Journal in use! Feb. 14th, 2008 @ 09:24 pm
Hey yeah uh....so when I say I'll be using my journal more, I really should.

So I've decided that yes, I will use it more often!

With what, praytell? My daily ramblings?

Eh here and there I guess. I dont' usually talk about my life's problems anymore it seems, I prefer helping folks with theirs instead. Take the weight off my friend's shoulders a bit and help them in the process and all that.

No, since I can't post Second Life images to my FA account much, and most of my artistic work is currently WITHIN second life, I'm going to use my LJ more for displaying my work than ranting about real life happenings.

I will also start using Tags in my journals, so you can filter out (as I'm told) my SL junk!

I will put my work images for everyone's benefit =)

Graaaaaaaah.

Aiptek, I like ya cause you make decent, affordable tablets. No bells and whistles on em, but I've been using the 12000u for years and its a VERY good model.

But why does your latest driver support suck? Seriously?

I had to traverse to the european site just to find the latest drivers that WORK with PS CS3. And with those drivers, you remove a few crucial elements!

Like definition of work area! I can't set 'half' my desktop area to be my work area anymore...and thats a bit crucial when you consider the fact that I HAVE DUAL MONITORS. Not just dual monitors, dual 22" widescreen monitors. thats a LOT of desktop space. And even stretched over a 12" wide work area, that means my drawings area is skewed well out of proportion

I also know of the .ini hack you can do to define the work area. Requires a reboot and doens't stick, but you reworked your ini file also to remove that ability.

*Comes up and pokes his journal with a stick*
....
*Poke it again*
...huh...
*Pokes a final time, before getting a baseball bat and smacking it a few times*
Oh, there we go! I guess it truely never does die!

Anyways!

Hello hello! I am back (*psst* This feels like deja vu.... [shhhh!]). At least around LJ that is. So...what have I been up to since last I talked to you, oh journal of mine?


  • My relationship has deepened (somehow) with my mate Erdenshire. We've made some life changes and become even closer because of them. Six years, seven months, eighteen days. Wooo!

  • I dropped in and out of the obscurity of House Rules on a constant basis.

  • I got myself a Fur Affinity account.(contains both regular and mature artwork)

  • I've started inking and coloring sketches done by other folks. Can see some on my FA.

  • This household now has all three of the 'next gen' consoles. The PS3 is on the most, but played the least, running mostly Folding@Home. The 360 is played the most, usually CoD4, Mass Effect, or Assassin's Creed. The Wii is in the middle, but I love it the most I think.

  • I got two 22" widescreen monitors for christmas. They are amazing...I just wish my art tablet worked better with dual monitors.




Theres probably a ton more, just can't think of them off the top of my head.

I'll try to update this more with daily thoughts, ramblings, etc.

If ya wanna talk with me, my AIM (caiganmythfang) is on 24/7. And if I'm at my computer, I'm more likely than not on SL as Caigan Dusk.

Back from Kumoricon and whew, that was fun! I'm very achy and very tired, but amazingly I do NOT have con crud! I was sick before the con, but got better just in time, and I was worried I'd come out worse since my body's ability to fight off sickness was weakened, and that tons of people = tons of people with cats, and I have a severe cat allergy.

Kumoricon was only my second convention, but my first convention being staff and attending more than a single day. Being staff is an experience in and of itself, and unless you've seen the behind-the-scenes, you might not realize just how much work staff puts into the convention, all of it volunteer work.

I'll post more about it later, I'm tired and relaxing to some anime and food.

» Hey guys!
Hey, if anyone is attending Kumoricon this weekend, I'll be attending all three days (I'm on staff), drop me an email at caiganmythfang (at gmail.com (remove the spaces and whatnot, you know how it works!)

Otherwise, everyone have a good weekend

(really should post more often....)
» Return!
Yeah, woo, this is still here, and I'm still around. May or may not start posting regularly here again.

Stuff going on?

Part of the Kumoricon anime convention staff now, as a graphics/layout designer. I get to work on getting the pocket guide ready (organization and layout of all the data), while its difficult, its also extremely fun.

I also started writing again too. Posted up some of my really old stories (two of my favorite ones at least, one that got published and one other) to my FA account, and got some positive comments on them. I decided to dust of my writing fingers completely now and dive back in full tilt.

It's funny when I look back at my old stories, and can tell exactly what writers I were infatuated with at the time for most of them. I'm hoping with my new stories to show more of my own style that you see bits of in Ships Log.

As always, House Rules is still going strong. New domain (thanks Felix!), new color artists here and there, new website code (thanks CodeCat!), and a bunch of other little things.

But for now..away I go!
» Power outtages are fun!
This was an eventful night. So Thursday night we were out of power, right? All night, and into the morning. Power came back on,w as fine until tonight, when apparently a substation caught on fire and all power was shut down for a few hours.

The events in this apartment, though, were hilarious.

We're watching a recorded Doctor Who from Friday night. We are close to the end, when ;

Old Lady : "Thank you! Thank you so much! I don't know who you are, but..." *BBBzzzzzmmmm......*

About 10 seconds later the power came back on.

We laughed, turned off some computer systems, and decided to finish the episode. We get to the end, when.... :

Doctor : "Something's coming...A storm is coming..." *BBZZZZmmmmmmmmmmmmm....*

PERFECT TIMING! At this point, we are laughing at both somewhat creepily coincidental situations.

About 15 minutes later, we decide "Lets see if it's just local. Lets call Gamestop (about 10 minutes away), to see if they have power, since we have a game reserved we need to pick up anyways. (Metal Slug Anthology)

*Ring*
Jeremy : "Hi, this is GameStop (usual corp spiel). This is Jeremy, how can I help you?"
Me : "Hey guys (we're well known at our gamestop), do you still have power? We just lost it a few minutes ago."
Jeremy : "Whaa? Uh, yeah, we have power here..." *BZZZT click silence...*
Me : "No way...hello?"
*redial*
Jeremy : "Hello, Gamestop, (Corp spiel). This is Jeremy, how can I help you?"
Me : "Haha, I was the one who just called, you guys just lost power, huh?"
Jeremy : "Oh man, that was such perfect timing dude, we JUST lost power. We're laughing our asses off here."
Me : "Damn, thats creepy timing, but hilarious. Well we WERE gonna stop by and pick up some reserved games, but..."
Jeremy : "Yeah, no power, sorry man."
Me : "Haha, no problem, stay safe guys."
