging. Can you tell me whether you think the judges will take things like size and location of bookstores into account? It would make me sleep a little easier until the results are announced. Tusen takk, Allison Well, per the rules, the judging is based on: (i) Overall creativity of the Party, as demonstrated by the invitations, signage, decorations, activities, entertainment, and refreshments. (ii) Customer attendance and response (i.e., enthusiasm, costumes, participation). (iii) Ability to capture and represent the spirit of The Graveyard Book. ...specifically to reward creativity, and not the ability to outspend other shops. (That was also why the party had to actually be at the bookshop, and not at another location.) I asked my editor, Elise Howard, and she said, Gosh, yes. Here's what we think is happening. We are looking at all the entries. On Monday, we'll send you the best 11, from which you will choose the Grand Prize Winner. The rest will get the first-prize package. So the short answer is that you ARE helping to choose. The longer answer is that we will be very fair and will consider creativity, which includes work done with available resources, along with pure execution. (Don't you think? We haven't done anything yet; still waiting for more entries to come in.) ...which means that a) I was wrong and will be the ultimate judge, from the shortlist. (Damn.) and b) everyone's on a level playing field. Does that help reassure you? PS -- Widgett's Graveyard Book Dessert competition winners have been announced over at http://www.needcoffee.com/2009/11/06/graveyard-book-dessert-challenge-winners/. This one had NOTHING to do with me at all. But lor' the winning desserts look tasty... Labels: The Graveyard Book Halloween Party Competition (Leave a comment)
