community now has 680 members.
 has 72 members

and scottobear has 138 readers (That’s about 1/5 of the menstrualhut, or twice the coloringbook)… though about 10% or so are phantoms… linked to me, and then left LiveJournal for parts unknown.

for humility’s sake…

has 41884 members. (I believe that’s the most populated community on LJ)

In other news, Newton’s cuteness ratings went down, as did the number of votes… do older votes die off after a while?

sleeping late with a cat was retired, with a rating of 156.

seven colors in a rainbow.

seven chakras in the sanskrit texts.

seven varieties of barbasol shaving cream, if you count the discontinued wintergreen gel.

do I have to draw you a picture?

Man.. everyone forgets the other five symbols of the zodiac, too.

Odd how nobody’s doing any follow-ups on “no terrorist attacks happened yesterday”.

The fifth Harry Potter book is out! Well, in China, anyway.

If I were J. K. Rowling, I don’t know if I’d be enraged or incredibly amused. The writing is so…absurd…it’s hard to really be offended by the violation. It’s like some pop dada prank.

Goodbye, June. I’m glad yer gone. You’ve been a meanie month to me these last few years. Cut that nonsense out, and I’ll let you come by in another 11 months.

moonflower planted on the south side, near my front door… I think I’ll put up some strings for the vines to climb in a few weeks, and looking forward to the scent.

On the east side, the window by my bed, alyssum and catgrass.

Not sure yet what I’ll put on the north side, by the parking area. after these start to grow, I’ll plant some other nice botanicals near here, too. It was sort of weird, moving in with little areas of earth under each window, with nothing growing there, save for the odd weed. (The weeds are gone, by the way)

hmm… freshly showered, most of my chores are done, and it’s too rainy to go for a walk. time to see what sort of breakfast I can rustle up here… until later, dear journal.

eight legged freaks.

what a jim-dandy title for a giant spider monster movie.

I feel that I may go see MIB2 or the Powerpuff girls movie today. (heck, maybe a double feature, if I get my druthers)

My sweetie has to work today… maybe I can lure her over to yahoo games and play there with her for a bit. 😉

D’oh! that reminds me, I have to plant my moonflower seeds. be back in a bit, dear journal.

People weigh less on a hard surface , no, really.

Man speared in head survives

Worst Cab Ride ever!

coolest mouse ever!

watching the newlywed game on tv… I bet my sweetie and I could clean up on a show like that, and we’re not even hitched!

Well, off to read more of the widow’s son. nighters!

oh!

in two weeks, my writing (along with that of quite a few others) will officially be published in Unknown Armies v2.0., or this weekend, if you’re going to origins.

You can find my name in the credits (page three of the pdf), under Rumor-mongers, first line (fiction writers, for flavor text, not a rule maker, or playtester).

yum!

Einstein’s bagel assortment and veggie/ sun dried tomator-basil cream cheese. $10 for a dozen bagels, and 2 types of cream cheese. Bro took some as is his right, and he’s welcome.

Tut’s tomb and the pet psychic lady on unsolved mysteries… Tut’s curse seems to be explained by the englisment shaving, open wounds, and a bacterial infection. pretty neat. Pet psychic was interesting… they showed a more well-rounded view.. she *is* very attuned to her surroundings, including quite a lot about animal and human psychology / body language.

Newt sleeps atop the fridge at the moment.
