Medical
Hobbling and fatigued, but I'll live. *chugs coffee*

Blogathon
Still at $479. Sponsor me! I'll make it worth your while. :)

Those of you who are waiting til you have money: you don't have to pay til *after* the Blogathon! So go sponsor now. Pay on your August 1 paycheck. *nods*

Fellow Blogathonners: I've updated my big Blogathon post to include those who commented. If you're doing this, comment here! And tell me if you have a theme. Like [livejournal.com profile] boutell's movie in 24 hours. Or [livejournal.com profile] yunatwilight's nude pics of hot chicks (and also of me), for sponsors only.

Link Soup
* Topoware - This set made of bowls, salad plates and dinner plates see the lines reappear in playful ways to label your dining habits. Each piece adresses a different issue or poses a different question. Are you hungry, very hungry or done? Are you modest or greedy? Do you have a mom/dad or child portion?

* Skull-A-Day. Artist makes a different skull image each day for a year; he uses things like tea, old CDs, vegetables...

* How to master your e-mail inbox. I have over 750 e-mails in there. I need to be abiding by these commandments.

Daily Science
Armed with an array of increasingly sophisticated technology, including fMRIs and PET scans, investigators have begun to figure out exactly what goes wrong in the brain of an addict--which neurotransmitting chemicals are out of balance and what regions of the brain are affected. They are developing a more detailed understanding of how deeply and completely addiction can affect the brain, by hijacking memory-making processes and by exploiting emotions.

Daily Scent-Stuff
Mandrake Apothecary: The Elements )

Altogether - meh. BPAL's scents are stronger and more complex, and actually quite a bit cheaper. I like Hekate, but I don't think I'll be shopping at Mandrake in the future.

Now I go shower and fetch Mouse from the airport! (Flight delay. Nyargh.)

We'd just finished a bunch of housework; in the heat of upstairs, I'd removed my shirt. Now? I was on my couch, eating cold pizza.

[livejournal.com profile] mgrasso: "Your shirt's off, your hair's up, you're so comfortable in your own skin... you have a breeze coming in the window, you're petting your cat... your life is good."

Me: "It really is."

[livejournal.com profile] mgrasso: "You just look really good right now."

Me, half-joking: "Take a picture!"

...jinkies. What topics should we have on the forum? o.O

Yes, I know this stuff is terribly boring. We're doing back-end stuffs today/tonight. We'll shut up soon, when we switch gears to writing/arting.

So I know I want in-character and out-of-character sections on the forum. You can role-play! But I'm not sure what topics out to be there. I am not really a forum-based organism.

What do you want, dear reader?
