for the second time today because of this damn wordpress/mint fuckup. easy, my ass.
i like to buy books for no reason at all. enough to satisfy some urge within me. i just browser and pick. today i bought: the history of love (nicole krauss), it’s not chick lit, the best american nonrequired reading 2006, and women on the edge. in execrable taste i also bought: an assembly such as this, duty and desire, and these three remain. all by pamela aidan. i haven’t read a good short story in quite some time. i hope i find something of worth. yes, i know the titles are supposed to be underlined.
today is a good day. i’ve been taking the whole weekend off from school-related things. worked a little on my links script. making the admin cp validate and look a lot nicer in up-to-date browsers. yay. maybe i’m strange. i like people to link to me when they use my scripts but i won’t refuse to release a script because there’s a good chance people will forget or refuse to link to me. anyway, it’s rather ugly when someone hardcodes (in javascript, no less) a link back to the script site or even encodes it so you can’t really edit how it looks like. on a forum it doesn’t matter but if it’s just a snippet it’s pretty fucking ugly. i’m all for sticking credits on the bottom or on a neat box on the side or something.
i also made a digital art. i wanted to do another postcard but this was what came up. found some old pictures of auschwitz on my computer and i had an idea. certainly nothing to do with nazis or the holocaust they carried out.

Nice to see my brushes in action! Thanks for the link, it’s nice to see people giving credit even if they don’t have to. I hope the users of your script will do so too.
Sometimes buying a random book fills me with something, like a chance to do something all on your own accidentally…unless it turns out to be terrible. If that makes sense.
I wish I could take weekends off of school related things. I hope yours is a relaxing one.
I really like your artwork, by the way.
Stefan – you’re welcome. (: i like giving credit because then other people can use good brushes/stock/etc. i hope the people who use my scripts link back, too. thanks.
Diana – thanks, it was very relaxing. especially after a lot of weekends of writing essays and working on my two presentations. i hope you can get a full weekend off from school.
i completely understand about buying random books. that’s a good way to put it.
thanks for the comment on the artwork.
