seekingautumn with me. If I could learn to not fill in the silences with my incessant chatter, she may actually have a better time with me. It's so strange, there are only a few people that I chatter at, most everyone else I'm pretty quiet around. But those I chatter at? Boy do I chatter. Anywho, so I went to the grocery and stocked our food stuffs back up, forcing me to actually cook something yesterday. It felt good to cook again though. I wish I had the discipline to cook every night. Perhaps if I had children, I would.I worked on my submissions to various icon contests, and some side photoshop work that I had been delaying. Speaking of icon contests, I actually won one! Woot! Of course it's a small contest without very many submissions, but it made me feel good none-the-less. The contest is a weekly (sometimes biweekly) at
myfandomstills. Join, make icons, have fun! I won with this one:and got Mod Choice/Best Cut with this one:
The second one is from a Quantum Leap screencap, so I lovingly call that one "quantum feet". *giggle*
I submitted my three for this week's contest last night, and I really love the treatment I did to two of them, so I'm hoping I have a good chance this week too. I can't seem to be happy with the icons that I try to do for
obsessiveicons, so I've yet to submit them. The one time I was going to submit, I forgot and the deadline passed (bummer). Oh well, I'm pretty new to this contest thing, so I'm giving myself a break.I did a little reading this weekend, starting a new book "The Secret Life of Bees". I heard good things about the book, so I'm hoping that I enjoy it. Saw a few movies, Spitfire Grill (pretty good) and The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer (which was meh, but I realized I'd seen most of it before anyway). I keep waiting for Boogeyman but Netflix says there's a "short wait". "Short wait" my ass, I've been waiting three weeks. However, I shouldn't complain too much, it's the first one that I ever had to wait on. I keep meaning to watch The Spivs too, but I've yet to get around to it. Maybe one day.
*sigh* what else......Wrote another page on my Craig fic, but haven't really had a good writing session on that one yet. I need a night when I'm not tired and don't have a huge headache where I can put on some music and pop out another ten pages. Perhaps this week, definitely not today. I'm already headachy and a wee bit dizzy. God bless anemia caused by a weeks worth of bloodloss ;).
That's about it....guess I'll go back to plugging away at the never-ending pile of work on my desk. At least the pile is less noticeable now :D.
