Today is a day that I am happy

1. I just finished the rough draft of the final part of my Kink Meme fic. And it's not even horrendously-rough, just normal-rough. I'M GOING TO FULFILL A COMMITMENT, GUYS. I FEEL SO RESPONSIBLE. Only problem is, now I have to figure out a title. CURSES.

2. One more test tomorrow, then I'm done! I'm going to knit a blanket over break, because that's what industrious people do when they can't sleep from the cold.

3. I'm finally getting my comment notifications! LJ Status says the system should be all caught up in the next few hours. Yizzay.

4. JUST SO Y'ALL KNOW, I sent Ryan North, the creator of Dinosaur Comics, a slightly modified, much bigger version of my poster. (The T-Rex on the poster is a character from Dinosaur Comics, jsyk.)

Here's what I said:

To: Ryan North
Subject: James T. Kirk vs. T-Rex (a concept that will improve your life)

My Dear Esteemed Mr. North,

The final assignment for my art class was to design a poster
advertising an event. I believe the poster I came up with is relevant
to your interests. I hope you enjoy it, and THANK YOU for creating
Dinosaur Comics and being an all-around enjoyable person.

Sincerely,
Kaylie

P.S. I got an A+ and a smiley face. That means you and William Shatner
are the best inspirations ever.
P.P.S. The image is sized correctly to print a 12"x18" poster, if you
think your walls look a little bare.

Ryan North gets a huge amount of e-mails and can't answer them all, but not eight hours later I got a response:

Kaylie this is AMAZING and I think strokes some subconsciouses itch I never knew I had. I rate it an A++ with TWO smiley faces!!

He is basically the sweetest and most awesome guy in the world. He's also Canadian. Admittedly I am drawing on prejudice and stereotype here but I don't think that is a coincidence. Please don't take this as an invitation to tell me stories about Canadians who are stupid and mean. Santa isn't real, ok, I HAVE TO BELIEVE IN SOMETHING. :(
