maybe it's the fact that i just watched the sarah connor chronicles, or maybe it's because jean luc picard owns my soul but that last sentence there brought me right into emotional upheaval and i proudly wiped away a tear.

We want Wikipedia to be around at least a hundred years from now, if it does not turn into something even more significant. Everything about Wikipedia is engineered towards that end: our content licensing, our organization and governance, our international focus, our fundraising strategy, our use of open source software, and our never-ending effort to achieve our vision. We want you to imagine a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. (ten things about wikipedia)

i love you, wikipedia, and i owe you so much. (there must be something like a heart-shaped smiley thingy sign. i don't know of these things; i better wiki it right now!)

today is the day i met Jim. we're gonna have a jolly good time together!

i can truly say that i knew him inside out right from the beginning: i was there when he was built.

and tomorrow i'll go and get him. my new computer!

Jim and I. it's going to be FANTASTIC!

(22 hours to go!)

i've gone paid!!! yay.

sadly, that's all the good news i've got today...

with this step came the desire for a new layout to show off my new paid-account-edness. and that's why i put it off for so long; i *knew* it would end with me crying into my coffee.

with the styles that are based on expressive you get nice headers, an elegant, simple layout, the tags in a cloud, and so on. but you can't customize the colours and font. :( and that applies to most stylesheets. with smooth sailing you can do all sorts of wicked things, but i feel the basic layout is a bit cluttered...

and all that hassle is even without wanting to add my own header! umph.

so i just (almost) randomly picked this one. the fact that it's got a skull helped though.



oh but hey. i still get to upload 90 more userpics! :D

new old layout!

it's basically still the same, just changed some tiny things that irked me.

when you advertise a 'Metal Light Bulb Ring' (no kidding!), dear jeweller, in a fancy bag with fake bling all over too, you surely mean a ...special gift for the man of one's choice to put over his bulging ....er, you know what. so why not avoid all the (or at least some of it) embarrassment and put it plainly as "Bling for your Thing"?

seriously, the light bulb thing would just put me off.

otherwise, go chrismas present!
(just make sure the kids aren't around and cry for you to try it out...)

now i know how those antihistamines *really* work; they don't actually do anthing against whats wrong, you just can't be bothered to scratch and your immune system gives a metaphorical shrug with equally metaphorucal shoulders saying, 'well, if you don't wanna play....' and stops making it itch.

(antihistamines are very effective against spellcheck, too :) )

will someone ever write jellyfish/human?

'he embraced me gently with every single one of his tentacles, reaching places i cannot speak of, and the passion was so great that it killed me.'

ohno, missed the 'hug a vegetarian' day yesterday!

i can see a big bear giving me a warm, all-embracing bear-hug...
bear: "i won't eat you, i hug you."
me: "thank you, bear, i won't eat you either" ::hugs and smiles like dissolving in heaven::

then again, are we so tired of defending ourselves against pitying/ irritated/ well-meaning dead-animal-eaters that we need a hug?

dear driver of the 'Lube Mobile' i saw driving by today,

thank you so much for letting me know. i myself don't need you, coz one of the in-built features of my 'love tunnel' is lube. but would i be a fanfic writer and the boys would be in dire need of lube, i know who'd they call, the Lube Mobile!

- "hey..yeah, we need lube, like, right now. we don't have any. but, you know, we really want some."
- ::honk, honk:: "which colour would you like? flavour? some ice-cream as well? to lick off of your pretty friend here? he looks like he's got beautiful skin, made to lick off ice cream of it.. ::wink,wink::
- "er."
- "we really just wanna fuck. you know. like animals, just with lube."

i want to dedicate this one (ooh! i said it, i said it!) to a friend; one of these rare ones...

he called my attention to a little mystery i had totally overlooked: The Ampelmännchen. a whole society works (and possibly lives) in this city, without them the whole city would discent into utter chaos. but no one knows anything about them except their prefered colours. where do they live, what are their social structures, and where do they hide their children? no one knows.

the best approach to solve this mystery seems to immerse oneself in the world of the little ampelmen. the first step would be to immitate its pose and follow the leads from there on. but since our only expert and best man left town we can only try and make contact through art...

hello, ampelmännchen! where do you sleep tonight??
