and then there were none

Woke up to find my face towels on the floor, pulled out of the decorative bin I use since my bathroom has no storage in it. glares out at the three furballs. Hmmmm who did this. While I'm in there getting ready for the morning, Soul runs in and starts thrusting his head into the towels in a violent orgasmic claiming session then he pulls them out one at a time with his teeth. I kick him in the tail.

I continue getting ready and Roy screams to go out. Every time I obey his demand and open the door he runs the opposite direction. Kanda is in the window messing up the curtain. Sigh. I go into the kitchen to get my lunch set up. This is when I notice that the litterbox is standing on end and there's litter across half the kitchen. Twitch. I sweep it into the corner for dealing fully with when i come home. I keep going past the table as I work and Soul keeps popping out to grab me and run. Roy's still howling.

Didn't you have three cats? Me? No. Hey come look at the 3 new rose bushes I bought. I was digging in the backyard and thought you know what looks good here...roses.

Work was frustrating but I shared the insanity. trying to get my first online quiz up and the software was being such a pain in the ass it took IT and I a half hour to half ass it up onto the net, not in the right spot before saying it's 5 o'clock screw it.

I get home to get a phone call from my insurance for my wellness coach. I do this program (keeps the insurance happy) and it's not a bad idea (better for someone who knows less than I since I get impatient) but they're going to call me next week for the same thing. Um why? well you called us today. YES BECAUSE you called me first.

Sad to say guys, the Temple, Caleb, Agni novella got rejected but I need to look at former contracts and see if I can resubmit for a non-themed anthology or am I hosed for the next 2 years with this story. But thanks anyhow to everyone who helped beta it.

Hey, my flash fic with Hikaru and Liam is still up on jana_denardo feel free to stop by and vote if you like it.

I signed up for the halloween exchange on fmagiftexchange. if you don't know what it is, check it out. This is always fun. You can get fic, art, icons, fsts etc.

and I'm over my monthly gigabyte allotment in less than 3 weeks. I'm gonna owe verizon a ton. i hate this.

and today I tried the strengthening exercises for the first time in a while and they were so easy. I'm getting stronger. I could barely do them the last time I tried.

Happy 45th birthday Star Trek! I still love you.




I love the little microscope and I really want this illustration. Like seriously

I just have one thing to say about your cats. INSANE! No wait...several words. Soul is certifiably insane, Roy is confused, and Kanda....I dunno....still working on that one.

Ooooh I'd love to have that illustration as well!

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

I want ALL the art. SO COOL.

Mom's laughing at your three rosebushes > three cats idea.

[yuukihikari]

I love you too Star Trek <3

omg that's some cat chaos... the litter box, aiee ><

Lovely Mr. Skeleton. I have three months to make Mr Skeleton my best friend LOL.

[bay115.livejournal.com]

Ack over your cat problem. Chaos, indeed. x_x

Sorry to hear the novella didn't get accepted. Good luck submitting it in other anthology, though!

That skeleton sketch is indeed awesome.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yay star trek


seriously. no more cats. all dead.

he's a fantastic skeleton. I love how one arm is not in anatomical position and they actually drew the elbow joint showing that

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

that's actually not art on the table, it's pressed weeds

it's a good idea

[sillymagpie.livejournal.com]

With your luck, burial wouldn't be enough. Undead zombie cats!

I love that illustration, too.

Yay for growing stronger!

[wildrider.livejournal.com]

If I'm not mistaken, that skeleton is what would be inside of Adam in some famous painting of Adam & Eve in the Garden (I'm too lazy to look it up right now); the silhouette around him looks VERY familiar. And that would explain the lack of anatomical positioning!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

they are nuts.

it's cool

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

that could be. he's just fun

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

snort. you are so right.

it's a winner

big yay

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Yes, I saw it was pressed weeds. That makes it art, too.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

they all want to die

thanks

it is

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

ah to me, it's just science

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Science-y art. Arty science. :D

[silvrethorn.livejournal.com]

Ha ha cats. Soul loves you. Why else would he claim your face towels and pee on your purse? He wants you all to himself.

I guess the no tie-ins edict is your call to become more versatile. Or something.

Ooo, skeleton is on canvas! Must be a heavy-duty teaching model. What is that in the jar on the mantel? Is it a snake, or guts? And I'll fight you for the little microscope.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I suspect mostly Soul wants to die now

i think what it is, is that these projects are anthologies and they don't want people to feel like they need to buy something else to get the full story. I'm assuming (hoping) that this doesn't apply to stand alones because that would be shooting themselvesin the foot. Erotica readers seem as bad as mystery ones with series

i believe it's a snake but i don't remember.it was a teaching model yes and that scope is mine i tell you

[nefelokokkygia.livejournal.com]

hnnnggg that skeleton WANT

I feel your pain with the IT issues; I just moved into college on monday and turns out the network had been hacked and had a really bad virus on it that would basically destroy your computer if you even just connected to the network at all; took them until wednesday to completely fix it and the blackboard program for basically everything ever for classes and stuff is still borking on and off since

Cats

[idic-writer.livejournal.com]

Mine routinely pull out my DVDs from the shelf. I almost took a pic of Dingle the other day lying in the middle of them, as if to say he couldn't decide whether to watch DS9 or TOS. :D

[bob_fish.livejournal.com]

Love the microscope and the illo. I would gladly have those in my office.

Sorry to hear about the anthology, but onwards and upwards. Good luck finding a home for it!

Glad to hear your shoulder's getting stronger.

And I signed up for giftexchange too. I figured that since we're just gifting drabbles, icons and sketches, I can do my bit without too much time commitment (I'm so overcommitted at the moment).

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

aren't they cool?

well it turns out that there was an executive decision mid-stream to disallow sequels/tie-ins so I'm going to look into resubmitting

me too

oh i hear that trust me

Re: Cats

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

hahahaha that's funny. Iktomi, the cat I had in the 90's did that with books

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

isn't it cool?

oh geez, what a pain in the ass

[nefelokokkygia.livejournal.com]

I also like the interesting patterns in the ribs, along with the inside-out arm on the right

we didn't have internet for almost three days and with blackboard on the fritz now our emails get eaten every once in a while since the webmail is connected to that too; just not been a very good start of the semester for the IT people

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i'm not sure what that is, foxing or a hint of organ. (the arm's in anatomical position, which is a test question for my crew)

well emails get eaten here routinuely. there is a messaging system with blackboard but i don't use it
