August 21st, 2002 · No Comments

Yesterday I was a Very Nice Sister and loaned my laptop to my little sister, Laura. You see, she has a computer, but it’s completely wigging out on her. My dad thinks it’s a problem with the power supply, but as the computer is a little weird (it’s kind of like an i-Mac, all in […]

August 19th, 2002 · No Comments

I’ve decided to post my very best poem here so that the people who really care can read it. It’s already at poetry.com; like anyone would ever be able to find it there. Anyway, here goes. Longing empty   and there is nothing   to hold but   a stuffed rabbit arms   and I see them   holding   each […]

I just posted section 4

August 18th, 2002 · No Comments

I just posted section 4 of Look to Your Dreams. I like the section, and each of the other individual sections, but I’m slightly dissastisfied with the fic as a whole. Section 4 skips an entire year–and more–and I hate doing that. Right now I’m brainstorming for a way to write another section 4 and […]

August 18th, 2002 · No Comments

You know, the internet has been pretty dead lately. At least the little corner of it that I inhabit. I posted part 3 of my story and have only gotten 3 comments so far, not including the chat I had with Teri on AIM. I was also lucky enough to catch Alec Dossetor (who always […]

*giggle* Okay, I went to this site looking for other things, saw this headline and just had to look. Looks like someone’s been listening to Hermione and her House-Elf Liberation Front.

Look to Your Dreams Section

August 14th, 2002 · No Comments

Look to Your Dreams Section 3– Crash and Burn is now up at the usual places. In the meantime, I have learned that Trazodone definitely does NOT agree with me. I tried it again on Monday night, and I woke up Tuesday morning exhausted and with a raging headache. Having a lot of things to […]

My laptop has started acting

August 12th, 2002 · No Comments

My laptop has started acting up. Not hugely, but enough that it’s annoying. You see, every once in a while the 8,i,k, and , keys stop working. All the other keys type, but that whole column doesn’t work. So far, I’ve been able to get them to work again after a bit, but there’s no […]

Alright, so I missed uploading

August 10th, 2002 · No Comments

Alright, so I missed uploading the new section of fic by 54 minutes. So sue me. As a teaser, here’s the first two paragraphs of Look to Your Dreams: section 2–Cherish: Ginny’s first class the next day was History of Magic, for which she was duly grateful. It meant she could think without having to […]

Okay, I guess I’d better

August 9th, 2002 · No Comments

Okay, I guess I’d better jump on the bandwagon and do the Friday Five: 1. Do you have a car? If so, what kind of car is it? I don’t personally own a car, but it is almost universally acknowledged that my parents’ 1997 white Toyota Corolla (named Lizzy) is “my” car. I say almost […]

Tired. Oh, so very tired.

Tired. Oh, so very tired. Must get caffeine. At work. No caffeine at BYU. I am in deep trouble.
