Hey there...
Well, I've got a bunch of projects lined up for me to do in a few months, and I have to get started on doing them. They are as follows.
Brick Wall Attempts (Short Stories)
Attempt No. 4: Memphis in Streams of Consciousness (for MFM)
Attempt No. 5: Gray Warming Over (for Historimorphs)
Attempt No. 6: Love In War (for New Tibet)
Attempt No. 7: The Way Things Are
Attempt No. 8: Untitled, or The Abortion Horror Story
Other things

Contributions to Sylvan's two Choose Yourn Own Adventure stories, "Changing Days" and "Larger Than Life" Both are actually pretty good. In "Larger Than Life", there are quite a few really phat seeds just begging to grow. :)
STAY OFF THE GOD-DAMNED MUCKS.
Read "Monkey" and more Ray Bradbury.
Save money.
Make travel arrangements to see Blackfeather.
Meanwhile, in completely unrelated news, my libido has suddenly grown to the size of a bull breaking stuff in a really small china shop. I fear it's reached the point of annoyance for me and several, long-suffering friends. <:) I can be such an asshole when slutting for macro. :) Not a lot happened this weekend; I gave up a chance to go to a local medieval LARP called DragonCrest so I could go to Springfest with an ex-roommate. Only she stood me up and ruined my weekend. Feh. I had fun indoors anyway. ;) I finally have a bicycle! The rear tire is flat, and I've got the inner tube for it...now I just have to figure out how to fix the damned thing. <:) I'm an artist, not a mechanic...help! Still feeling strung out and alienated from friends, but it hurts less now than it did. The pangs of regret run deep, but oddly enough I feel sort of content knowing that...well, they're doing OK. They're doing OK without me, of course, but they're doing OK. ;) Recently I've been alerted by two or three other people that my roommate thinks I'm too far gone into fantasy and don't deal with the real world well. That upsets me a bit because I think I've come a long way when it comes to dealing with reality, and seeing as we've both seen a particular individual who was much more far gone than I ever could be (he lived behind our couch for a few months), I don't know how he could look at me and say that. I really think he just doesn't like people, in general, who aren't like him. I have my faults, and I'm not the easiest person in the world to live with, but I do try, damnit, and he doesn't really respect that. The situation's getting...tense, again. I'll have to do something about it, but I don't know what to do that'll make it stick. Well, short of moving out. But none of us want that. I'm going to try the whole 'pretending I'm poor' thing to save as much money as possible before the con season. I was doing pretty good there for a while, up to $400, before I blew a lot of it on comics, music and gaming books. <;) Now I'm down to $100, and I'm pretty sure I can get to $500 before June if I play my cards right, probably more. I'm still not sure about going to AC. This sudden distance from a lot of friends will make it...interesting to say the least. I'm trying my best to be casual about it, but there's still this little gnawing fear inside me that says I won't have fun; which would suck, because of all the cons AC is the most expensive for me to go to. I guess I'll just have to take it on faith and just...have a good time...instead of *trying* to have a good time. I think too much. :) I think I'll nap for a bit, get up, brew some tea and if it's still raining I'll get to work on the MFM story. If it's sunny, I'll play mini-golf and *then* get to work on the MFM story. :)
