Ok, this version is better. You can see the colouring in his robes, there’s more shadow in his face, and I added his freckles. You know, now would be a good time to tell Starling my real name…

Fellow RMLer Liz sends me this story…

“I was talking with my friend Andrea about ISAS and that i was getting to see
you and i mentioned WIAN and she was like ‘Oh my God, your FRIEND does that
website! Oh my god, I would SO LOVE TO MEET HER! Oh my GAWD, that is SOO
COOL!’ “

I feel loved! It’s stories like this that keep me from deleting my stas account in a fit of annoyance. If you’re out there reading this, Andrea, you rule!

Holy flying wads of ducttape on a hot tin roof, Batman! I just got Flash 5 and Freehand 9 today while hanging around SMU. Both products are $400 normally, but I got them together at an educational discount for only $150! And it’s the full version! And I saved $650! Boo yeah! God, I love living 5 blocks away from a college. Woo, with Freehand, version 1.0 of The Nine Muses is going to rock the spockmonkey. ::squeals in complete and utter joy::

Hey, is anyone else here from Texas? Are you going to ISAS? Leave a comment. We can make bigplans! I’m going for my photography stuff. And I’m rooming with my best friends, Chungy and Nancy! In room 42! How cool is that? YAAAAYYY!!! ::explodes::

Kell talked about irrational childhood fears yesterday. I think I’ll add to the pile.

1: When I was younger, I was always terrified that when I walked through elevator doors, they’d close on me. I would always jump through the opening as fast as humanly possible to avoid this. My sister laughed her head off at me, because she was all cool and mature in her 2 1/2 years to my senior.
2: Parrots. I was terrified of parrots. When I was about 7, I went to my friend Brittany’s house. She had a parrot named Sinbad. We were hiding from it (the parrot was evil) when I decided I would take it back to its “cage” area. I held out this stick they use to carry him, he climbed on, and I was bringing him to the cage area, when suddenly the parrot flew to the top of the stick and dug its nasty little beak into my thumb. Blood was everywhere. Luckily, I didn’t have to go to the hospital or anything. I just have a crescent-shaped scar to show for it, but I hate all parrots with a passion. After that adventure, Brittany gave Sinbad away.
3: I’ve never really been afraid of heights. I’ve been afraid of things I like (ex: notebooks, cameras, etc) falling from them! I don’t care about myself falling from them; I just don’t want to lose my stuff!

Dear Friends,

Don’t break this chain – this one’s different!

This chain letter was started in hopes of bringing relief to other tired and discouraged women.

Unlike most chain letters, this one does not cost anything. Just send a copy of this letter to five of your friends who are equally tired and discontented.

Then bundle up your husband or boyfriend and send him to the woman whose name appears at the top of the following list, and add your name to the bottom of the list.

When your turn comes, you will receive 15,625 men. One of them is bound to be better than the one you already have.

At the writing of this letter, a friend of mine had already received 184 men, of whom 4 were maybe worth keeping. REMEMBER this chain letter brings luck.

One woman’s cat died, and the next day she received a hunk.

An unmarried woman living with her widowed mother was able to choose between an actor and an Olympic swimmer.

You can be lucky, too, but DO NOT BREAK THE CHAIN! One woman broke the chain and got her own husband back again!

Let’s keep it going, ladies! Just add your name to the list below!

1. Hillary Clinton
Chappaqua, NY
