Hello! It's been a while. I gave up on "revamping" my old website and started a WordPress instead. And I've decided to make that my main blog for now. Forget all the Tumblrs, Bloggers, Livejournals, etc. Find me at http://alymcf.wordpress.com/

After 10/22/13 I won't have a paid LJ account. It's an acknowledgement that I don't use it much anymore. I'm planning on revamping my main website (which is currently stuck in 1995), and you can also find me on Facebook (PM me if you want to be friends) and Ravelry. I expect I'll still post here occasionally and look at my friends page sometimes. ( Read more... )

I haven't posted in a while, and I just shut down my Facebook role play account (over 1500 "friends" and no time for 'em), so somehow my thoughts turned to this long neglected journal. I've been blogging on my regular blog occasionally, and using Facebook, but haven't been very active on Tumblr or Twitter or Plurk or any of that ( Read more... )

This was supposed to be a 100 Things meme but I found it on my desktop and realized I'd better stop with the 28 things I could think of easily or I'd never get it posted. So here it goes:

First let me just say that I have no idea how I'm going to get through this day. I'm coming down with this nasty virus that's been going around. I am supposed to go to acupuncture, volunteer in my child's classroom for a couple of hours, and finish getting the house ready for my mom who is coming to visit for a week starting tonight. On the bright ( Read more... )

It's been a while! I have to apologize if I haven't been responsive to your posts. See for months I was watching an extremely busy LJ comm that was filling up 95% of the bandwidth on my Friends page. Often I was so overwhelmed by it that I just didn't even go to LJ. So now that I've stopped watching that comm, I can visit my Friends page again, at ( Read more... )

I just got Pandora Hearts volume 10 and hope to post a bit about it this week. If it contains scans it will be Friends Only.

I'm listening to the new Sigur Rós album...good background music, よ。

And...I'm trying not to freak out over the fact that someone is coming to steam clean our carpet tomorrow. I was in my kid's room an hour ago pulling ( Read more... )

Last week I had reason to take out a diary of mine from 1987, from when I was a freshman in college. Back then I was doing all these cool things, and I dragged out the diary because I'm helping a curatorial intern compile info for a future museum show. (Let's side step the fact that one day I may look back and be forced to admit that the only thing ( Read more... )

Many a day I come walking up to an intersection where I have to wait to cross. I look on one side of the street and think, "Maybe I'll go to that coffee shop." Then I look on the other side of the street, and think, "No, maybe I'll go to that coffee shop." I can't decide, so I let the Walk light decide for me; whichever light allows me to walk ( Read more... )

Just got volume 8 of Pandora Hearts and this week I plan to share some tidbits from it, but I will friends lock them for security/paranoia purposes, so friend me if you want to see!

Beyond that, I have been busy. Mostly been busy being in pain, and dealing with the snow that hit Seattle last week and then quickly turned to slush. I am still selling ( Read more... )
