Our precious kitty Clarissa is having some serious health problems, but we don't have enough money right now to get the blood tests she needs. We're feeding her with a syringe, but she's not even keeping all that down and we're extremely worried. She's made of sugar and purrs, and we want to see her in the best of health as soon as possible. If you ( Read more... ) -
On fantasy characters:
If you had to distill fantasy character archetypes into just a few key terms (warrior/soldier, mystic/shaman, wizard/scholar, what have you), what would they be? -
First Day of NaNoWriMo
Crawled out of bed an hour ago. Just finished eating breakfast and watching an episode of R.O.D -THE TV-. So much sneezing. No progress so far. -
Updates, Part I
So the past month has been Kasha going to New York City to visit with sixteenbynine, natmun, and datacat as well as attend New York Anime Festival/New York Comic Con, which were held at the same time and location this year.

It was good times overall, but it was also exhausting and Kasha will be crashing from the carb intake for a while. Would like to make a nice post about everything, and the ( Read more... ) -

The first couple chapters are fine; he seems to take a rather disgruntled tone, but it's difficult to find someone discussing ( Read more... ) -
Economics and noodles
Kasha has recently been interested in two topics and wishes to search libraries for books on them. The first is economics, and the problem with this is that libraries do not house textbooks, and most other books would likely not interest me. Does anyone who's studied economics at all have any books one might find at a library that they would ( Read more... ) -
No Sense of History
Every now and then, someone (usually my mother or mmsword's father) sends me one of those e-mails about how easy kids have it these days and all the things that didn't exist in their youth. These things drive me crazy, because they are always inaccurate. Just this morning, I've received the biggest whopper of them, targeted at the just-over-30 crowd. I ( Read more... ) -
Weekend Away
