My day was actually pretty good, and there's no real reason for me to feel this way...but today in the parking lot, as I was leaving school, my work posse said something to me that made me snap.  It was something innocent, something silly, something that no one could ever guess would get under my skin the way it did.  So I can't blame them.

But it ( Read more... )

So my laptop - a Lenovo T61 - is apparently broken.  The screen no longer works.  It's been flickering a little the past week or so...then it got a lot worse yesterday, at which point I brought it to my father's attention (he works for IBM...he's a software engineer, but he assists me with all my computer issues).  He told me to wait until it ( Read more... )

• 29 Rogue
• 14 Rogue and Gambit

In an attempt to organize myself, I've decided to make a list of stuff to do.  Even though I hate lists.

Fanfics I'm in the process of writing:

• "Possession" - my X-Men AU fic that takes place in a LOTR-type setting...I'm half-way through the next chapter....epic battle coming up.
• "So Impossible" - just one more chapter left!  But I can't seem to get ( Read more... )

So...I've been gone a long time - 17 weeks by LJ's count.

I'm not sure anyone even noticed that I stopped posting, but I'm back, and ready to rock...

( Where the hell did I go...? )

For anyone out there who follows X-Comics, I thought I'd pass this link along: Floating Hands Studios - Comic Book Parodies.

It hasn't been updated in a while...but man are these things funny...

Or, if that's not your bag of chips...care to try the Twilight Saga in puppet form?

Seriously.  Check it out:

It's been a rough week...already.  Not excessively difficult, just busy.  Especially since our principal told us only last Thursday that he wants us all to have our own websites/blogs.  So I spent most of the weekend fighting with CSS/HTML and Photoshop.  And today I went to the wake of the student who died last week...that was really hard.  No one ( Read more... )

I know I've been gone a while...lots of real-life stuff to deal with. But I'm back now, and hopefully I won't get lazy about posting.

Semi-recent life updates:

• My school's play was a success - everyone was amazing, and my non-dancer dancers performed beautifully. I'm so proud of the entire cast and crew for their hard work and dedication. And ( Read more... )

So...Valentine's Day was a huge success. I got dressed up, curled my hair, wore make up...and um...went to work. And then school. Still, I had an awesome day - I even managed to sneak "Star Wars" into my lesson (we're talking about cloning). Appropriately enough, once again, students complimented my Princess Leia-ishness, even though Princess ( Read more... )

I really don't understand how parents can complain about their children's grades at the end of the marking period.  Don't get me wrong - I'm all about communication and extra help and the like - but after receiving a progress report that states something to the effect that their child has a 33 average and is in danger of failing the marking period ( Read more... )
