Does anyone know

how to download LJ archives? The way LJ tells you basically brings it down in an unreadable excel file (well it's a Cvs file that excel can open)? Might want to write those memoirs some day. Seriously. finding a bunch of old diaries in a box this summer reminded me how many years I've kept one and in 2004 I moved it online and never wrote any of it elsewhere. I should like to have it I think.

I just got the first hint my novel is in the editing queue. They project Nov. 4th to be my day to get my edits. My brother's birthday. Sigh. Seriously? I have no idea how I'm going to do three rounds of edits by Jan. I guess I won't be having that surgery after all.

I also wanted to wish a2zmom a happy birthday but I know with what is going on it's not going to be a very happy one. I hope things turn out for the best.

I got two lectures finalized, a test written and got my novel created on nano. You know, the one I'll be too busy with edits to write. Oh well. What happens, happens.

I can't believe what I found on youtube. It takes me back and right now I need that. I need to be back to where I was happy once. The production value on this always did suck but I thought it was just my Walkman. Apparently not. This sounds like the tape is half warped but I'm just THRILLED that they're up on line.

Watch on YouTube

My favorites? Banned from Argo & tell the Captain

and then there's this. The production value is better. I miss Elfquest some times. I haven't reread this is almost 20 years. I should do it over Christmas. I still have them back home.

Watch on YouTube

This takes me back to Waynesburg College. These were always in my pack to go into my Walkman. I walked all over God's creation back then and I never did like silence. I would love to create characters as memorable and loved as the ones in either franchise...

Aw, man, I had all those songs memorized once.

I suppose it could be worse you know
I could be stuck outside
With rain and wind to (something) me
And bird lime on my hide

hhahahaha I did too. Listening to them now it's like wow...it will be like reading the story for the first time, I've forgotten so much since the holt's were never allowed to play with canon

You do know we have that on CD now, don't you? It's on my iPod. :)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I didn't until I saw it in the comments on you tube. guess I need to look this up

[wildrider.livejournal.com]

I don't even remember where I got it now -- it's been so long since we've been to a convention, I'm sure that's not it.

(I digitized a number of old filks myself, though; Leslie Fish's Rudyard Kipling tapes and Fly Columbia!)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I wish I had had the ability to digitize a lot of mine before they succumbed to time

ETA- Someone on Amazon wants 90$ for the cd of this. (another is only asking 23. I'll just keep listening on youtube for free)

[wildrider.livejournal.com]

Well, hell, I'll rip you a copy for nothin'.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, thanks. I'd pay for the cost of materials and shipping

Where are you downloading them to? I know to DW, it's pretty simple, but that's all I can tell you (because I did it so long ago).

Do an online search, it'll probably be simpler to figure out than going through LJ itself.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

my computer. using LJ's FAQ on how to do it.

the rest suggestion using download clients. I'm not even sure I know what that is let alone which to trust

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Ahhh, okay. I've never looked at that.

Hmmmm. Yeah, I wouldn't know who to trust, either.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah I know someone here has done this before. I just don't remember who

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

The ones I remember talking about it aren't here any longer. -_-
