It's also become an archive for anything remotely related to "content" that was once found on Villainess.net. To fully satiate your nostalgic curiousity, I've provided a blow-by-blow guide to everything that has moved/disappeared/died at Villainess.net. You'll find that in the extended entry (although, please note that most of this info is out-of-date). It's taken me two years to archive things to this point, and I'm likely to continue tweaking until the entire site satisfies my compulsion for thorough archival.

And in the meantime, I am exploiting Livejournal for all my personal website and 'blogging needs.

Will work on making this entire site (http://villainess.net/actress) read only soon. A virtual archive of everything I've done online ever I think. Will be closing various projects as well(a heads up in case anyone would like to adopt Fading Cadence). And looking at starting over or not somewhere else (supervillainess.com perhaps?). :bling:

It started in July when I switched from working 1st and 2nd shifts to 2nds exclusively. You see, on 1st shift at a Holiday Inn Express you're exposed to the glory that is a Continental Breakfast. We're talking gooey cinnamon rolls, doughy bagels w/ cream cheese spreads, muffins, danish... Much goodness. Which is pretty irresistible considering that I have the metabolism of a chipmunk and am generally starving by 9:00 if I've been up since 6.

So I think Ive been using the term "event horizon" improperly for a while. It's not that I don't get what it means (really, I've got a nice conceptual grasp of astro-physics), it's that it doesn't mean what it ought to (in a world according to me). It ought to be climactic. And end all be all. A beginning or an end. A breaking point, a turning point - the last straw, or a point of maximum saturation. It absolutely should not be an instance of limitation, a boundary. I am slightly mollified by the fact that it would just function as a bizarre sort of disappearing horizon to an observer. Because horizons partially fit the bill for beginings/turning points. Slightly mollified, you hear. Not completely.

Don't know what I'm going to do now that I can't (blissfully ignorantly) continue to use event horizon improperly. I mean, saturation point is an option, but Ksp totally lacks atmosphere/overture/impact.

I also totally don't get a singularity. I mean, I get the difference between a gravitational singularity and a naked one, but I so don't get the space-time curvature thing. Just can't invision it. This is partially because I have issues with space-time.:neutral:

American Idol is on in the background (waiting for House), and I can't help but wonder how many quality hours these people have sunk into performing in front of the bathroom mirror. Just think, if you upgraded your "singing along w/ the radio in the car" time, you too could be the next American Idol. :impressed:

More and more often these days I find myself making a choice between rest and work. And choosing rest. Just that these work days - up at 6, and an 8-hour shift... I'm finding it reeeeeallly hard to follow those days up w/ more stuff. Hmm. :neutral:

I've spent so many evenings (second and third shifts) working front desk shifts lately. They're boring, not much work, hardly any customers, because we're slow in the winter. I'd end up using the guest/lobby computer to catch up via web mail, and various on-line projects. Because nevermind the fact that I'm already at work - I can't possibly spend an 8 hour shift only covering one of my jobs. And then, two weeks ago I bought a teeny Mac G4 iBook so my work can go with me everywhere. Airport, wireless 'net card - it's super pimp. I've got all my data with me (instead of transporting bits on floppy), and I can use the satellite wireless here at work which is a million times faster than the 28 k dialup I have at home.

But it's a new computer. And I'm using the built-in trackpad and not the external mouse. And I am so tired of being out my element computer wise. It feels like it's been months since I've been able to sit down and get a lot of work done. All my projects are out of date, and this whole transition is awkward (exacerbated by weeks of using the lobby computer). I desperately want to draft new layouts for Villainess and AOA, but I haven't acclimmated to my new text editor. FORGET transitioning from PSP to Photoshop. I like change and stuff, I'm game. I just need a little space to catch my breath. Too much change, too fast.:frazzled:

I met Bill Murray last month. I'll probably back date a post later on, but it's a shame when a person is to busy to 'blog about the day she ran into Bill Murray at a teeny hotel in the middle of nowhere.

Also updated Fading Cadence - finally. Lots of new members, and no more broken images/links.

Tomorrow, I'm starting a 4 week herbal cleanse regimen that works to ... what's that word when you force deadbeat renters to move out? Not excommunicate but... dang. Whatever at verb is. The cleanse removes the yeast and other cultures that fester in your lower intestines. It's not a big deal - just that these particular cultures tend to feed on and create sugar cravings, and can exacerbate allergies. I am NOT spending another summer in allergen hell, especially not after an entire winter in head cold hell. And I've wanted to eliminate refined sugars from my diet anyways. Good timing then. Of coure, one could argue that I don't exactly need ANOTHER new element and alien habit in my life. But no one ever said I knew what was good for me.

I'd kill for just a little bit of summer. And some sun on my skin.:grieved:

And I'm a little bit lonely.

I should probably spend my next 6.5 hours updating a site, or getting .php sorted but I'm tired. It's night time, and I should be in bed. Perhaps tomorrow I'll have a half an hour to sit and bond with my mouse. For now, I'm plugging in earphones and watching Wicker Park.
