I couldn't think of a subject. Let's see here. Well the ezine is going alright. I'm writing an article for National novel writing month, I've started it 45 times still haven't gotten it to flow right. I've got all the information it's just in my delivery. I've been made staff for at least one possible two anime sites, one has a strong potential for payment one is writing reviews, the other is converting videos. I had one place tell me my review was too short even though it was twice the length of the ones they had listed on the site which I used as a model for my sample per their request. Not to mention the attitude was place nasty, so I'm glad I decided not to write for them. Luckily membership is free to that site so I didn't have to worry about cancelling. my burn is doing much better, I'm not really allowed to cook rice anymore though, still it wasn't all that bad judging from the scar it was only 3rd degree still it's not in the best of places and as long as I don't wear low cut shirts for the next several years, it isn't even noticible. Andrew started school, is doing well, I have a doc appointment with my primary on thursday at the most ungodly hour honestly anything before 10 am is ungodly for me even though I go to bed fairly early most nights now. I just love the whole sedative quality for all the meds. Micha is being Micha, she's still here but at least she got her formal acceptance to Tibet university for the fall. They are sending the visa paper work over, they are cutting it kind of close but it seems to be habit for them. Because of GRE she'll have to wait a year before she can start her PHD program at Columbia, provided she makes it in to columbia. My japanese is improving though I still can't keep up with a conversation, I'm noticing when the subtitles and the words don't match about 89-90% of the time in more than just a word here and there too. So definitely an improvement. Umm Let's see oh I've been granted administrative access to the ezine i.e. more work for me. Miko is a lovely person she's got drive, determination, the project management skills, but she's not very knowledgable about some things like she wanted to put the submission deadline two weeks prior to the publication date I was like umm no because there are 10 stories going in, at least three articles other than the one I'm writing, plus the various other things she's got planned and there is no way we can edit all of that stuff, get it back to the authors for revisions get it back to us and posted with only two weeks. That little statement is what won me all the extra work though I couldn't just leave it be since I happen to be the editor so the editing should be on my schedule I mean that's what she "hired" me to do. Anyway that's about all thats going on here. OHh Irene got her old pos of a car stolen from BK while she was playing Bingo there, mostly cause she left her keys in the bathroom, she got the car back, after it had been ripped apart to make room for an oversided boombox, painted blue with spray paint then white with house paint with a 69 on the hood, it was filled up twice at the same gas station with stolen gas, they just filled 'er up and ran off, was involved in a high speed chase before ramming into a fire hydrant and being ripped through the entire bottom. Needless to say it's kind of totaled but at least she got it back. I'm so thinking it's so fitting but hten I'm mean that way
