    Slightly adapted from the official artwork, where we see entirely too much of Elika for my taste. Love the character to death of course, you can never have enough strong female leads. But, really, hello biceps. P.S. I realize I’ve been neglecting this blog. There’s been PoP, the new puter, the family gatherings, and the… read more »

    Or as official as I could make ’em in a reasonable amount of time. Thank you photoshop for this neverending supply of fun. Meep.

    I can’t think of any particular reason why I’m feeling so bloody low today… It’s Friday, there are only a few weeks left before the winter holidays, the new back door is installed, it’s snowing… The list of cool things seems pretty long, really. Maybe I’m just tired. Also, it’s damned difficult to be witty… read more »

  • Update on my osx86 experiments

    | Technology | no comments

    So I ended up scrapping the whole project in favor of buying the real thing. Doesn’t mean I didn’t learn anything. First important lesson: IDE drives are absurdly poorly supported. Install went smooth as anything on the desktop system, with SSE2-enabled chipset and SATA DVD and hard drives. On the laptop, no such luck. Older… read more »

    The laptop died. The boy wants XP back on the desktop upstairs. This is my easy, lazy, extremely pleasing solution. It’s miiine! MINE I tells you! Mweehehe.

    Marh! I have OSx86 running natively on my old box of a PC, with leopard 10.5.5 chugging along nicely. Despite a few ATI glitches, it’s actually faster than my old XP install (which the boy bricked last night with some virus). … This is even more satisfying than my first successful ubuntu boot. Meep.

  • Changes, mucho

    New sketched section, new written section. Not much in either. Hopefully the written section will fluff itself up with time. I haven’t got much hope for the doodlin’, but I can still try, dangit.

    I’ve decided to scrap the root of wordinprogress.com, since the task of dealing with two different admin tools (joomla and wordpress) is actually keeping me from updating the main page, which is lying dormant on my poor lonely root. I’ll simply add the writings and sketch pages in here instead. I’ll work on this this… read more »

    … by Doum’s (sorry, I just can’t leave out that ‘u’ there..) idea of a book club, I’ve decided to give this a spin. However, the series of novels I’m currently devouring, I already know by heart and have read several times. I don’t know, but I think the idea of a book club is… read more »

    Heading on over to the colisee later tonight to see the Quebec 400th cirque du soleil show. Hopefully I’ll manage to get out of work a little early to get there on time. I’d like to see the big boss try and stop me.

    Something wrong with the project structure at work. No nitpicking here. With Doum gone and everything else shot to hell, we can’t afford production delays and mistakes simply on account of having several people not quite at ease and happy with their roles. There ain’t no such thing as the perfect job. There are a… read more »

    Definite lack of energy being the main problem here. I haven’t even opened any of my files at home. I have one fanfic sitting unfinished and unpolished on my hard drive and one entire novel swirling around in my head. That one’s been there for months. I’m starting to feel like it’s moved in on… read more »
