New lj thing and they make it so that random users can log into your account from a comment (or some way that I don't get)*. LJ is so efficient. Guess they fixed it but I just wonder at the competence of livejournal sometimes. Here is the link to the explanation of the fix on that. I think it only lasted for a few minutes or so.

Needed something to post and thought that was post-worthy.

Oh and we had another earthquake this morning at 5:30 am. I was up because I was up an hour before that for some reason. Really disconcerted and worried about THE BIG ONE. Going to supply the house here and prepare just have not had time. My luck will have that the BIG ONE hits before I can get to the store.

Ugh. Just ugh. I am finding people at work annoying but I think that is stress. I also think that people have not adjusted to the career advancement I have made and keep asking me to do stoopid shit. So there is that. You know, the stoopid shit thing. Really annoying. Pardon the language and mild rant. Can't post that on FB because I have lots of work folks on there. Gotta be nice there.

Guess this was a negative post but I am tired and feeling well, peckish. :P Feel free to complain or whine in a comment. I will be sympathetic.

Event goes tomorrow and I am nervous. Hope it goes well. Ahhh.

*feel free to correct my explanation of the LJ thing.

And here we are. Here is a cool pic for the Bunday post.

In other news...
This week coming up is a busy one. I have an event in Seattle and a trip there and then my awards ceremony coming up two weeks after that. Lots doing there. I am looking forward to this month being over and having some down time actually. I also have my awards ceremony for my Chancellor's Award this week so that is cool. That happens on the 15th.

On LJ and downtime. I have been able to get on most times and it is only mildly inconvenient so I am staying here. I think it is good that they support those journals and freedom of expression in Russia and no one has actually talked about what that means really. I am proud of LJ for supporting dissident writers and those that post against the status quo there. So good on them. I am not moving. I do have a DW journal - "phyncke" over there but I am patient here and think that LJ will sort it out. I think we can give LJ some loyalty for supporting political causes and the fact that I have been here for years. This is a rough patch for them and where is our sense of community? So that is where I am on that. Staying right here, actually. That is it. In the big perspective of things, what is a small inconvenience when there are dissidents posting writings there against the Kremlin. In some small way...I feel a part of that and good for LJ for supporting their bloggers over there. You can friend me on DW but I am pretty much on LJ. If you want to archive your journal to your computer, there is a nifty utility called LJ Archive which allows you to do that in a readable format.

Cheers to all and hope you had a great weekend.

Has anyone noticed that there is a new icon editor function in place so that when you load an icon you have to select it and crop it? I don't know about you, but I make my own icons ready to load and I don't want this on LJ. I think it should be optional. I want a ticky box where I can turn this crap off. If you know there is a way to turn it off, please let me know.


EDIT:

It only does that when your icon is too big. Ha. Silly me. Anyways. I was two pixels off in my icon. *sheepishly embarrassed look*

NEVER MIND!!! Next post will be an icon offer for the f-list. I made cool one.
