*flails* Why does everyone automatically think Fleur is Legolas? I mean, sure, she does vuagely remind me of Theban Band’s LotR art, but she doesn’t look anything like Orlando! *flails*
Life is so hard. Fortunately, it’s also hilarious.
Mon and I finished our HPVP collab! Go see!
I have officially decided that Indistinct Backlight With Ethereal Glow is God’s Chosen CG Light Source. First StainedGlass!Hermione, then Shrieking Shack!Lupin, and now my collab with Moni for the HP Valentine’s Day Project (which you all will see soon!). Gravy, I love this lighting style. Sho pretty… and it doesn’t hurt that I’m dealing with absolutely incredible line art! Even though you haven’t seen it, go praise Moni for being a goddess.
Moni, get online ASAP. I have cookies that I can’t wait to share!
Renata just posted this link in her journal. Ah, memories! And DUDE, it’s true! After RML’s founding, there was a noted decrease in the National Debt, yet when it died off, the National Debt exploded! So if RML started up again, would Bush be doomed? *ponders setting up an RML LJ-community*
Hee! Today’s Word of the Day is “pulchritude“. Ah, memories. When I was little, whenever we played the Name Game, I was always Pulchritudinous Priscilla, because there are no other good adjectives that start with P. And because when you’re eight, people look at you in a different light when you can say “pulchritudinous.”
Oh! During my computer science class today, we got to visit a bunch of the cool CSE faculty in their native environments. I met CJ Taylor, who does a lot of awesome stuff with robotics. I could blather on about all the cool projects he has going on, but then some people would probably stop reading before they get to the important bit. His assistant? Anthony Cowley. Just one letter away… Suffice it to say, M and I discussed Good Omens over lunch. There was much mourning over Johnny Depp and gnashing of teeth over the HHGTG movie. Disney: Let’s not and say we did? Give your budget to Terry Gilliam and let’s make a movie that won’t be a travesty. It’s not too late!

Yay, my Design teacher is so cool. I explained my plight, and although we weren’t able to get back all the work I did, he gave the entire class an extension to Monday, so I’ll have plenty of time to catch up. So *hearts* for Mr. Coviello! Huzzah!
W00t! Massachusetts, I totally forgive you for landsliding John Kerry. So what do you have to say about that, Bush? Are we now going to have TWO weeks in the year dedicated to the sanctity of marriage?
::stares::
I’ve spent 8 hours last night and tonight (not to mention an uncountable number over the weekend) on an intricate Islamic-inspired design pattern for my Fundamentals of Digital Design class, and now I’m getting a message that simply says “Cannot save illustration.”
This is not happening.
Edit: AND I’m coughing up a lung AND my ungrateful wretch of a printer is being streaky so when I try to print out the illustration to prove I did it, it looks wretched. SO NOT IMPRESSED, GODS OF THWARTING ORDINARY DECENT PEOPLE. Have I suddenly become Job without anyone telling me? NOT COOL.
