Small victories and a significant loss

[soc_puppet]

Am I allowed to lose hope now that Brad's gone? O wait, I said I wouldn't be talking about that, uh IGNORE THIS I guess? Have backed up my journal on LJ Book as of yesterday, and can only hope that someone is able or willing to back up CFUD. I'd be tempted to do it myself, but I think it requires money and I'm still without PayPal. And a password, which I am not one of the privileged few to know. I'll probably be starting to look into alternate journaling sites for the next few days, on the occasions that I can get on. (This reminds me, I need to go and back up all those fics I didn't write in my journal. There's several in comments that I've made, and a bunch in HoS that I haven't got anywhere else, so. I at least want to keep Echoes.) Also, since Permanent is Forever, is it possible to get any amount of money refunded on my purchase of one such account as of two years ago, or would I just be deluding myself?

MOVING RIGHT ALONG, got something in the range of 800/900 badges printed with Pat today. Having to stop and pick up more ink in the middle was... less than helpful, but we're still done with Adult and Non-Drinking badges for Pre-Reggers. We'll get to Minors and Dealers Room/Guests/Etc badges tomorrow. I only feel slightly bad about putting Lupin!Buu-chan on the Dealers' badges, and that's because Artists Alley people have to share with them, but the funny still mostly outweighs the guilt. Continuing badge printage tomorrow, which is okay since I'm making Pat watch Avatar while we work :3b Slowly I am getting her interested in it, slowly slowly, and then will come episode thirteen and she will be trapped! Trapped like the rest of us! Bwahahahahahahaha....

Lyzz, have been reading, and my cheeks hurt from laughing so much within a fortnight of surgery. Still have gaps, ow ow ow.

Anyone on my f'list planning to go to Anime Iowa that I don't know about yet? (I should probably try to contact Candy directly, since I don't know how much internet access she'll be having...)

And... I am tired now, so will shut up.

Edit: I'm still tired and now really frustrated for some reason. I don't suppose someone out there would be willing to see their way to making my world a prettier place just about now? Yeah, I thought not.

Edit 2:
Brain: You know what could help cheer you up?
Socchan: 6A suddenly deciding to give the company to someone the user base at large trusted to handle things?
Brain: No, well yes, but that's not what I was thinking of.
Socchan: So what were you thinking of?
Brain: Working on Small Things 8D
Socchan: ...Have you forgotten in the last ten minutes that we don't have any ideas for it.
Brain: Well, no. But I figured I'd just BS something and we could go from there.
Socchan: How 'bout NO? Besides, I thought we had vague plans for that fic.
Brain: Plans suck monkey balls 8D LET'S MAKE IT UP AS WE GO ALONG!
Socchan: ...Oh-kay, definitely getting more sleep tonight!
Brain: DDD:


Edit 3: There are posts relevant to my interests (locked) at daily_yuri?! o_o I'd call that pretty, I think (though 'more' is always good). Someone plz to translate mebbe?

D:! Oh noes! Don't hurt yourself! XD

Also, you're right. I totally forgot about the fics I've written in comments. I actually don't think I have any idea how to find them now. :/ I really don't want to move sites, but if a lot of others do, I probably will, once my paid account runs out. (Unfortunately, that's almost an entire year.)

[soc_puppet]

They're just sore, not dislocated ;)

I'm feeling less and less like there's hope in this situation now that I know Brad's gone. I really don't want to leave, if for no other reason than that would be over $150 essentially down the drain, but again, I'm not feeling that hopeful. I'll probably at least look into an alternate site or three.

[lyzzle.livejournal.com]

That's good, I guess. XD

If I move, it will probably be to GJ, because 2000 icons is definitely appealing. :D What do you know about the other sites out there?

[soc_puppet]

On the other hand, with every page I keep going, "Needs more pr0n plz". Tell me, does it ever get to be more than UST?

Practically nothing. I just know they exist. I figured I'd start research once Anime Iowa was over.

[lyzzle.livejournal.com]

Um. Yes. In the as-of-right-now final part but uh. It's more implied than anything. :D;;; BUT THEY SAY THEY'RE GOING TO UPDATE SOON AND MAYBE THEN THEY'LL GIVE US PR0N. D:

Sounds good. I'll do my own research, too.

[soc_puppet]

Hey, as far as I'm concerned, even a kiss would be appreciated. Though one can definitely hope for more. Moooost definitely.

Okay then :3b O look, Peter quote! *has only gotten through the first ten chapters*

[lyzzle.livejournal.com]

...Oh. You're not as far as I thought you were, then. :D; LALALA~ I'LL JUST BE OVER HERE, BEING UN-SPOILERY.

[soc_puppet]

...XDDD I can't read that fast, especially with my cheeks hurting.

[lyzzle.livejournal.com]

It's not much farther! :D

[soc_puppet]

Am now roughly half-way through twelve-ish. Thing. That one where they go see the professor about their futures. Just got past the Lily bits, I believe. Also, toast.

[lyzzle.livejournal.com]

Ah! Then you are very, very close. :3

[soc_puppet]

Most excellent, then :3b I shall continue reading upon my return home. ...Unless said reading is preempted by watching of Storm Hawks and/or Eureka. But it will happen somewhere in there.

[lyzzle.livejournal.com]

I am considering watching Storm Hawks. Tell me: is it worth it?

[soc_puppet]

Most of my miffs are minor, and technical besides (animation speeds and some very minor anatomy points that are really not much worse than any anime you could point to), so I'd say yes.

Also, it helps you keep up with Mem's current fanbabble, which I find to always be a plus :3b And it doesn't treat girls like they're dead weight/completely useless/a total liability, so ♥ for that.
