[mood] hopeful
[music] Sting || After the Rain Has Fallen

From fyarr:
I'm going to pimp this now and hope people pay attention.. this is for the chatters of Warp1.net. This isn't for me, this isn't for anyone's personal gain.. this is for the benefit of the community and the people that have come to be a part of it.



Check out the Warp1.net Donate-a-thon 2006. We don't ask for money very often.. or.. ever at all, but we know how frustrating it can be to lag. We know how frustrating a slow site can be. I want to help change that.. but I can't do it alone. I need your help, donations, support, friends with lots of money.. you know what I'm talking about.

Don't do it for me. Do it for Warp1.net.

(Or, xavier_wp1's version, which is much more amusing. *lol*)

*puts on Jerry Lewis telethon voice* There are times when you see something that just pulls at your heartstrings. And...a chat site in need of an upgrade...why...it just gets ya right in the 110010101. We're not asking for much. Just pennies on the dollar really...to make your chatting experience the best it can be. Reach into your pockets...for just dollars a day you too can help a starving Sys Admin get that new motherboard. For the price of a cup of coffee you too can let your favorite chat site upgrade it's hardware. Just think...2 cups of coffee will help send your post rocketing through the internet at a faster speed. Oh sure...sure..there's kool-aid stands but...you have to get permits for it now adays...bake sales - health license.

*shows a picture of a sad looking motherboard* Please...won't you help. It's good people like you who help donate time and money to making this a wonderful site...give Petey here some shiny new gear. Any help is good help...except box tops...they're not allowing cash refunds for those...


Yes. We've sold out. We're doing what we've never really done before: asking for donations. *pause for gasps and outbursts of outrage* The truth is that the main server is old, and it's only getting older. We've patched up the old darling's battle wounds about as much as we can. And, quite honestly, she's getting slow.

Now, we're lucky in that we don't have to pay hosting or bandwidth. And it's a good thing, too, because the site wouldn't exist if we had to. We just can't afford that, purely because we don't tend to ask for donations for things. But now we are. We want to build a new machine to house the site on, one that we expect will last for quite some time to come, one that will have the power and memory and space and speed to deal (without the dreaded lag) with things like the recent "oldies bash" which boasted a total of 73 separate people in one room (many of them at the same time), which I'm sure has to be a record for the site.

So...yeah. If you're involved with the site regularly, and have some spare cash, consider donating. After all, in the end, it'll be yourself you're helping out...and your friends...and anyone else that uses the site regularly.

Thank you. =o)

  The Quick and Painless ENNEAGRAM Test
[mood] contemplative
[music] Maroon 5 || This Love

I posted this in my LJ, but I'm posting it here, too...just cuz..

the Questioner
Test finished!
you chose CY - your Enneagram type is SIX.

"I am affectionate and skeptical"

Questioners are responsible, trustworthy, and value loyalty to family, friends, groups, and causes. Their personalities range broadly from reserved and timid to outspoken and confrontative.

How to Get Along with Me

  • Be direct and clear.
  • Listen to me carefully.
  • Don't judge me for my anxiety.
  • Work things through with me.
  • Reassure me that everything is OK between us.
  • Laugh and make jokes with me.
  • Gently push me toward new experiences.
  • Try not to overreact to my overreacting.

What I Like About Being a Six

  • being committed and faithful to family and friends
  • being responsible and hardworking
  • being compassionate toward others
  • having intellect and wit
  • being a nonconformist
  • confronting danger bravely
  • being direct and assertive

What's Hard About Being a Six

  • the constant push and pull involved in trying to make up my mind
  • procrastinating because of fear of failure; having little confidence in myself
  • fearing being abandoned or taken advantage of
  • exhausting myself by worrying and scanning for danger
  • wishing I had a rule book at work so I could do everything right
  • being too critical of myself when I haven't lived up to my expectations

Sixes as Children Often

  • are friendly, likable, and dependable, and/or sarcastic, bossy, and stubborn
  • are anxious and hypervigilant; anticipate danger
  • form a team of "us against them" with a best friend or parent
  • look to groups or authorities to protect them and/or question authority and rebel

  • are neglected or abused, come from unpredictable or alcoholic families, and/or take on the fearfulness of an overly anxious parent

Sixes as Parents

  • are often loving, nurturing, and have a strong sense of duty
  • are sometimes reluctant to give their children independence
  • worry more than most that their children will get hurt
  • sometimes have trouble saying no and setting boundaries

  • CX (TWO)
  • CZ (ONE)

    [mood] pissed off
    [music] Nicole Nordeman || Every Season

    I wasn't really going to write much of anything here anymore. I was just going to use this journal for watching a few other journals here at GJ. and for posting in my graphics community here. But...this is something that I had to get out, and I'm putting it here because it involves GJ more than LJ at the moment.

