Happy birthday...

...to a spectacular artist!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ac1d6urn!!!

You're so incredibly talented, generous, and sweet! I'm very glad to have met you. I hope you have a great day!

Miscellaneous.

Just got back from the post office. I swear, I am the worst when it comes to estimating international shipping. The package to England was more than expected, and I had to dash out to the car to get change, which I haven't had to do in ages. hee!

I'm 90% happy with my eBay work so far.

The 10% I don't care for? "Where is my package?!" Y'know, there are such things as holidays and weekends which sometimes delay shipping by a day, two, or three. "The shipping is too high!" Er, I charged you $5, and it cost $4.15 to be sent Priority Mail in a nice little box. And that's exactly what was advertised. Don't blame me because you didn't read the shipping notes. Wah. Most people are decidedly sane, and most transactions are quick and to the point, which I love. But the few that are pains...argh!

I absolutely cannot believe that Monday is Hallowe'en.

I didn't participate in mctabby's Friending Spectacular.

Last year I did, and...no new friends from it.

This year, I took one look at my flist and thought, holy cow, I'm at 143 friends, and 134 friends-of. So I don't really want to increase my flist by much, honest, and I would feel awful if I had put something up and then not friended people back. So I'm staying put at this level for a little while, at least. Or at least I say this, and then find one more person to add. Yes, I am nearly entirely mad. Hence the Lone Sane Thought.

But I do feel this strange desire to write an introduction post. ha!

Completely stolen...

shamelessly, from violet_quill.

Reading the stuff and trying to decide

Okay, now I'm reading ahead a little in the story, and I'm starting to wonder if I should do it the long way.

See, I wrote about the stuff that happens in Fourth World, right? And Sixth World is where the cats are, and oh yes, it is crack!tastic. Seriously.

Fifth World, however, is a downer. Y'all know my obsession with melodrama, especially if you've read anything I've written. Well, think of today's melodrama, multiplied by four. It would be a lot of typing, and no humor, really, except what I can try to inject into it with comments, because it's pretty much pure fantasy and angst.

Anybody want to read the Fifth World stuff, or should I go right into Sixth World? Lemme know.

Awful story that will eventually include floating cats: Fifth World

Second entry (art)
Third entry (fic) (Fourth World)
Fourth entry (fic) (Fifth World)
Fifth entry (fic) (Sixth World part one)
Sixth entry (fic) (Sixth World part two)
Seventh entry (fic) (Sixth World part three)

This world is pretty angsty. No floating cats.

Hey, iibnf drew me floating cat fanart! squee!
