++Wheeeee!!++

*waves wearily* Hey, all. I'm very happy to announce that my site is back up and running - all pages working, all info and links updated, all images uploaded.

*pants, wheezes, and dies*

Now. I will go to bed. Becase I have a choir rehearsal in the morning, another one sunday, and three more this upcoming week alone - and THREE performances.

It's fun being the conductor - and.... there's no "but" follow-up to that statement. Muaha.

Woo, what a day. LONG day. Loooong...

In order:

1. Universal Studios
2. Triple X the movie (considerably more interesting than the above)
3. Santa Monica Pier
4. Third Street Promenade (at which the musicians were making war. To our left was a 14-year-old Jazz trumpeteer - and to our right was a three-member Hispanic boi-band on guitar. It was cacophanic fun.)

At any rate, she's going home tomorrow - wah - and thusly, we are home and she is packing. And woooo... do I ever need to sleep. ^_^

BTW - site's back up. *cheers* I'm working on uploading files. Tomorrow I'll have access to DSL, so it'll go pretty quickly then.

Huzaah for phone lines. :p

HA! It IS a server error. ^_^ The bandwidth thing, that is. Bah - this sucks. I'm moving back to Worldzone.

It'll probably take a day or two for the DNS to update for everybody - my apologies for that!

Blah. :P

Oh, and in other news, did the music seminar again today. It went GREAT!! I'm really surprised at myself - this is gonna sound weird, but...

It seems I'm turning into a *looks around* *whispers* teacher.

It's not on purpose, I swear - it's just sort of...HAPPENING. But I'm finding that I'm apparently good at it - and I LOVE it - and...

Well. This does affect what I plan to do for grad school, lemme tell ya. But ALSO lemme tell ya -

I was called a Shockey-child today by her, who KNEW Dr. Shockey (my favorite choir teacher in college). That utterly ROCKS. Nothing like having someone pinpoint aspects of your favorite teacher in your own teaching style. ^___^

Not to mention how WONDERFUL the "Ooh, I GET it!" look is on the faces of the people you're teaching.

Ack. I'm doomed. -_-;;

Oh, and BTW - somehow, I've supposedly gone OVER five gigs of transfer this month.

Ummmmm that's not possible (I'm REALLY not that popular :P), just so you know - to be honest, it means someone's leeching from my site.

Grah. Images will return shortly. >_<

Holy crap - we just did Disneyland. For TEN SOLID HOURS.

I DO mean solid. No break. No time out. We just went and went and went and got out of there at ten minutes to midnight and just made it home (and yes I'm online, but I can quit any time I WANT, damnit) and my feet feel like they were stabbed through with spears and Tigger's back has definitely seen better days but we had the time of our LIVES and we'd go back if we could.

^_^

*pant pant pant*

Going away now.

Wooo... Tigger is at my house! She's getting used to the concept of being in CA. And getting used to my family - which, in spite of its problems, adopts everyone. ^_^ It's much-love, ne? ~_^

Aaaaaaaand I'm going to go write now. Sorry for the teeny update... ^_^

Whee! Funny how doing a new blog layout that I actually LIKE can make me feel better. ~_^ It's been one hell of a week, folks...

Okay. Beginning the Social Blogging now. ^_^ I'm gonna respond to just about EVERYBODY - so... erk. Forgive the huge entry. ^_^;;;


Heee - thanks. ^_^ Glad you like it - makes me pleased. ^^ And what's wrong with Yoda? ~_^


Welcome back from vacation, K! ^_^ And... *hugs* for your mom. Man... will definitely keep you BOTH in prayer. And you know what you should tell her? There was this lady once - a wonderful lady, friend of my family. Christian, strong, just amazing - and she was married to the most awful person you've ever seen in your life.

Well, my dad asked her once how she did it - this was after the two of them had had to swing her drunken husband OFF the floor and onto the sofa - and do you know what she said?

"I used to sit home and cry while he was out having affairs and wasting our money. But then one day, I realized - while I was sitting home crying, he was out PARTYING.

"I decided I wasn't going to give him that victory anymore. He could go out and do whatever he wanted - I, myself, was going to serve the Lord and not let his problems bother me."

And you know what? She did. It really worked. *hugs* It's something to think about.


