For me, the tactile act of actually writing my notes out makes me way more likely to remember what I’m writing, whereas typing means I might actually be able to read them again one day. I have yet to find a Linux app to take notes the way I want to though, so, my quest continues. I’ve tried a few different things, like Tomboy Notes, and am playing with NoteCase, so we’ll see what happens.

The problem I’ve been having with good old Linux is there are lots of apps, and they all seem to do little bits of what I want, but none of them do exactly what I want them to. I ran into this same problem with music players, and even now I’m not settled on one, rather I’m using Rhythmbox until Songbird supports my music player — though I’ve been going to war with Banshee it’s just not going to do what I want.

All of my webprojects seem to have grinded to a halt for whatever reason. No creativity left in my brain to speak of. I’m hoping to finish turning the Regulus Black Fanlisting into a character fansite within the week. I plan on doing this to all of my fanlistings, because I figure it would be nice to start a trend of having Fanlistings that actually have a purpose. I have two on deck right now, Felix the Cat and Timothy McGee (NCIS), but I’m feeling design challenged right now.

Thanks to Amber and Crystal for the comments, sometimes being mean feels fun. =)

The time stamp on this entry is GMT, or England time, Canada time it’s only about 8 o’clock. I’m hoping I’ll get to bed at a reasonable time, because trip insomnia is about to drive me completely nuts. I’m so excitedly nervous about going, then again, you’d be more surprised if I wasn’t. I’ve packed too many books — especially into my carry on. and tons of cables… speaking of which I need to charge my mp3 player tonight, or tomorrow will be a miserable day indeed!

My nerves are finally subsiding for excitement! I’m about to go on a huge adventure, meet new people, see new things and really challenge my anti-social nature. I’m really looking forward to all of this. I just need to get over the first early setbacks. I can do it, I’m too proud to come home before six months anyways!

People uninterested in my websites can skip the next paragraph or two, I finished Valour last night, at least, the fanlisting bit of it, I’d like to turn it into a proper shrine but need to finish rereading the Sweet Far Thing, to make sure I do the shrine justice. That and the Regulus fanlist needs some loving. I’m almost done with Enigma too, but I’ll post when I finish it off. The Official website for Twilight RO moved off my domain and onto its own, but I’ll still be doing design on it.

Okay, that’s the end of this entry, please comment, it makes me happy.
