it won't be long now

Set up fandomfrom3 as a mirror of the LJ account of the same name, so, uh, yeah. That's there now.

...I think I fail at DreamWidth so far.

This is like one of those buddy-cop movies where you're the hard-nosed cop and I'm the guy who hates buddy-cop movies!

I LOVE YOU, [name withheld for casting spoiler].

WORDS CANNOT PROPERLY EXPRESS MY LOVE FOR YOU.

<3 <3 <3

...THAT'S ALL.

So, um. Yes. I have a DW account now.

I don't know what I'll do with it, or if I'll use it, but, uh, it's definitely here.

Weirdly, I have difficulty remembering that Charlie is younger than Aaron. There's no reason for this. Aaron's been around as a character longer, we've seen him being older than Charlie, we've seen them both being born, they drop ages often enough. There's no reason for this mental confusion, but I do have to keep stopping and reminding myself that, oh yes, Aaron's older than Charlie. IDK.

Less than awesomely, when I booted up Sally this morning, she refused to recognize that the TARDIS was there. Well, no, actually, she recognized it -- My Computer listed "G:" in its list of drives, which is the TARDIS -- but she refused to access it or acknowledge that there was anything on that drive.

Upon rebooting Sally, she refused to recognize anything on my USB hub, which is to say the TARDIS, Barbara, Toshiko, or the mouse. Ahaha, not good.

After panicking more than a bit, shutting down, unplugging everything, replugging everything, threatening to call WD for troubleshooting, and rebooting, she finally condescended to admit that they were all there and now I can access them fine. But still. NOT COOL, SALLY. (But I still love you.)


...I haven't been able to sleep properly for several days, so forgive me if I overreact a bit.

The Massive iTunes Transfer is done and working fine. Playcounts intact. Woohoo! Now I just need to get around to updating (and probably overhauling) my trades list. (Has anyone on my flist ever used Weebly? Is it any good? Are there any other good free alternatives to freewebs? I'm considering moving because I'd like to have a little more flexibility with my site.)

In the meantime I'm trapped in TV Tropes which is never a good thing. (The fictional geek-rock band that forms an important corner of one of my original 'verses has just been renamed from "Xanatos Roulette" to "A Good Name For A Rock Band". This is not my fault!)

Doing laundry, which is boring.

Yesterday was International Pixel-Stained Technopeasant Day, which I somehow managed to miss, so, uh, a belated happy IPSTPD to you all!

1. Reply to this post with 'Icons!', and I will pick five of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will - allegedly - create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.


Keywords: cookies!
by nikiness
Once upon a time there was a metaquotes post that involved the phrase "We're having hot lesbian sex. And by lesbian sex we mean tea. But it's still hot." This amused a great many people and inspired a great many icons. Teh Niki and I were discussing it, and we were both amused by the phrase, and one or the other of us said, "It's totally about us! Except neither of us drinks tea!" So at some point in this conversation I suggested the substitution of cookies, and she made the icon, and lo, you have our relationship in a nutshell.
Also, the cookies are chocolate chip, if there was any doubt.

Keywords: The X-Files - chicafrom3
by fandomfrom3; don't take, plz!
There's another story behind this one, and again it's weirdly convoluted. My first solid introduction to online fandom was the official X-Files message board, way back in the day when I was very young. I needed a screenname, thought about it for a while, and finally impulsively decided to name myself after Kristen Kilar, the vampire wannabe Mulder hooks up with in the second-season episode "3". Rather than actually try to register a variant of "KristenKilar" or the like, I called myself chicafrom3. The name stuck, and still does, as you've noticed. This icon's really nothing more or less than a nod to the origins of my screenname -- Mulder and his vampire love interest.
