Happy post time
I think it's about time for a happy post, don't you?
* Epic news: THEY'RE MAKING A NEW MONKEY ISLAND SERIES! And also re-releasing the first game with vocal options and stuff and eeeeeeee ♥♥♥♥♥ Must make room on the computer, save up money...
* I find I am quite fond of my "generic" text-and-color icons on DW. They're pretty and practical, even if they're not entirely perfect. I'm slowly continuing to think of new ones I want to add, so it's just as well I've got a paid account now.
* SPEAKING OF DREAMWIDTH. I just got three new invite codes last night! I'm guessing it had something to do with me using up my previous two, but whatever. The point is! Anyone out there want one? They do me no good sitting in my inbox like this. Edit: Down to two, but still willing and happy to share :3b
* We've got an author visiting and doing talks about writing and stuff :D Anyone out there familiar with Jack Gantos? Among other things, he's written the Rotten Ralph and Joey Pigza series. He's quite entertaining, and at the workshop I went to tonight (aimed at adults, about how to turn a journal into a book) he had some very interesting processes that I only wish I'd thought of any of the times I tried to start a diary IRL when I was wee. Anyhow, we now have a rubber chicken signed by him :D (To compound his awesome, he tends to sign very elaborately, with drawings; he told stories about decapitating chickens during his talk, so he drew a chopped-off chicken head on the rubber chicken ♥ I may have to go back for more talks tomorrow.)
* I'd re-post the whole thing, but I'm not entirely sure about how I'd feel being the vector of a meme on DW. So I'll just say:
Y'all make my world a better place.