Woo, Juuuuulie... - didja notice that she likes your blog layout? *cackles* JETTO-SAMAAAAA! ~_^


Woo... good Joni Mitchell quote, Manzai - although the spacefem stick figures were... a little odd. o_O I dunno. I'm probably just in a weird mood. ^_^


Okay, Tigger - I KNOW you're alive. *poke* *poke poke*


You're a WHAT? *blinks* Okay - I've known you for a long time, and albeit I haven't known you as well as I would like, I can tell you that you are most definitely NOT a bitch from hell. What the freak... o____O


Meep, Gwen - you are SO right about the storm thing. That hurricane still freaks me out a little. Ooh, and - clothing... for what? and WoF? Woo?


Whoah, Icegaze - that's... quite the dream. o_O Dang, I wish I could hear more....


Woo, I'm SO glad your site is almost ready, Kunika! ^_^ Been waiting for a while, I have - and I'm sorry about your body's stubbornness. >_< You know, perhaps you should try one of those protein things... you never know. Sometimes a higher protein diet can fix or at least alleviate things like that - plus, your body can't turn it into fat. ~_^ Convenient.


*pokes Leash and Chaos* *poke, sayeth I* *pokepoke*


Aaaaack... I know how you feel, Leareth. >_< And I'm sorry you didn't see the camera - tell me, in Australia, does the thing disappear from your record after a couple of years? Or does it just... stay there forever? >_O


Man, Taryn - gah. >_< You can... ah... retake your SAT? Or... meep.


You know, I KNOW for a fact you've never been this happy for this long as long as I've known you. I just really hope this turns out to be a REALLY good thing for you...*hugs* And I'm STILL praying for you. So there. :p


Erk - gads, I HATE needles, Pisces! HATE THEM HATE THEM HATE THEM - which I know goes back to (a) when I was hypoglycemic, and (b) was on some anti-depressants (yes, for those who know me, during THAT year >_<). I had to have blood tests ALL the freaking time... gods. Needles are of SATAN.


Oooh, Vega, I have LOVED catching you online the few times I have this last week. Hopefully that will increase. ^_^ And you're right - SoF is a great comic - so states Isa as well as you, and... erk. I haven't had time to read all of it yet... ;_;


*laughs* Becky, WHO in the world is on your blog? For one moment I thought it was a very strange Seishirou-san....


Got the new URL, Gio - and may I just say that you are SO right about the intellectual level thing? I was engaged once - which some of you know - and the guy was and is a real sweetheart; but... that mental level thing just... wasn't there. I had to "explain shit" all the time.

Nope. That just doesn't work.


*dies laughing* Lilack, I LOVE that opening explanation. I've been tempted to do things like that, but you SO did it perfectly. Absolutely perfectly. *is still trying to figure out just why in hell people got to her blog by searching for "naked kunika"* o___O


Woo, Good luck on the job interview, Liz! ^_^ And I made it into your list of referrers - YAY! *dances because that's just neat*

And btw - LOVE the JH layout. Wah. ;_;


Mou, Nekochan... well, I'm glad to see you ARE alive, at any rate. ^_^ Bwah.


Oh, feh. You were at AX and I missed you? Bah. >_< Perhaps next year... *le sigh*


Yes, you're evil. And yes, I'm working on the Danger of Dreams. And your teacher did WHAT? *dies* *just dies* And you've signed up for keenspace? YIPPEE!! LET me KNOW - I'll SO read everything! ^__^


*poke poke* Haven't heard from you in a while, Stephie - so busy and no desire to blog, eh? ^_^ Well, rest assured that some of us DO read it. Even if we have to go here to pull it off. ~_^


Wow, Whitecat - last but definitely not least. That's an INCREDIBLE batch of thought proceses - and you're very right. But you know what else? It's neat stuff after college, too. Very neat. And busy as all HELL - but you know, if you can get to do something that you LIKE... then you've got it made. Even when it's taking up more time than you can possibly give, you still can't really imagine doing anything else. It's something like a minor miracle. ^_^


And dear heavens - that's EVERYBODY! Woo! Everyone on my list. *cackles* Well, really, now I feel like I accomplished something.

Yes, I'm THAT silly. Deal. :p

SPOILER WARNING

This would be Kakyou, from X1999. Now, in order of importance:

  • Yes, he's a boy.
  • Yes, he looks like he's a dreamy kinda guy, but that's because he IS. He's a dream-seer, and literally sees the future in his dreams. Whoopee.
  • CLAMP has not killed him off yet, although they promised to.
  • Technically, he was in Tokyo Babylon because he was Hokuto's boyfriend - but I personally still think that's just weird. I mean, really - he's SO not her type.
  • He's pretty.
  • It's CLAMP. What more do you want?
