Here I go, on my yearly journey to AZ. I'm nearly ready to get out the door; just have to load my car with the last of the four zillion things I always end up taking. I hate not taking something and needing it.

It's a 'work' trip, really, as I will be at a booth for fifteen days straight. It isn't as bad as you would think. Some of the days are quite slow and I can zone out into story-land. I usually come back itching to write. Last year I came back and just went nuts with a few chapters right off the bat.

This begins the busy time of the year for me. I'll be home for a week or two, then gone for a week or two, right up until fall, most likely. I'll get to see other cities and meet new people and have strange adventures.

I will, however, miss my happy apartment so much, and I will miss you all very much. LJ has become such a part of my life. Since April I've been typing up my thoughts and babblings and it's really gotten to be a habit that I enjoy. I've met so many amazing artists and writers and photographers---this has really been a great way to spend time. I love reading everyone's entries. I read every single flist entry, honest!

So let me know if something major happens while I'm away, because, of course, I am going to miss out on a lot, and we all know that you can't skip very far back. I'll be returning on the 19th of February.

I will miss you all! Have a lovely, prosperous, healthy month, and I'll see you when I return!

*hugs*

Do you have Semagic? If not, I would suggest it. It is an intermediary program that acts as a go-between for you and LJ. It is an awesome, awesome program. You'll never lose an entry again. It makes everything easy. You can find it here (http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/semagic/Semagic1468for2k.exe?download) and it is a free download.

I checked it out, but I'm a bit intimidated. I'm not sure what I'm downloading. It looks as if I'd be connecting myself with some advertising, and I'm VERY loathe to do that. I've had extremely bad luck doing that. One shut my computer down for several weeks.

Am I mistaking something? It doesn't seem like a simple download? And what, pray tell, is a mirror, and how would I know which "mirror" to select?

And if you don't have time for fussing w/ a very nervous technoklutz, I will entirely understand.

You would be downloading the program itself, nothing more. A "mirror" site simply hosts the download as a courtesy. I usually choose the US Minnesota site to download it from, but you can pick any of them, I'm certain. I can assure you that, at least from what I've experienced, that I have never seen any advertising and that it is a completely helpful piece of programming. Also, I have mentioned this program on my LJ before, and several others on my flist use it now as well, and I've never heard any complaints. :)
