estuarymagicks replied to your post: Does anyone want to play Myst Online: URU with me
Myst is an online thing?? NEED.
YES
An entirely free, online operation that is also open source
no cash shop or anything
completely run on donations.
(It’s also 3D fully explorable and while some people may think that takes away from the Myst experience I love it)
And I’m surprised the servers...

TOMORROW
Hey, people of Portland! And people near Portland!
Tomorrow is Last Thursday on Alberta St, and for the first time (eek) I will be joining the glorious and colorful ranks of the artsy vendor folk. If you (yes you) come by, just tell me that you have followed me on Tumblr or Facebook and I would be pleased to give you a discount.
Teaser photos will be going up today as I edit them, but just in...

Map-making day~
I have spent all day — with the exception of some light cooking and gardening — agonizing over what was supposed to be a straightforward map of Sifara, for Cerin’s Howl.
First I was just going to mark and name the provinces, and figure out where major goods were coming from, so I could calculate shortages caused by the war. And then I thought, I have to figure out the climate...

Appropriate smoldering heat: check.

Insomnia cures: browsing the Buffy tag and reliving all my fangirlhood.
I have a serious Whedon weakness, because he makes me believe him, and because it hurts. And I am okay with that. I mean, the man is just a stunning storyteller. I envy that.
Speaking of storytelling, my computers are trying to conspire against progress on my novel.
Sigh.
But NOW! Sleep time.

Adventures etc
I dyed my hair (tinted, actually -__-) with blackberries last night. There were SO MANY ways in which it was a failed experiment, but I think, if I worked on it, I could come up with a decent (natural!) purple dyeing process.
Would you folks be interested in hearing that if I work it out?
I have made a deadline, and I’d really appreciate it if you’d bother me to hold me to it: I...

Public Service Announcement
I keep seeing this quote (and various incarnations of the idea) saying that if someone doesn’t make you feel respected or included, you should tell them to screw off. If someone doesn’t treat you like royalty, you should ditch them.
BUT, isn’t the very act of leaving those people doing the same thing in reverse? And I have a friend now, and a lot of people I know dislike...

the key it to trick yourself. You know when you think somethings going to happen, but you realize its irrational and you work through it. You have to convince yourself that you’re just being silly and slowly you will see that you’re right. Also the Tao Te Ching was extremely helpful for me.
