Under normal circumstances, this sounds like a blast (even if I have no clue what Steampunk is). However...I'd be so distracted, I wouldn't finish up any of the projects hammering on my back door for attention. ;-P If I'm blogging every day, I'm procrastinating from my "real" writing. That said, you'll have email shortly. ;-)

Good luck with it! I'm rooting you on and will be happy to help in whatever capacity I can!

*Gasp* you don't know what steam punk is!?!? look it up! now! grrr.

:D

whoopidee do! Seeing as I'm 'teh test subject' I'm in. :D

[silverjames]

I have. I still don't *get* it. Yes. I'm old. I'm hidebound. I'm clueless. And beyond H.G. Wells, it's not really my genre. *blinkblink*

[cperry]

eh, well, I can understand that. I just like some of the stuff because it looks cool.

[silverjames]

*chuckle* I have friends who think it's wonderful! The literature, the art, everything. They've tried to explain the appeal. I nod. I smile. I pretend I understand. They finally leave me alone. *wink* It probably doesn't help that they are half my age as a rule... (And you just thought I was kidding about being old...*gigglesnort*)

[cperry]

Oh no. I didn't think that at all. I just wondered at the strangeness of someone as *ahem* 'wise' as yourself being able to use the internet. I know my parents get concerned that I'll download a virus every time I go online.*sniggers*

[silverjames]

*LAUGHS* *refrains from bwapping the young whippersnapper* I use a Macbook, mostly, and no one bothers to write viruses for Mac OS. However, if you are curious, this is the first computer I owned, bought some twenty-plus years ago. *pbhth*

[cperry]

heh, I remember we had these at primary school (on the left) we upgraded to the ones on the right some years later.

I'm looking forward to seeing your blog. Thinking of loading up photos on mine, actually - do you know how to do it on lj?

[akwilliams]

You're awesome babe *grins* You're too busy and talented for my competition anyway. I hereby exclude you honourably.

[cperry]

what? wait! What?

why?

I need goals (sp?) what am I gonna dedicate my time to now? god knows my boss is a *explentive* idiot and I hate his guts for all his racist, sexist, idiot views on everything bar my job, but, I need something to keep me sane.

And whats this talk of being talented, I merely persist in the face of overwhelming odds.

or something. I'm drunk, and probably wouldn't rememeber even if I was sober.

You're awesome too, lil chris, but that comment was directed at Silver The Busy up there. You are still stuck with it. Get busy, boy!
