Celestine Ravencroft A big thank you to whoever cleaned up the Artist Street sub forum. It was badly in need of it. Keep up the good work as we get ready for RO this year. emotion_yatta

Be nice if we could get an actual generalized banner again for the intro post in the b-day thread.

Hot Caffeinated Cree If I were better at graphics I'd try it. ;-; Well, since we do have several people in the guild who are artist types, maybe we could try to get a banner by having a mini contest. People could draw the banner or use an image editing program (heck even MS Paint works) and then we vote for the all around favorite. It'd be a great way to leave a personal mark on the guild and get more involvement in an ongoing activity we have. We've got to get more member contribution and activity somehow. Mini contests and events may be the way to go. Which reminds me, we still have to work on planning for Chibi's Magical Girl month she requested for April.

That is a good idea. :3 I mean I've made graphics/banners before I'm just not the best at it. A contest would be a good way to get some guild involvement again. I do want to plan a lot for Magical Girl Month too. .w.; I want to do some things I didn't do the first time.

Totally unrelated: Someone just gifted me that Frigid War Hymn you had quoted me about in the GCD. That was so unexpected. eek emotion_kirakira Back to related: Yeah, I hope we can really get some good contests and events going this time. If you need any help, just let me know. Chances are I won't keep anything from the next Loyal rig to open (since apparently people voted for spooky junk) so I'll gladly donate anything I don't intend to keep. I'll see what all I can keep pulling form Fafnir's Peak in LK as well.

I'll let you know, and feel free to host any contests of your own that you'd want. I'm only semi-excited for the loyal rig, but I'm not a fan of spooky myself. I'm hoping it's actually a bit of each theme, but mostly spooky. If that's the case we might still have some hope. I really wanted fantasy to win. I hope there's a new area for Valentine's. Maybe a floating area.

Maybe a floating area. See, I was voting for the fantasy theme too since technically you could cram Star Wars under fantasy (but I suppose they narrow-mindedly think fantasy is only wizards and World of Warcraft type stuff. Geez.). Maybe next time they'll have a theme vote again and leave spooky out. It is a good way to get site input. I just think they goofed up on themes by putting in spooky this time of year. It should have been romance instead...or something. *shrug* Anyway, I'm not sure what they'll do for V-Day this year. Seems like it only gets a minor bit of attention. A sort of cloud city thing would be cool, but I'm not going to make any bets on it. I'm just hoping the freebie items for V-Day are better this year than in previous years (I hardly ever like the freebies for V-Day and end up selling them most of the time). What I really hope is that they'll make a big deal out of the DVD release for Star Wars this year (it would be epic to have that on May the 4th). Next year is the 40 year anniversary of Episode 4, so I really want to see a bit more hype going for it. Yet another recolor for the Plasma Gear item I think would be in order, and this time they should do pink and gold (or black and white).

Okay I have had it with some people in this world. So I'm at the hospital with my mom again this year to get her ready for her next hip surgery next week. She needs a blood draw in case they need to do a transfusion during surgery and we didn't have time to park and enter the building together so I dropped her off and parked my car. No huge deal there. So I get to where I have to check in and of course there's a small line. Normally that's not a huge deal. However, the guy before me, who was likely with his own daughter, was making it a huge deal. First he turns to me and is all, "They won't take me because I'm black." So I politely respond, "You're here first so they will." Now there's a man and a woman working the desk and when the woman is available his daughter starts to head for her and then turns to see him refusing to move. The lady at the desk calls "Ma'am" which I'm sure meant the woman with the guy but again she doesn't move and he doesn't move and instead tells me to go ahead. By the time I stupidly finish explaining that my mom was there for a pre-op blood draw the man behind the desk becomes available and the black gentlemen looks at him and says, "You're going to take me now? I'm allowed to come up there? You're not going to ignore me right?" He still wouldn't move and he still was trying to prove the hospital wanted to kick out black people and was racist against them. He was being uncooperative on purpose. Just UGH!
EDIT: So it turns out, as my mom and I were leaving after her tests and blood draw were over with, the guy has done this before. One of the women at the check in desk was talking to a couple of guys from security about him. It sounded like it was about him because that seemed to be the only issue they dealt with since I went into the hospital. Now I wonder if the woman was even with him.
(That better explains that status I left in the My Gaia there)

Feeling much better after taking my mini-hiatus here. Being woozy and sickly for about two weeks wasn't any fun.
Now, uh... um, please, Denver? Please don't throw the pigskin over Manning's head tomorrow. I do not want a repeat of Superb Owl 48. Thank you.

Have myself a long day at the hospital again this year. My mom's getting her other hip worked on. Hopefully what happened last time won't happen this time. Her doctor is confident he'll be able to prevent that from happening this time.

MOOOOOOOOOOCKS!!!!!!!! I need to compare some colors and see how they match up with some other things when I'm on my laptop to see if I need to request the color be a little lighter or not. Right now it looks a little closer to crepe (lile my shorts) and I'm hoping it can be a color that goes a bit better with the Navys and Amaranths and Dusky Roses and other colors for a lot of good basic combos. I'm not disappointed with them in the least just wnating to make sure they're actually what I have pictured in my mind. emotion_yatta
EDIT: This brings up a big question. If I get my item this month do we want to move Senshi month from April to March? Can we plan things in time for March or are we better off having it be April?
