Monday come and gone. A little work done - not much, and I really should do more. Of course, now I have a lot of projects that will be breathing down my neck soon. So, I need to get efficient again, I suspect. Especially since I also need to get a summer job. Too much to do, too little time, really.
The battles over eros continue - at the moment, California's ban is unconstitutional, and the judge makes a rather smart statement about tradition. Just because it's tradition doesn't necessarily make it right. I pointed that out back in November when these things blew up on Election Night, with some examples that the trombone section understood immediately.
Of course, the real problem is, when someone takes one step forward, someone else takes two steps back. China, you're in the doghouse. Let it go - you're not going to risk World War Three, are you? Perhaps we should just turn their leaders into horses. Or perhaps force them into photography sessions like this one.
I do have some good stuff for you guys, after all. There's point-light figures in the BioMotion Walker. Just connect the dots, and see just how the figure really does reflect their characteristics. After you're done with that, just push play. And maybe after that, and a night's rest, you can Astrally Project and say hello to me. I probably won't notice, but you can do it anyway.
Yeah, that's it. Some more thesis revision's done, but I'll have papers coming due soon.
Ah, one last thing - a question set swiped from
greyweirdo:
1) Does my username suit me?
2) Is my journal's title cryptic or descriptive? What do you think it means?
3) Does my journal expand your knowledge of me?
4) Do you think my bio describes me well?
5) Which of my interests surprises you the least?
6) Which of my interests surprises you the most?
7) Which of my interests needs explaining?
8) Which of my userpics suits me best?
9) Which of my userpics suits me least?
10) Which of my userpics needs explaining?

Date: 2005-03-16 10:53 pm (UTC)7 - In order: 1000 Blank White Cards, Donkey Punch (now since disbanded, I believe), Kappa Kappa Psi, Krondor (probably with some spoiler-esque stuff), Ozymandias J. Llewellyn, and:
A short intro about pencil boards:
For those of you that don't know, "shitajiki" is the Japanese word for pencil boards.
The Japanese use these when they write. They put one under a piece of paper so that the pencil/pen doesn't leave marks on the pages underneath. Pencil boards are usually made of stiff plastic but there are also some made from stiff (almost cardboard-like) paper. In Japan, you can find them with many images on them, for example, Japanese anime characters, popular TV personalities or singers, movies, or popular characters like those from Disney.
I happen to collect them - sort of.
10 - The squidlet is actually one of many mini-C'thulhus that spawned out of the Happy Cloning Vat that Pitr Dubovich of User Friendly used, trying to create a clone of the actual Old One. That strip and others served as the creation of my Iliad For a Day submission last year that was a runner-up. The squidlet you see is one of the two that I took and enlarged. Larry, I believe, his name is.
