When I read the script, I was like, Hello, woman in a box. I had to explore that to the end. SFenn

Whooeee!!  I'm buried under papers.  Or would be if they weren't all digital.  Instead I'm frantically tipp-typing away and trying to make sure there's plenty of coherency.  Finished the rough draft of the Asian Horror paper on Tuesday, turned it into the prof for comments, picked them up yesterday afternoon, and glory of all glories - IT'S NOT CRAP!  I still have some significant revisions to do, but ... she likes it!  She really likes it! 

Biggest load off of my mind in forever.  Now I'm writing the Globalization paper, basically trying to discuss how Japanese cyberpunk is essentially a global enterprise so as to prove my two pronged point that Akira and Tetsuo fucking matter.  It's going well. 

Then there's a translation that I've got due tomorrow, but I just asked for an extension so everything doesn't come down at once.  And got it!  Monday translation, here I come!

Now for the cool stuff:
- OMG!!  Chapter 1 of Jamie Craig's Forsaken is up!!  If you like m/m erotica, please go check it out, since I did the "book cover" for it and I'm exceedingly proud to be associated with these two writers and the awesomeness that is their story!
- all because of khaoschilde I decided to actually use my Deviant Art Account to upload some... well... stuff.  Old manips and wallpapers, and some pictures that, for whatever reason, I haven't uploaded to the lj.  Yes, I am a feedback whore.  Do they have 12 step for that?
- Neil's parents are arriving tonight for a 4 day stay tonight at 10 pm, and I actually have *help* cleaning the house because D. understands that, while I may seem psycho about cleaning, it's how I deal (and she actually has patience with it).  And Neil is chipping in!

And finally, from entrenous88 's choices, the ICON MEME!  This time with my horribly bad attempts at haiku.  Look, laugh, mock.  And if you reply to this post I *WILL* pick your icons, even though my response may be slow.

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick four/five of your userpics.
2. Make a post and talk about the icons I chose.  (OR write a fanku or drabble about each of the icons - inspired by icon mood, what it represents to you, or whatever)
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee. (YAY)

( and so, the pics were )

Guess I'd better post this to my journal too!
