Finally…the Muses are slowly returning!

 

November 21

Well, I have finally gotten past the block on creating in PSP. So far today I have done about four new graphics and they are all fairly good. None of them are as dark as some of my past ones, but that is probably a reflection of my current mood.

The start of the holiday season 2009

Happy Holidays

Thursday, November 19

Well, it’s been a long time. Finally got my net situation at home pretty well straightened up, and maybe getting my muse back a bit. Hope to post more often, but no promises!

I was just sitting here thinking that we are exactly one week from Thanksgiving and then it will be Black Friday and the official start of the holiday shopping season. Read the rest of this entry »

I have just finished reading the five books of the Meredith Gentry books by Laurell K. Hamilton. As I have mentioned before, I have also read all of the currently available Anita Blake books by the same author. Both series have their merits, but—even as much as I love vampire stories—I do believe the Gentry series is the better of the two to date.

Last night at about 6:30 p.m., my uncle finally took his last breath. He’d been diagnosed with end stage cancer of the lungs, liver, and lymph about two months ago.

After that, it went down hill pretty fast. Read the rest of this entry »

Gamer – The Movie

Sunday October 11

I had the pleasure of watching the movie Gamer last night. I went in expecting a movie about gaming, which it was to a small extent. However, the game was not the main focus of this movie.

We have all heard the Legend of Sleepy Hollow, I am sure. I have had the pleasure of watching the movie based upon the story. I grabbed it in my search to watch more of Tim Burton’s movies and I am glad I did.

Saturday, October 10

I spent a good bit of Friday afternoon and well into the night reading. I remembered once I’d finished the book why I usually try to space a book out over two days! My eyes were a bit tired, but the book was an excellent read.

Here is a sweet and poignant story of a dog found lost on the side of a highway. This lost dog was different from most strays and one shelter worker found out her story. (via Alyssa Milano on Twitter).

MissU

As I sit here in the student lounge, I have a certain someone on my mind. We’ve been able to talk more often, but that is going to end pretty shortly.
