cleolindaUgh. Sort of pointlessly tired today. Dragging my feet on Matrix--it only lacks two or three really key scenes before it's complete, so of course I'm stumped. I feel like--do you ever feel like you'd just like to slough off an entire metaphysical layer of skin and shed it like a snake? I just feel heavy and dingy and dim. And of course you can say, "Oh, well, you're sick" or "Well, that's holiday food for you," but... that doesn't really fix the problem. I feel like I need to take myself to an existential tailor.

Just make sure he doesn't accidentally put you in Gregor's bug suit. The Internet doesn't want a LiveJournal version of The Metamorphosis lurking.

I'm sorry you feel like that now. As far as the Matrix---I'm sure you'll be able to handle it. Creativity, for me, comes at the oddest time.
*hugs* Good luck!

Good luck as you pull onto the finish line!
We're all praying and pulling for you!
Hope you feel the support!

Must fix Cleo!
It's seriously the best-smelling, wke-you-up, feel-alive-again stuff EVAR.
If you like, I'll send you some. :)

And of course, hugs to Cleo. Go to something wacky, that usually helps.

Date: 2005-01-01 10:14 pm (UTC)I personally feel like I've been coasting on my last spurt of emotional/spiritual maturity for a long time, and I'm about due to evolve some more, in some kind of major(ish) way, but I'm not sure how or when. And frankly I feel like The Lesson I Need To Learn is screamingly obvious to everyone but me. My karma is sometimes a letter delivered by angels but usually it's a ten-foot streamer of toilet paper trailing from my pants when I walk out of the ladies' room that I never, ever see in time to avoid public humiliation.
So yeah, I know what you mean.

yeah it's the idiot again
Date: 2005-01-01 11:00 pm (UTC)I'm really not an idiot, I swear I just don't understand.... english.... *looks around sheepishly*
Thanks

Re: yeah it's the idiot again
Date: 2005-01-02 04:54 am (UTC)Hotlinking and direct linking mean posting the picture somewhere else using the copy on her server. If you want to post them, you need to download them to your hard drive and re-upload them to your own server.
Everytime a picture is accessed (i.e. it's loaded in a web page), it uses up a little bandwidth. So, everytime you go to the "heroine addict" page on her site and the icons load, it's taking some of her bandwidth. Now, this isn't a problem (after all, her site is designed to host and let people access whatever she puts on it, including those pictures). However, if you post some of the icons in your journal and hotlink to her copies, then whenever people access your journal the icons load and use up some more of her bandwidth. Because a lot of servers have bandwidth limits, if many people do this she'll go over her limit and have to take the pictures down. So, the best thing to do if you want to post them is simply upload them to your own server. There are plenty of free image hosting sites, including Photobucket (http://www.photobucket.com/) and ImageShack (http://imageshack.us/).
Um, I hope that was helpful. Feel free to ask if you have any more questions, I like explaining things :)

Date: 2005-01-02 09:04 am (UTC)I feel like that all the time.. but I find that a nice cup of hot cocoa (or hot apple cider - both work) while doing a bit of stream-of-conciousness, soul searching writing helps greatly. :)
