So. I did it. After almost 10 (TEN!) years, starry-sky.net is no more. I pulled the plug, so to say. I didn't want to do it this week yet but today is a free day for me (oh the benefits of living in Bavaria) and so I went and terminated the contract for both the webspace and the domain ( Read more... )

Due to the given occasion of the MAD-TV show tonight (that I can't watch because the damn satellite dish is currently oriented towards the wrong satellite thanks to my mother and her telenovela-addiction ><;;), ( I present this year's first Eurovision Song Contest posting! )

Tuesday, December 6, 8:30 p.m.: First snow of the winter 2011/2012. Oh joy.

Also, I usually don't give a damn about Russian politics but I like the fact that some people at least flipped Putin off at the ballot box. THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR DDOS-ING LJ, ASSHOLES!

Even if probably no one cares (with two possible exceptions). So if you haven't seen it yet but want to re-watch it without 'spoilers', beware, because here are a lot of them...

( Today was all about Pink Panthers, Clowns, Clones and Samurai *nod* )

OMG Carlsen licensed Mishounen Produce!!! *dansu*

Now I don't have to buy the Japanese volumes :)

Same with the Vampire Knight artbook which will be very affordable for an artbook :D. I only wish I'd understand what drove them to license the Gossip Girl manhwa...

A very long and complicated divorce court hearing has blessed me with an unexpected free afternoon :) I met with a friend and we had the first ice cream of the year and due to some reason discussed the Eurovision Song Contest. When I was home I decided that instead of working on a new Winamp skin my time would be better spent writing the first ESC ( Read more... )
