SO. A MONTH LATER, I HAVE A LAPTOP AGAIN. HP customer service is really good, but I cannot say the same for their incompetent tech support division.

In celebration of my return, have a Hikago art meme. Though I think I completed it in the spirit that art was a very vague term that can encompass tooling around in paint with my roommate's tablet.

This is why I need a beta. This has been sitting on my hard drive since Hikago Day and I never posted it because I can't decide if it's actually funny or not.

I am on the laptop again. I wish I could say this is because it is hot and I feel like sitting in my room with the air conditioning on and basking in my own indolence, but that would be a complete and total lie ( Read more... )

Well, it took me long enough, but here it is. I wrote fanifc!

Despite the so-called War on Christmas, my holiday appears to be going as well as can be expected when one is coughing and sneezing and generally still sick. I cannot escape the Christmas music -- it has invaded my very thoughts. I'm quite pleased ( Read more... )