    Seeing the beautiful blue animated butterfly icon my friend Tess made for me in someone else's user icons (and uncredited as well) is very depressing, and a little irksome. Seeing it there like that, when I expressly put DO NOT TAKE in the keyword comments, is... Well, I guess I have to remember, once again, that people really suck. I willingly share damn near every graphic I make/manipulate, and often even try to accomodate people when they're seeking something made...even when they make a request that seems a lot more like an expectation or demand. I rarely ask credit, and never flat out demand it. But, damnit, when something is made for me by someone else who hasn't given permission for that to be shared around, and then taken without even a damn word, I see red. I can put up with a lot of things, but a basic lack of respect for the hard work of others and flat out rudeness are two things I don't deal with well...or at all. And the worst of it is that the person will likely never see this, or will never realize it's about them even if they do...and will certainly never seek to rectify it.

    Just tempts me to stop with graphics. Why bother sharing my hard work with people who only end up so rude and inconsiderate? Hell, it makes me want to just stay away from people altogether, because I'm so sick of the selfish and self-centered attitudes so many seem to flaunt these days. Yeah...why bother indeed...

    I know one damn thing, though. The first time I see the icon I made of Tess' artwork that she worked hard on for me being used by someone else, I will go so fucking postal on that person's ass that they'll regret ever fucking with me. Ever.

    Fuck. -_-

    ~Muse
    Losing faith in humanity one moment at a time.

    P.S. Tess, I'm sorry that it had to be your icon. I marked it as clearly as I could. People just can't read and/or just don't give a flying fuck, I guess. =o(

    This journal's no longer going to be used for any sort of posting. The exception to that is that I will still be using it to post in my graphics community. Journaling just...seems a waste of time anymore. I'm sure I'll still be reading the posts from friends, those that post entries, but otherwise...I think I'm just done with it. For me, it's utterly pointless.

    Light to Unite for World AIDS Day

    Avert.org

    World AIDS Campaign

    UNAIDS

    For too many people in the world, this issue comes to light once a year, on December 1st. For me, this is an ever-present issue and one that I can't help but to support whole-heartedly. No, I don't have AIDS. I don't have HIV. I've known people, my late husband among them, who have died from complications of this disease, people who should have had many more years left. People who should have been able to watch their children grow up. People who had loved ones left behind to deal with the pain and loss.

    AIDS must be fought. And the best weapon we have is awareness.

    I have (most) of the design in place for the new graphics journal: [info]__grafix__

    Not happy with the little banner thing at the top, but..eh. What can ya do, y'know? I might pester someone or other in our little community into helping me with a better one. And I still have to fill out the info. But..that's going to become the main home of my graphics up for grabs, when I post them. *nod* The comm will be lacking in free layouts and possibly glittery names and such (unless one of us knows how to do that stuff and I don't know about it yet *l*). But anyway...there it is if anyone wants to have a look.

    (And, yes, I did just edit an already existing style at GJ. But that's because I'm a putz and can only edit styles, not make them myself. Custom styles pwnz0r me hardcore. And I'll be losing my access to Cherry Styles' stuff along with my LJ paid time. Bah.)

      Wish/Gift List
    [mood] cold
    [music] Masquerade || Free My Mind

    This is really just an ongoing list for me to note things I've seen that I'm really interested in getting, or perhaps just things I want that have to do with my online stuff (webpages, journals, etc.). This is in no way a plea for people to buy me things, despite the contact email/info listed. That stuff is there at the prodding of a couple of people, and as an aid for someone already looking for gifting ideas for me.

    That said, take it as you will. This list will probably change, and updates will be made as my tastes/interests change, and as I no longer have a desire/want for things listed here.

    To the Wise Ones,
    To the Great All,
    Above and Below,
    Without and Within;

    Help us remember
    that the jerk who cut us off in traffic last night
    is a single mother
    who worked nine hours that day
    and is rushing home to cook dinner,
    help with homework,
    do the laundry,
    and spend a few precious moments
    with her children.

    Help us to remember
    that the pierced, tattooed, disinterested young man
    who can't make change correctly
    is a worried 19-year-old college student,
    balancing his apprehension over final exams
    with his fear of not getting his student loans for next semester.

    Remind us that the scary looking bum,
    begging for money in the same spot every day
    (who really ought to get a job!),
    is a slave to addictions
    that we can only imagine
    in our worst nightmares.

    Help us to remember
    that the old couple
    walking annoyingly slow through the store aisles
    and blocking our shopping progress
    are savoring this moment, knowing that,
    based on the biopsy report she got back last week,
    this will be the last year
    that they go shopping together.

    Remind us each day that,
    of all the gifts You give us,
    the greatest gift is love.

    It is not enough
    to share that love
    with those we hold dear.

    Open our hearts
    not to just those
    who are close to us,
    but to all humanity.

    Let us be slow to judge
    and quick to forgive,
    show patience,
    empathy and love.

    I got this today in email, and I wanted to share and remember it..

    White Dragon. You have the spirit of a White
    Dragon. You often feel loney, and despair, but
    you're loving and compasionate. You would
    rather help, than harm. You are much more than
    you seem, yet won't show anyone, unless they
    show interest. Often times you stick to
    yourself, and let others lead on.
