First thing: what's happened to Zannah? Anyone know? Mischief.org isn't responding.
Second thing: my desk is in way too much of an exposed position. Everyone walks up behind me and startles me because I can't hear them. Third thing: I'm happy now that I participated in LMichelle's personal homepage questionnaire. She has some interesting things to say about the personal homepage as an art form and a partcice in meditation. I'm still obsessing over the Jonatha Brooke album. It says a lot to me, about different aspects of my life. there are a couple of songs I don't like (shame on us is one of them, because it's very whiny) but for the most part it's a musically and lyrically sound album. I got to talk to Melanie online for the first time in ages last night. She's planning to come visit in March or April, and this news makes me very, very happy. It also reminded me that I need to write up a little homepage for her to put on Madstop. There's a lot of things that I need to do for Madstop, actually, that I haven't gotten around to doing yet. I should probably start treating it as an actual project, and listing the things that need to be done and the time that it's going to take to them all. Eventually, we're going to start putting up the visitor tribute (everyone who stays at Madstop has to write us a story of some sort), Tales from the Bathtub, and some sort of bookshelf page or two. And, of course, i have a bunch of things I need to do with Our Present Darkness, and the Transmetropolitan site. I think the Transmet site may go hidden for a while, till I can get the people who are supposed to be writing for it to do so. (hint, hint, guys!) So much to do! So little spare time! Brad's here from Iowa City visiting, and it's kind of strange to have him around. i'm used to seeing these IC people only in the context of their social enviornment, and it's certianly a change for him to be here. The context changes everything. There are still a lot of jokes i don't get, but it's always been that way for me, with the whole memory thing going on. I found out today that I was actually featured in an article on thyroid resources on the Web way back in April of last year. Apparently I was the only personal account of hypothyroidism that they found. This pleases me, for no apparent reason, and it explains why I all of a sudden got a spate of email about that time. A fun answer to a little mystery. So, where next? What's up for the new year? Tune in tomorrow, and I'll tell you. Oh, yeah; if you're interested, the new graphics for the poetry section are pretty much complete. I need to correct some inconsistencies in placement, but for the most part it's done.
