mornin' Imponderables.

*glomps the hell outta the hippie* Missed ya babe, I hope all is well.

I haven't tried to get on all week, but it looks like I didn't miss much. I am glad that the downtime/slowness isn't nearly as bad as it once was.

Hey guys! Can I imponderable for a while? I'm very bored at work.

Hmm, little things verses big things? Avoiding for a moment the obvious innuendo (it's more difficult for me to do this than you will ever know!), I'd say that I have learned to accept the little guestures of appreciation as no guy I have even been close to has ever made a grand romantic statement or action without prompting. Not tarring all men as prosaic and emotionally oblivious. Just most!

No, that was the layman's explanation. The techno-babble one is that within all the wireless connections consisting of super-charged particles, there has been a buildup of non-charged particles that contain no information what-so-ever. So yeah, gunk.

Oh, and here's something for you all, that might make you laugh- Remember, if the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off.

I hate it when life is mean to my favorite Browncoats. Heartfelt hugs from me, Jimi, and hope you get time to yourself to unwind this weekend.

I have the house to myself this weekend so am about to put some music on, take a book into the bath with me, light some candles, drink some wine and eat some chocoalte.

It's true what they say, women rule at multitasking!

I know, I came and went and then was seemingly gone again... just... so... busy.... year... almost... over... but.... not... quite.

But yeah, another few days and I'll be free of first year o' college and off to Burbank for awesome internship-ness at Cartoon Network. So assuming I actually study for my finals (like i'm not doing now), life is seeming pretty good. And I also recently made a ladyfriend, I don't know where that will go with summer coming and us not living in the same part of the state until next school year, but gotta love a woman who'll play scrabble online with you in the wee hours of the morning.

So I will come back, really. But for the moment, must... go... work... on essay... and then study for finals. That's The Plan.

Hope you all are well. :)

Not bad, not bad... well... ok, sort of bad, but I finished and sent in my essay, so that's done and done. So i'll be all finished by tuesday evening. Which is nice. But now I need to study for my two finals on tuesday, and I'm slacking off in post-essay euphoria right now. Sooner or later I'll get back on the studying horse.

Summer... yeah, admitedly I'll have aforementioned internship, but it's part time so I plan to leave tons of time to mess around, work on my writing and try to learn guitar. That's The Plan. But still, finals. Blah. Anyway.

I hear you about summer plans. I have soooo many things I would like to be doing right now if I had the time or energy - like finishing knitting Jayne hats for my nephews, finishing writing the fanfiction story I started two years ago, go chase snakes and then publish an article about how they're getting on, make jewellry from my snazzy new 'how to..' book, help out a friend on his ambitious proper flying 4ft scale model of Serenity project, finish my embroidery project of a signed framed picture of each of the BDHs (got most of the signatures but not finished the cross-stitches yet)..... and many many more projects whirling around my head.

You never know, I might actually finish something some day!

Any-one else got any interesting 'projects' on the go or on the drawing board?

Learning a guitar sounds like fun! What writing do you do Whitefall?

Well, the idea is screenwriting, that's why I'm at cartoon network and that's what I'd like to do as a career, thanks in no small part to firefly. Television, i mean. It's a good long-form medium, and I'm not as fond of books as people would think, since i'm an enlish major now. (Film at UCLA is a junior level major.) But since I decided on that path I really havent had the time (I have had the time, but... you know how it is, during the school year I get really distracted and... mind you distracted with stuff like class and homework. but yeah, it doesnt work out well.) so i need to work on stuff, just in general. short films if i want to pitch them to the film club, or television episodes if i want to practice that.

and guitar... no one forced me to an instrument from a young age, which makes me sad. i sing, but i want to take up something, and i have a guitar now, but likewise during the year i just dont have time (not to mention roommates) to whip it out and mess around. so hopefully summer will be better, with the internship being part-time and all. we shall see.

Ugh, i REALLY should be studying or sleeping. at present i'm doing neither. blah.

Hallo all. Apparently I also missed the down time. Stupid work.

Whitefall, did I totally miss when you moved down to UCLA? Either that or I've forgotten. I've been driving past there two or three times a week since January, and I was on the campus last December for the Nutcracker. Small world, eh?

Congrats on the internship at Cartoon Network. I used to have a few friends who worked over there, but it's been a couple of years. Part time is probably a good thing, but they will work you like a dog, I'm sure. :P

So how are you liking LA, anyway? The more time I spend in the city, the more I both hate it and love it. I don't think I'll ever be able to live anywhere else -- though my boss and my husband are making plans to start a vineyard in northern California in 10 years or so, lol. (I'll just sit over here and be techy. I'm sure the vineyard will need computers, right? Webpage? Stable wifi? Something? Right?? Hehe.)

Anyhow, I'm just stopping by to say hi. That job went to hell in a handbasket since the last time I was here -- they passed on me as Lead, despite the fact that I'd been doing the job (without the salary) for five months, and instead hired a guy who is 30 years older than me but has less than half my experience in this area, who likes to try to micro-manage me (this is not the boss mentioned above -- the woman I was reporting to before this little shift is still awesome and is still pissed off at the execs for passing on me, and I hope to work with her again on something).

