Shrieking

posted by [personal profile] jwaneeta at 08:40pm on 28/03/2006
Holy hell, it's done. I recolored that deleted book in a week. I think I may sob, or drink or both. Why not both? Issa miracle!

GAWDALMIGHTY it's done, and the cursed thing is out of my house! I skip and I prance, and fat hot tears of joy roll down my cheeks. Plus, my Yogic-non drinking stance is in abeyance for the evening.

I'd like to thank LJ and the flist hivemind, okay, for the good vibes. I'd also like to thank Bill Murray, who made the movie Groundhog Day, the repeated replayings of which... helped me remember that Buddhist comedy is possible and dignity is to be found in the wheel of karma and... uh... that revolting reverses can somehow not only be endured but mastered, and that... I lose the thread of any sentence over fifteeen words. *happy sob*

As re other events beyond the rabbit hole of my book-deleting-redoing immersion, I cheer Ms Murchisson2's acceptance by Georgetown. EEk!(I'm still trying to buy a virtual champange bottle for her info page, but I'm tipsy and exhausted. Slow, very. How to? Links? Instructions any idiot could follow?)

Plus, in case anybody missed it, I link you Astridv, the best from-life sketch artist I've had the pleasure of knowing in my soso career.

Here's to spring.

(I love you, man spring: I mean I never say it, but I fucking LOVE YOU, spring man) (*hic*)

And you know what? It's better. It actually looks better.

But starting over, opening that first page... *shudder.* That was the steepest work slope I've ever had to face.

I'm blotting it out. *waxes amnesiacal*

Congratulations! And I need no champagne bottle, I'm tipsy with pride.

I'm buying you lunch to celebrate. Or dinner. Whatever my evil employers set me free to do.

Isn't that some serious stuff? I'll never be that good. If I hit the lottery and was able to devote six hours a day to technique for the rest of my life, I might get half that good.

Dude, are you, uh, talking about me? *boggles* Because... I said to my roommate a couple of times that I wish I was as good as you. I'm not kidding. Honestly. Weird, huh, all a matter of perspective.

Heh. We'll just have to agree to worship each other, then.

But seriously, you have a technique I'd give just about anything for. I just don't have your classical facility. It makes me pine.

Heh.

I guess we all tend to focus on those skills we're not completely happy with. Which is a good thing. Not good to be too complacent. One needs the drive.

Which is why I'll leave the internets now and get over to my desk and get cracking. *nod*

I nod back at you, because cracking is morally good. Or something. *nods*

I dunno, because I'm on day two of the only two sequential days I've taken off in the last three months, and I'm just a puddle of bliss. And it only took that long to forget the work ethic. THIS IS WHY HAPPINESS IS DANGEROUS

Did I mention we had a real actual tornado? It was a puny tornado of the best sort: it hurt nobody and simply acted thrilling. Designer Toy Tornado. Rush

Woot! *twirls you*
Dude, one week... you're a scary woman. Did you sleep at all?

Thanks for linking to my stuff. :)

Open Source Radio made a show about Groundhog Day. Here's a link, it's quite interesting. It had never occured to me before that that movie has a buddist message.

Even more interesting, their show on fanfic

I didn't sleep much, no. I did my Yoga kick and I ate occasionaly, but sleep seemed superfluous in the teeth of such overwhelming disaster. I look like absolute shit. *g*

That Groundhog Day page is terrific, thank you! I read all the links. Groundhog Day is the only thing that got me through this, I aver. I love you, Groundhog Day! I fucking LOVE YOU!

I'll read the fanfic link next. :)

Allow me to reiterate my droolz over your technique. You have the mad John Singer Sargent skills. It awes me.

You can listen to the show, too! There have links to the mp3 files on the top of each page. I love this particular show, I've listened to it a couple of times already. naominovik and cesperanza are doing a great job not just explaining the fic phenomenon, but also giving a feeling the motivation and the passion behind it. The mod is really open-minded, which is delightful. Also, Lee Goldberg. Heh. And a member of the anti-fic cabal calls in (you remember, "teh ebil fanficcers").

I have watched Groundhog Days nine times. It never gets boring. It's in my top ten movies of all time.

It was utterly my own stupid brain freeze, and I feel properly idiotic. Words cannot covey the power of my idiotic feeling. Gah.

But dude, if only I'd known about that alias stuff. Actually (having involuntarily dissected the horrific chain of events ad nauseam), there were three ghastly blunders. One, two, three. If I had failed to commit any one of them, I wouldn't have destroyed the book.

Ah, well, it's over. I hope it built my character, or something. :}
