Absence makes the heart grow fonder?
Aug. 18th, 2007 05:57 pmSo...I haven't checked my flist in about two weeks. (I think.) I have no idea what's going on with anyone. Sorry! How are you all? :)
Nothing terribly exciting has happened; we had a garage sale, a couple of my friends are back in town (returning from such exotic locales as Ecuador and Iowa), Katie and I finished off Magnificent Seven, I found a very nice fountain pen in my granny's garage -- stuff like that. At the moment, I have somehow managed to obtain a head cold in the middle of August in Texas, which is more than a little ridiculous. The fact that it's probably not a common head cold, having been imported from Ecuador by our friend Marta, is no comfort to me, because I still feel like crap on a stick.
Um...I've been writing a little, but nothing exciting, although I did find a text file named "ffzoewash" (which means "Firefly fic involving Zoe and Wash"). When I opened it, all it has was the line "Zoe never would have fallen in love with Wash if his moustache hadn't caught fire one day." I have no memory of writing this, but it's a great opening, isn't it? :)
The current obsession is making icons. It's kind of addictive; why did no one ever warn me about that? It appeals simultaneously to my perfectionism, my impulse to make pretty things, and my fannish tendencies, which is a deadly combination. At the moment, I'm making a bunch of Mag7 icons. (There may be Firefly and Sports Night quotes involved.) Calvin & Hobbes are next.