So yeah, I'm going to make myself tough it out until the end of the month, because I'm a grown up and it's good for me not to cut-and-run every time things start going to shit. The loyalty I have to a couple of people there and this exercise in character building is about all I have left. The money is nice, but not really worth it at this point. :P

My health is doing ok, back on my diet pretty hardcore and it seems to be helping. That and the sunshine. I love summer in So Cal.

So where has everyone run off to, anyway??

Austin. You know we gots sunshine here too? Just sayin.

Good to hear about your health and way to go with sticking it out a bit at work. I feel the same sort of dedication to the people I work with. Not so much the management or the company, but I like the people I work with and I wouldn't want to leave them high and dry. (apparently low and wet is the preferred state of being) I was just telling one of my co-workers how if I won the lottery I wouldn't quit right away cause I know it would just hurt the co-workers that I like. So, I'd stick around to train a replacement and make a smoother transition.

At least it seems like I can actually reply today. Yesterday the site was being a pain again.

I TOTALLY FIXED MY OWN CAR. the boyfriend (mechanic) pinpointed it as a computer problem, so we took it apart and found out that one of the resistors had gone *POP* and thats what was making it run weird >< so i looked at it and was like "...u know, i've unsoldered circuits before..i bet i could fix that if we had a soldering iron." so andy volunteered the soldering iron from his shop, we picked up some solder and the proper resistor (all have different values of course, gotta make sure u got the right one) and i successfully removed the burned one and installed the new one, and like magic my car works again ^_^ i's so proud of myself. *does a woodstock dance and blows through the roof* I'M OKAY!! ^_^

Yeah, it sucks, but I'm mostly over it. As I told my boss (the nice lady boss, not the stupid old guy they hired instead of me) recently, I'm bothered by all of it but I'm not willing the spend the energy to go from bothered to angry.

And no need to kill anyone. ;) They'll be reapin' what they've been sowin' pretty quick here. Also, the joy of being a contractor -- I've already pitched another project to a different company. It was very well received. Now I have to write it all up so we can get the artists working on it, so that we can start shopping it around to investors, so that these guys can pay me. Thankfully I don't actually have to stay with the crappy company until the good company can pay me. :P

So yeah, I'm doing ok with all the crappy work stuff. That said, it probably wasn't he best week to make 5 dozen peanut butter cookies for me and no one else...

Edited to add: FLT, that's awesome! Very very impressive.

Oh life is a strange thing for me right now. Because near as I can tell, just about everything is going good. (This may change tomorrow when I pack up everything and leave campus living until september, and move to Burbank temporarily, but still). Finals are done... I probably got a B in a few of my classes, but frankly I had a good enough GPA my first two college quarters that it was useful when I needed it, namely applying for internships. Even if my GPA suffers, my resume aint as empty no more. :)

CK, indeed you probably missed my announcement... uh... yeah, sometime last year when I said "woo i'm going to UCLA" and then I went there and stopped posting on here for a long while. :( But yeah, I know what you mean about the love-hate of this city, I mean it's nice, and its got all the cool stuff, but it's also dirty and nasty and angry. But what can ya do, tis where I do my schoolin'.

And MSB, that's the other thing that is going uncharacteristically well, except of course that having met aforementioned lovely lady, we then get to spend six weeks at least apart. Which will suck. But we'll always have scrabble. At any rate, it was a strange thing, I was hanging out with her last night, and upon the advice of my manly roommate who had been in a long term relationship, (and given what I learned from my last relationship where she emailed me wondering if I was going to kiss her) I was thinking of kissing her, because apparently that's what people do after a few weeks, keeping the relationship moving. But when I finally managed to ask her (I have this thing about consent, it's the only way I kiss) and she was totally baffled.

Turns out I read her wrong, she wasn't signaling that I should move faster, she in fact is just as confused about this whole dating thing as I am, for all that she's older. And so rather than awkwardly kissing, we just talked, for hours, and for the first time in my life I felt like I could talk about what I felt, what I was thinking, to the other person in the relationship. It always bugs me when you feel like the one person you can't talk to is the person in the relationship with you, to keep up appearances and such. So we talked about stuff, and how we wanted to move the relationship, how slowly in this case, because there's just the two of us and it's just our business. So... it was a good day. A long day, granted, I was up for about 22 hours and took two finals that morning, but a very good day.

Is it strange of me to be concerned that my life is apparently going well at the moment?

Tequila. Straight. There's a real polite drink. You keep drinking until you finally take one more and it just won't go down. Then you know you've reached your limit.

ZEEK


Yay it's Friday. I'm glad this week is almost over. Seems like it's been a long one.

And double yay that mean girl I told you guys about before is leaving next week. So, all I have to do is play nice for the going away junk this weekend and she'll be gone for good. I only planned on stopping by her little pot luck but now I think I might go to the happy hour tonight as well. There's a cute redheaded intern around these parts who might be there. I only met her briefly a few weeks ago and her personality didn't impress then but I figure the cute and redhead part earns her a second chance.

Cute? Red-headed?

If she offers you a glass of wine and a floral head-dress, DON'T DANCE WITH HER!!
