I've got the commentary on a Jem episode going, it's the writer of the series...
...and she says she highly disapproves of internet file-swapping it's harmful to the industry etc.
 
I'd just like to say that were it not for internet file-swapping and things, my interest in Jem would never have been re-kindled, and I'd have never spent the money to buy the dvds.
Thankyou.




...*dies giggling* but she apologises for the Rio-kicking-over-the-bush scene, it was never in the script, so that makes me feel a little better. *g*

..and it turns out most of the animation *was* done in Japan and Korea, so that explains a lot. like, y'know, the fact that it's good. *g*



...and DAMNIT blogger changed the setup AGAIN and I don't like it. It's geared for n00bs and I feel somewhat insulted. *giggles* I can *handle* my own font color tags, thankyouverymuch.... ...and what's actually pissing me off is that it's changing the tags, I just came back to edit this and it changed them all into annoying complicated span tags instead of simple lil font ones. >_<; grr.

 
ok forget that friggin' guys are over there working on the addition to her house again, can't mow 'til they leave around 4, so let's just hope it's not raining then.
for now...
DVDS!!!!!!!!!

 
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*bouncing and spazzing*

I *said* they could be here by the time I woke up but I didn't really believe it but omfg I was getting some juice and looked into the breezeway and BOX FROM AMAZON WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


..the box for Jem *IS* ridiculously terrible, pathetically drawn characters everywhere that're borderline scary they're so bad. this made me very sad cos Rhino usually does such an awesome job.

HOWEVER.

The Monkees dvds MORE than makes up for it omfg *bows to Rhino*. Happyhappyhappyhappy.



..and I need to go mow before it starts raining again. >_<; ..time for the fastest mowing EVER. *giggles*

^_________________________________________^

<3s to amazon, ups, and the internet. conceivably, I could have my dvds by the time I wake up.

 
DS is again updated, a few desktops and like..idek. somewhere around 40 new buddy icons, as I hadn't uploaded any since like, November. -_-;;;

 
*diiiiiiiiiies giggling* So, I'm updating DS (right, REAL productive to be watching anime at the same time..subtitled anime, as always ^^; ). And I notice that geocities now gives me happy lil stats on my webpages that I can check. ('least I don't remember that option being there, so I'm assuming it's a semi-recent addition. either that, or it's just that, y'know, I have a set goal when I go into that account so I don't even bother looking around anymore. *giggles*) So I check the stats on the page for my U2 desktops.

Top search word used to find this page 65.00% typed "chalk filter"


..after a fit of laughter, it occured to me that this's probably in reference to the photoshop filter, which I must've used on at least one of those. But still. *giggling* That's..just..wow.

 
Which reminds me, look for updates on DS soon, I've a few desktops..ehm, and some day I'll catch up on all the new buddy icons. -_-;
Got one needed permission on posting a desktop, but I need the other and I keep forgetting. ^^; Megs? *giggles* you'll read it here before I remember to ask you. The one I made using the pic I took of you down by the ocean, would you mind? ^_^

 
I should set up a paypal account for donations on all the time and effort I put into things for people. *giggles* idek how many icons wallpapers etc. I've made...not that I really mind. *G* I love helping out friends.
Just some days it's aggrevating, like after working an hour or so on a desktop only to THEN find out that it was supposed to be a background for an lj..things like that. -_-;
But really, goodness, I could go into business (*cough*yeahright) here.. Megs' lj (though in her case, she had all the ideas, I just actualised them ^_^), new background for my sister's lj, new background and a few icons for shocker, far too many icons for my sister in general..
I have a love/hate relationship with lj backgrounds though, I mean while it's a nice clear set-up for a good pic, it's annoying as hell working around the text boxes, which you can only completely move if you've a paid account and I don't fecking think so.

Despite fears created by the initial email received, my dvds shipped today from Kentucky - they'll be here before the 20th or 21st. *G*
(Hooray for the internet.)


So, advice to the world at large: ALWAYS LABEL YOUR PHOTOS. Like, just put a date on the envelope, even if it's just the month or year. Someone will thank you profusely at some point.
(Mom, thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou I'd be soooo insanely doomed if you hadn't. *giggles*)

Also.. leave negatives in their happy little spot in the photo envelope. And let them stay there. So no-one has to cry years later at them being dusty, misplaced, scratched, or *bent*... *shudders, whimpering*


Definitely spent a good bunch of hours going thru a few albums, scanning a few things to possibly toy with later (and to make Megs giggle in the meantime *g*), then going through the two boxes of largely unsorted photos, most thankfully in labelled envelopes but still a good pile floating loose.. but what ones had dates are all in order now, at least. ^_^

Once upon a time, I couldn't kill people who wanted to dress me up. *giggles* So, bizarre as it is, I was cute.

However, this doesn't mean I wasn't still plotting something. *G*

 
In 5-9 business days, I will have the Monkees' first season and the first and second season of Jem on dvd.
^__________________________^
<3s to amazon.com for free shipping, and cheaper than buying direct from rhino (tho I feel like a bit of a traitor, buying Monkees things from anyone but rhino..but there again *giggles* it's still their product, they still make money so s'all good).
yay for summer jobs, and yay for me resisting temptation to buy randomcrap all this time and saving up for these. *g*
