catching up

[jlh]

Okay, so I didn't mean to go so long without posting, although I will say that I've been here, reading and things, so it's not like it was some big LJ break. However, I was working a lot, and riding a wave of school-based anxiety, and things like that.

Over the last ten days I had dinner with friends like the visiting D, emsariel, ali_wildgoose (though sadly not bhanesidhe),

awww, sweetie! well, are you around next weekend at all? my during the week sucks the next two weeks unless you want to six feet under on Monday. but after the 23rd or so work will calm down a fuckload.

It sounds like the wave of anxiety has crested and crashed, and I do hope that's the case. >:D<

Also, *points at icon* this is why I should never be allowed to play with photoshop. God I do amuse myself.

You have to teach me how to do them animated thingers.

I had a long long think about words and ultimately, I decided against them. I think I'm just all about the image. I even wrote some and put them on and I was futzing with the font and I was like, you know, no.

I am, like, the laziest word-oriented person in the world. I have been thinking about this lately and I know intellectually that images have this power to communicate so much that words can't but I just can't let the images stand on their own. I have this lame need to caption, like, EVERYTHING. I'm trying to get away from that but it's such a crutch. And the worst part is that it's not like I'm a talented wordsmith - I SUCK at the captioning part.

Woe.

Try uploading the bare image and sleeping on it, and if you still want to caption it the next day, go right ahead and do it. I just feel like my words, they are lame. Also I can never decide on a font.
